Abstract
25 patients with ischemic heart disease were studied by selective coronariography and radiocoronariograpy with 3mCi of human albumin macroaggregates labeled with 99mTc, injected selectively into each coronary artery. Gammagraphic images were then obtained. 17 cases (68%), had coronary obstructions and 8 patients (32%), had a normal coronary angiogram. Of all patients studied, 23 (92%), had areas of hypoperfusion. Patients with coronary obstructions had corresponding image defects. 6 cases with normal coronary angiography had areas of hypoperfusion and finally 2 cases had normal images in both studies. All patients wit EC6 necrosis had abnormal radiocoronariography. The macrocirculation is studied by coronary angiography, while the microcirculation is visualized by radiocoronariography. Both technique are complementary. We conclude that radiocoronariography should be performed routinely after coronary angiography in the study of ischemic heart disease, with special emphasis in cases with normal angiograms.

Abstract
We treated 101 patients with advanced (stage III and IV) lymphosarcoma and reticulosarcoma at first presentation of the disease or in relapse according to a protocol combining initial chemotherapy, complementary radiotherapy on icebergs, supplementary chemotherapy, and, finally, active immunotherapy. The overall complete remission rate was about 79% for lymphosarcoma and 73% for reticulosarcoma. About 50% of the patients were still in remission in each of the two diseases at 2 years; 60% of lymphosarcoma and 44% of reticulosarcoma patients achieved 2-year survival. This study shows the prognostic value of the WHO classification for lymphosarcoma and reticulosarcoma: the prognosis of prolymphocytic (centrofollicular) lymphosarcoma is far better than that of the lymphoblastic type, which is in turn better than that of the very poor prognosis of the immunoblastic type. The prognosis of reticulosarcoma is intermediate between that of the best-prognosis and that of the poorest-prognosis type of lymphosarcoma.

Abstract
One hundred and one patients with advanced (stage III and IV) LS and RS at the first presentation of the disease or on relapse were treated with a regimen combining initial chemotherapy, complementary radiotherapy on "icebergs," supplementary chemotherapy, and finally, active immunotherapy. The overall complete remission rate was about 79% for LS and 73% for RS. About 50% of the patients were still in remission for both diseases after 2 years; 60% with LS were still alive after 2 years and 44% with Rs. This study shows the useful prognostic value of the WHO classification for LS and RS: the prognosis of prolymphocytic (centrofollicular) LS is far better than that of the lymphoblastic type, which is itself better than that of the very poor prognostic immunoblastic type. The prognosis of RS is intermediate between that of the best prognostic type and that of the poorest prognostic type of LS.

Abstract
In order to evaluate the sensibility and specificity of the maximal treadmill exercise-stress test, a correlation was made, in fifty patients, of the resus of the test and the findings at selective coronary arteriography. None of the patients had received cardioactive drugs previous to the study. Among twenty-nine patients with proven coronary disease, three had false negative exercise tests. The remaining twenty-six cases had positive tests. The sensitivity of the method (reliability in identifying the presence of disease) was 89.7%. Twelve of twenty-one subjects with normal coronary arteries had negative exercise tests. In eight patients without coronary artery lesions, the exercise test was positive (false positive tests). An additional patient had an equivocal response and is included among the false positive responses. These nine-patients form a special group since they had severe heart disease, even though it was not due to atherosclerosis of the major coronary vessels. The specificity of the test (reliability in identifying the absence of disease) was 57.1%. However, in the absence of other heart disease, none of the subjects with normal coronary arteries had a false positive response. An analysis is made of the possible causes of these false negative and false positive responses. It was also shown in this study that the patients with coronary artery disease and positive treadmill tests had a definite functional aerobic impairment as well as a significant reduction in such indices of myocardial oxygen consumption as the heart rate and the double product (pressure-pulse), when compared to the subjects with normal coronary vessels and negative tests. In the group of patients with false positive responses, these parameters were not significantly different from the normals. The exercise-stress test protocol used in this study appears to have an adequate sensibility and an acceptable specificity.

Abstract
Although the management of supraventricular tachycardias (SVT) and atrial flutter (AF1) with drugs or cardioversion is usually effective, their use in the high risk patient commonly digitalized, may be dangerous. Since the availability of an alternate therapeutic method is desirable, the usefulness of atrial pacing was evaluated in 31 episodes of tachyarrhythmia in 31 patients with varied heart conditions. The arrhythmia diagnosis and the stimulation were done through a right atrial electrode. In most cases the rate of stimulation was higher than that of the atria (up to 400 stimuli per min). Of 17 cases with SVT (four with preexcitation syndrome), pacing led to sinus rhythm (SR) in all, even though it was transient in two. SR was obtained in six of eleven cases of AF1, through a short lasting atrial fibrillation (AF) in three of them. Four patients with paroxysmal atrial tachycardia with A-V block changed to AF. SR was achieved shortly after termination of the procedure in two of the latter. It is concluded that atrial pacing is a valuable therapeutic method since it is effective, it has very low risk specially in digitalized patients, its does not require anesthesia and because it may be used repeatedly in case of recurrence. The technique of atrial pacing permits, in some cases, the identification of the mechanism responsible for the arrhythmia.

