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: Ectopia cordis : a report of two cases in Cameroon Authors: Chelo, David; Mbassi Awa, Hubert Desire; Nguefack Dongmo, Felicitee; Menanga, Alain P.; Ngo Um, Suzanne; Nde Kamgne, M.; Koki Ndombo, Paul O. Abstract: This article reports two cases of ectopia cordis in two children aged one day and twenty months respectively. A one day old newborn had complete thoracic ectopia cordis associated with an internal cardiac defect and severe thoracic and abdominal wall malformations. The centre does not have the facilities to manage complex congenital defects and prior to being transferred to a cardiac centre, the neonate died on the second day of admission. A 20-month old baby had partial ectopia of the heart and a defect in the abdominal wall. He had no major congenital cardiac defect and has remained clinically stable with no life threatening symptoms
