Integrated evaluation of hypertensive patients with cardiovascular magnetic resonance.

Related Articles Integrated evaluation of hypertensive patients with cardiovascular magnetic resonance.
Int J Cardiol. 2008 Apr 25;125(3):383-90
Authors: Maceira AM, Prasad SK, Pennell DJ, Mohiaddin RH
BACKGROUND: Hypertension causes cardiac morbidity and premature mortality. Accurate evaluation to exclude potentially curable causes is important. Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance and Magnetic Resonance Angiography (CMR/CE-MRA) provide an integrated approach to the assessment of hypertensive patients - a single study can identify certain secondary causes and assess left ventricular (LV) mass and function. The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate the feasibility of CMR/CE-MRA to define LV dimensions and exclude some secondary causes in a selected group of hypertensives. METHODS AND RESULTS: Fifty-three hypertensives (46+/-17 years, 18 females) were prospectively studied (early onset hypertension, n=17; drug resistant hypertension, n=23; hypertension with increased creatinine at baseline/after ACEi, n=12; hypertension with peripheral vessel disease, n=1). Study protocol included assessment of LV and aorta, imaging of adrenals and 3D CE-MRA of aorta and renal arteries. Significant abnormalities were found in 13 patients (25%) - renal artery stenosis (n=8), aortic coarctation (n=4), adrenal mass (n=1). Mean LV mass index was increased compared with matched controls. LV systolic dysfunction was found in 9 patients. CONCLUSIONS: CMR/CE-MRA provides comprehensive evaluation of hypertensive patients and could allow for a unique integrated approach with assessment of LV dimensions as well as detection of some secondary causes.

A case of Cushing's syndrome presenting as endometrial hyperplasia.

Korean J Intern Med. 2008 Mar;23(1):49-52
Authors: Lee SM, Hahm JR, Jung TS, Jung JH, Kang MY, Kim SJ, Chung SI
We describe here the case of a 39-year-old woman with a cortisol-producing adrenal adenoma and she presented with endometrial hyperplasia and hypertension without the specific characteristics of Cushing's syndrome. The patient had consulted a gynecologist for menometrorrhagia 2 years prior to her referral and she was diagnosed with endometrial hyperplasia and hypertension. Her blood pressure and the endometrial lesion were refractory despite taking multiple antihypertensives and repetitive dilation and curettage and progestin treatment. On admission, the clinical examination revealed mild central obesity (a body mass index of 22.9 kg/m2, a waist circumference of 85 cm and a hip circumference of 94cm), but there was no hirsutism and myopathy. She showed impaired glucose tolerance on an oral glucose tolerance test. The biochemical hypercortisolemia together with the prolactin and androgen levels were evaluated to explore the cause of her anovulation. Adrenal Cushing's syndrome was confirmed on the basis of the elevated urinary free cortisol (454 microg/24h, normal range: 20-70) with a suppressed ACTH level (2.0 pg/mL, normal range: 6.0-76.0) and the loss of circadian cortisol secretion. A CT scan revealed a 3.1 cm, hyperechoic, well-marginated mass in the left adrenal gland. Ten months post-adrenalectomy, the patient had unintentionally lost 9 kg of body weight, had regained a regular menstrual cycle and had normal thickness of her endometrium.