Abstract
Even though the coronary care units have reduced to a minimum the mortality due to arrhythmias, the syndromes of left ventricular failure are responsible for the greatest part of hospital deaths in patients with acute myocardial infarction. The poor results depend upon the extensive destruction of left ventricular mass. The management in these cases should be directed to improve the performance of viable muscle as well as to preserve thejeopardized ischemic myocardium that is potentially viable. These goals may be adequately pursued by continuous hemodynamic characterization of left ventricular function. The experience of the Coronary Care Unit of the Instituto Nacional de Cardiología de México in the study of 30 of these patients is presented. Hemodynamic evaluations were performed by means of a Swan-Ganz catheter and cardiac output determinations by the thermodilution technique. The studies may be performed with a minimum of risk. Central venous pressure measurements do not adequately indicate the status of the left ventricle. Its function may be evaluated by the use of end diastolic pulmonary artery pressure which reflects, quite accurately, the left ventricular filling pressure in these patients. Continuous hemodynamic monitorization facilitates the proper manipulation of the determinants of ventricular performance (preload, afterload, cardiac rate and contractility) and permits an attempt to improve the balance between available oxygen and myocardial oxygen requirements. Hemodynamic studies and ventricular function curves are presented in selected patients with acute myocardial infarction. The mortality due to left ventricular failure and cardiogenic shock in patients with acute myocardial infarction remains extremely high. However, it is only through the early recognition by continuous hemodynamic monitorization and the aggressive management of the patient with incipient left ventricular failure that the number of survivors may be increased.

Abstract
The developing of cuantitative angiographic procedures for evaluating the left ventricular efficiency have displaced most of the simple hemodynamic methods. The calculation of the left ventricular volume by usual ventriculography yields, as a rule, magnified values. The purpose of this paper is to determine the equation of the regression line means of which the real left ventricular volume can be calculated. A series of 12 normal hearts obtained from accidentaly deceased adult individuals (this necropsy material was afforded by the Forensic Medicine Department of México City). Previously measured amounts of a contrast substance were injected into the left ventricular cavity. The heart was filmed in a position equivalent to the chest RAO. The volume of the left ventricle was calculated using monoplane Sandler and Dodge cineventriculographic method. The results were submitted to statistic analysis. Confrontation of calculated and real values rendered a significative "r" (0.7374) and a non-significant "p" (0.001) the regression equation obteined was: y=36.97 + (0.39 x) in which: y=real left ventricular volume. x=calculated left ventricular volume.

Abstract
A correlative electrocardiographic and ventriculographic study was performed in a series of 100 patients with clinical and electrocardiographic diagnosis of ischemic heart disease. The analysis was focused on the possibility of predicting ventricular contraction pattern (VCP) disturbances, through electrocardiographic signs of coronary insufficiency. Two main groups were separated on the basis of the presence of necrosis. There were 66 cases with necrosis, and 34 without it. The type of VCP was calssified in accordance with the criterion of Herman et al. in: asyneresis, akinesis and dyskininesis. The degree of coronary narrowing was arbitrarily evalued as less than 50%, between 50 and 75%, and over 75% of the lumen.

Abstract
This experimental work has been carried out with the aim of studying the ultrastructural myocardial changes caused by prolonged anoxic cardiac arrest during cardiopulmonary bypass, and their prevention by means of two different techniques of coronary perfusion--systemic-pressure continuous and low-pressure intermittent perfusion. After 30 minutes of cardiac anoxia, the ultrastructural changes of the myocardial cell were reverted to normal by coronary perfusion; when anoxic cardiac arrest was prolonged up to 60 minutes there was severe myocardial damage, with marked mitochondrial changes and dehiscence of intercalated discs, which persisted in spite of restoring coronary flow. These morphological data were in accordance with the fact that no dog which underwent anoxic cardiac arrest for 60 minutes recovered. Both intermittent and continuous coronary perfusion were effective in preventing anoxic damage; cardiac muscle cells were better preserved by low-pressure intermittent perfusion than by systemic-pressure continuous perfusion, which caused intracellular and intramitochondrial oedema.

Abstract
Five cases of supravalvular aortic stenosis (SAS) diagnosed by heart catheterization were studied in the Instituto Nacional de Cardiologia of Mexico. The clinic and laboratory data of interest of the differential diagnosis with other forms of obstruction of the left ventricle as follows: 1. Three cases had mental retardation and "elfin" face (SAS with specific psychophysical syndrome), the rest had a normal psyco-physical state without family antecedents (sporadic SAS). 2. The aortic focus was the epicenter of the expulsion murmur. In the phoncarodiographic study, two patients had protosistolic click and another had, in addition, a descending protodiastolic murmur (Int. I-IV). In the radial sphigmograms, one case had an amplitude difference in favor of the right side. 3. All had serum calcium figures within normal limits. 4. A chromosomatic analysis of preperipheral blood was performed on two patients, with normal results. 5. In the electrocardiogram, one case had right ventricular enlargement secondary to pulmonary arterial hypertension, due to stenosis of the main pulmonary arteries. 6. The radiologic study did not show dilatation of the ascending aorta and aortic bud in any case. 7. The angiocardiography showed: stenosis directly above the Valsalva sinuses; absence of dilatation or hypoplasia of the aorta above the stenosis; and the coronary network, indirectly opaqued, showed no abnormalities. One case had aortic coarctation and abnormal implantation of the right sublaviar artery, and another, stenosis of the right and left branch of its origen of the truncus of the pulmonary artery. The literature up to the present is reviewed and an anatomo-functional classification is proposed with the objective of including new varieties.
