RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to test a sonographic technique used to view the anterior bundle of the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL), describe its sonographic characteristics in healthy volunteers, and verify these characteristics by determining interobserver variability and their correlations in cadavers. METHODS: Sonographic studies of the anterior bundle of the UCL were performed on 48 elbows of asymptomatic healthy volunteers. The participants were examined by 3 experts, who identified the insertion sites of the anterior bundle and subjectively evaluated its echogenicity and echo texture. A sonographic examination of the anterior bundle of the UCL in a cadaveric elbow was performed, and the same aspects were evaluated. RESULTS: In all cases, the anterior bundle of the UCL appeared as a triangular structure in the coronal plane and had a hyperechoic homogeneous echo texture in most of these cases. The cadaveric elbow had the same sonographic characteristics as the volunteers. CONCLUSIONS: As shown by examining the interobserver variability and determining the correlation with cadaveric tissue, sonography proved to be a reliable tool for evaluating the normal aspects of the anterior bundle of the UCL.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To study the angiographic anatomy of human coronary veins and the possibility of epicardial venous mapping through microelectrode catheters. METHODS: We evaluated 30 patients with sustained ventricular tachycardia using a catheter which provided occlusion of the coronary sinus ostium during venous angiography. They were 25 males, 5 females, ages ranging from 24 to 76 years (mean = 52.7). The veins were studied according to their number, caliber and distribution in the anterior and posterior wall of the left ventricle. RESULTS: Coronary sinus was catheterized in all patients. No discomfort or complication were observed. The number of veins from posterior wall of the left ventricle was 3.1 and anterior wall, 1.9, p < 0.05. The caliber of the coronary veins were: anterior interventricular vein (distal segment = 1.19 +/- 0.22 mm, middle segment = 1.65 +/- 0.35 mm), posterior interventricular vein (distal segment = 1.83 +/- 0.47 mm, middle segment = 2.00 +/- 0.52 mm), left posterior vein (distal segment = 1.45 +/- 0.25 mm, middle segment = 2.49 +/- 0.92 mm); p < 0.05. CONCLUSION: The balloon occlusion technique for coronary venous angiography is feasible and safe. The number and the caliber (distal and middle) of the veins from the posterior wall of the left ventricle were significantly greater than those from the anterior wall. Anatomic conditions for venous epicardial mapping are more adequate in the posterior wall of the left ventricle.
