A 64-year-old man had calcific mitral and aortic valve disease with stenosis and insufficiency of both valves. Because of the severity of the aortic and mitral regurgitation, he underwent aortic and mitral replacements. Postoperatively, he developed cardiac arrhythmias and signs of acute renal failure, but this cleared and he was improving. On the 20th post-op day, however, he developed acute pulmonary edema, and was transferred to the coronary care unit. He was treated vigorously for pulmonary edema and this cleared...

A 74-year-old woman presents to the emergency department late one evening complaining of increasing shortness of breath, dizziness, and the sensation of her "heart racing." Her history is notable for longstanding, but now well-controlled, systolic hypertension. A physical examination demonstrates a blood pressure of 120/70 mm Hg and an irregular pulse of approximately 120 bpm at rest. The patient weighs 130 pounds with a body mass index within normal range of 22. An echocardiogram done a year earlier to evaluate...
