Sandra M. Oliver-McNeil, DNP, ACNP-BC, FACC, JACC: Case Reports Associate Editor, is joined by author Victor A. Ferrari, MD, FACC discussing this study from Ravindra et al presented at ACC.25 and published in JACC: Case Reports. This clinical vignette highlights the case of a 62-year-old male who presented with worsening dyspnea and was ultimately found to have constrictive pericarditis secondary to primary pericardial mesothelioma. The use of multimodality imaging can facilitate early diagnosis of this rare condition, helping to initiate treatment options for an otherwise high-mortality disease.
Andrea Scotti, MD, JACC: Case Reports Deputy Editor, is joined by authors Richard Carrick, MD, PhD and Drew Bidmead, BS discussing this study from Carrick et al presented at ACC.25 and published in JACC: Case Reports. Left atrial dissection is a rare, but potentially serious, complication that most commonly arises following mitral valve surgeries. In this report, we describe an unusual case of left atrial dissection that occurred after multi-valve surgical replacement in a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. While permanent pacemaker placement was required due to recurrent episodes of complete heart block, the patient was otherwise managed safely using a conservative approach without surgical re-intervention.
Mary Norine Walsh, MD, MACC, JACC: Case Reports Deputy Editor, is joined by author Alexander C Sacher, DO, discussing this study from Sacher et al presented at ACC.25 and published in JACC: Case Reports. Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is known for thrombotic events and pregnancy complications, but its association with myocarditis is rare and poorly understood. In this case, a 44-year-old female presented with acute chest tightness, elevated cardiac biomarkers, and severe anemia. Diagnostic workup revealed ST-segment changes on ECG, preserved left ventricular function on echocardiography, and myocardial inflammation on cardiac MRI, suggestive of acute myocarditis. Positive antiphospholipid antibodies confirmed APS. She was managed with close multidisciplinary follow up. This case highlights the role of cardiac MRI in diagnosing myocarditis early, guiding management strategies, and the need for heightened clinical suspicion in APS patients presenting with cardiac symptoms.
Miho Fukui, MD, JACC: Case Reports Associate Editor, is joined by author Ree Lu, MD, discussing this study from Cho et al presented at ACC.25 and published in JACC: Case Reports. Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) is a rare benign uterine growth that extends into the venous system. This case describes a 48-year-old female who presented with 1 month of chest pain and dyspnea on exertion. She was found to have a right atrial mass that transiently crossed into the right ventricle with associated moderate tricuspid regurgitation. Computed tomography revealed a uterine mass with contiguous intravascular extension through the inferior vena cava terminating in the right atrium. This case of symptomatic tricuspid valve obstruction due to IVL illustrates the importance of maintaining preload. Chest and abdominal imaging may be necessary to identify the source of the mass and ensure appropriate surgical planning.
Maurice Enriquez-Sarano, MD, FACC JACC: Case Reports Associate Editor, is joined by author Emmanuel Daniel, MD, discussing this study from Daniel et al presented at ACC.25 and published in JACC: Case Reports. Large lead-associated vegetations carry a significant risk of pulmonary embolism with hemodynamic instability when transvenous lead extraction is attempted. In this case, a 54-year-old male came to the hospital with fever and dyspnea. He was found to have MSSA bacteremia and a large RV lead vegetation on echo. He had multiple co-morbidities and was a high-risk surgical candidate. He underwent successful vegetation aspiration using the Flowtriever system, followed by endovascular lead extraction.

Sandra M. Oliver-McNeil, DNP, ACNP-BC, FACC, JACC: Case Reports Deputy Editor, is joined by author Liam S. Flanagan, MD discussing this study from Flanagan et al presented at ACC.25 and published in JACC: Case Reports. Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has a diverse range of etiologies and carries significant morbidity and mortality. Here, a 45-year-old female presented with shortness of breath and was found to be in acute right heart failure due to PAH. Exam demonstrated features of scurvy. She initially required vasopressors, supplemental oxygen therapy, and PAH therapies but rapidly improved with vitamin C supplementation.
Julien Dreyfus, MD, PhD, JACC: Case Reports Associate Editor, is joined by author Khalid Shakfeh, MD, discussing this study from Shakfeh et al presented at ACC.25 and published in JACC: Case Reports. A 56 year old man with chronic chest pain syndrome presented with sudden onset of weakness. Evaluation for a stroke revealed a large mass in the right atrium measuring approximately 2.2 x 2.0 cm immediately above the tricuspid valve annulus and adjacent to the atrio-ventricular groove on TTE. Cardiac MRI ruled out intracardiac mass, but rather demonstrated an RCA fusiform aneurysm. Coronary CTA characterized this as two fusiform RCA aneurysms. A LHC confirmed this. Giant coronary aneurysms appearing as a large space-occupying intracavitary cardiac mass are rarely diagnosed. Escalating multimodal imaging is essential for accurate diagnosis and surgical planning. Kawasaki disease can have a late presentation and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of coronary aneurysms. A multimodal imaging approach is essential for accurate diagnosis and management of giant coronary aneurysms.
Andrea Scotti, MD, JACC: Case Reports Deputy Editor, is joined by authors Richard Carrick, MD, PhD and Drew Bidmead, BS discussing this study from Carrick et al presented at ACC.25 and published in JACC: Case Reports. Left atrial dissection is a rare, but potentially serious, complication that most commonly arises following mitral valve surgeries. In this report, we describe an unusual case of left atrial dissection that occurred after multi-valve surgical replacement in a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. While permanent pacemaker placement was required due to recurrent episodes of complete heart block, the patient was otherwise managed safely using a conservative approach without surgical re-intervention.
Mary Norine Walsh, MD, MACC, JACC: Case Reports Deputy Editor, is joined by author Dena Hayes, MD, discussing this study from Hayes et al presented at ACC.25 and published in JACC: Case Reports. The diagnosis of cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) is often challenging, particularly in atypical cases. The authors describe a case of a previously healthy 33-year-old woman who was found to have a biatrial mass and evidence of a diffuse inflammatory or neoplastic process on multimodality imaging. Percutaneous biopsy of the cardiac mass was performed and histopathology revealed granulomas consistent with CS. This case adds to the growing number of reports of CS presenting as an intracardiac mass.
