    (2018) Yilmaz, Mustafa; Gullu, Hakan; Demircan, Senol; Sezgin, Alpay Turan; Bilgel, Ziya Gokalp; Muderrisoglu, Haldun; 0000-0002-2557-9579; 0000-0002-9635-6313; S-6973-2016; AAG-8233-2020
    Introduction: One of the most important reasons for a high mortality and morbidity rate in geriatric patients with calcific aortic stenosis is arrhythmias. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation is an alternative to conventional aortic valve surgery for high-risk patients because of its less-invasive nature. Although hemodynamic and functional recoveries are established after transcatheter aortic valve implantation, whether it leads to a decrease in the risk of atrial fibrillation, ventricular arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death remains unclear. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the risks associated with aortic stenosis by assessing the rates of P wave dispersion for estimating the atrial fibrillation risk and QT interval dispersion, Tp-e interval, and Tp-e/QT ratio for ventricular arrhythmia and assessing sudden cardiac death risk before and after implantation. Materials and Method: In a retrospective study, a total of 39 subjects [14 males (35.89%) and 25 females (64.11%); mean age=81.51 +/- 8.79 years] were enrolled. P wave/QT interval dispersion, Tp-e interval and Tp-e/QT ratio values before and 3rd months after implantation were calculated and compared. Results: There was a statistically significant decline in P wave/QT interval dispersion, Tp-e interval, Tp-e/QT ratio values between preoperative, and 3rd, months (43.72 +/- 7.78 vs. 35.15 +/- 8.92, 61.64 +/- 17.36 vs. 49.41 +/- 12.64, 84.59 +/- 7.64 vs. 73.21 +/- 6.46, 0.21 +/- 0.01 vs. 0.18 +/- 0.01, respectively, p<0.001 for all comparisons). Conclusion: P wave/QT interval dispersion, Tp-e interval and Tp-e/QT ratio were shown to be attenuated after transcatheter aortic valve implantation. These results indirectly offer that there may be a reduction in risk of atrial fibrillation, ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death.

    Cases of Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Adults (MIS-A) Associated with SARS-CoV-2 Infection
    (2022) Demiroglu, Yusuf Ziya; Oruc, Ebru; Odemis, Ilker; Bilgel, Ziya Gokalp; 0000-0003-2638-0163; AAD-1638-2019
    Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in adults (MIS-A) is a rare condition that develops after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We present two young adult male patients, aged 25 and 24 years, who admitted to our outpatient clinic with high fever, redness in the eyes, diarrhea, and maculopapular rash four weeks after after clinically mild COVID-19 infection. Echocardiography showed global hypokinesia in both cases. Therefore, the history of COVID-19 should be questioned, and the patient should be evaluated for possible MIS-A, especially when new heart failure is detected during the pandemic.
