Abstract
Parkes-Weber Syndrome is a rare congenital vascular abnormality characterized by aneurismatic illness of blood arteries in the afflicted limb, as well as hypertrophy, ulceration, ischemia, and high-output heart failure. Imaging investigations are required to provide a diagnosis, with contrast arteriography being the gold standard. The majority of treatment options are endovascular, with surgical excision for arteriovenous malformations and limb amputation as alternatives. We describe a 73-year-old male patient with mainly asymptomatic PWS, coronary disease, and borderline EF (45%) who had CABG surgery. In individuals with established CAD and other cardiac disorders, it is critical to identify additional diseases or syndromes that might have a compounding effect on the heart, such as PWS and high-output heart failure.
期刊介绍：
Frontiers? Which frontiers? Where exactly are the frontiers of cardiovascular medicine? And who should be defining these frontiers?
At Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine we believe it is worth being curious to foresee and explore beyond the current frontiers. In other words, we would like, through the articles published by our community journal Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, to anticipate the future of cardiovascular medicine, and thus better prevent cardiovascular disorders and improve therapeutic options and outcomes of our patients.
