Title: The value of multimodality imaging for detection, characterisation and management of a wall adhering structure in the right atrium Authors: Baumann, Stefan; Frambach, Daniel; Huseynov, Aydin; Becher, Tobias; Boecker, C.; Behnes, Michael; Rapp, S.; Papavassiliu, Theano; Borggrefe, Martin; Akin, Ibrahim Abstract: The case presents a wall adherent structure in the right atrium in a young patient with peripheral tcell lymphoma followed by successful prolonged lysis therapy resulting in the resolution of the thrombus is presented. This case highlights the utility of multimodality imaging in an accurate assessment of the right atrium thrombus and the effectiveness of prolonged lysis therapy.

Title: Severe reversible dilated cardiomyopathy associated with a large left ventricular thrombus in a young child with middle aortic syndrome Authors: Ponniah, Umakumaran; Overholt, Ed Abstract: this article reports a case of a seven-year girl who presented with severe dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) associated with a large thrombus in the left ventricle (LV). She had a long segment stenosis of the lower thoracic descending aorta, possibly due to non-specific aortitis and underwent successful stent angioplasty. The LV thrombus resolved after heparin without sequelae.

Title: The chest x-ray in congenital heart disease 6 Authors: Somerville, Jane; Grech, Victor E. Abstract: This patient (born in 1983) had presented in childhood with coarctation. He had had subclavian flap repair at 1½ years of age. He was reviewed at the Grown Up Congenital Heart Disease Clinic last year and had normal right arm pulse and blood pressure and normal femoral pulses. The left arm pulses were very difficult to palpate.

Title: The chest x-ray in delayed presentation of coarctation of the aorta Authors: Merrick, Blair; Gatrad, A.R. Abstract: This article shows the chest radiograph of a thirteen-year-old male. The study demonstrates bilateral notching of the inferior borders of the 3rd-8th posterior ribs, a finding associated with coarctation of the aorta. Blood bypasses the aortic narrowing through intercostal collaterals, which enlarge to accommodate the increased flow rates. The pulsations of these vessels cause disruption to bone remodelling leading to the characteristic notching.
