Paulin's colleague, Julian Max Aroesty, commented during an acquisitions interview (2015 May 21) that this refers to "stealing" flow from one area to another, because of a previous procedure that was done incorrectly. ]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "49M. Acute MI. Ectatic Coronaries. Up to 10 mm. in prox RCA possibility of Kawasaki."]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "48F. AS, RF: Chol, Smoking, Family, Eco diagnosis. Subvalvular aortic stenosis, ridge type. MR: 3out 4. Also valvular narrowing."]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "49M. Abnormal LCA, single cor. art. LCA arising from ant right cusp, going through septum to deliver. LAD and LCX not in jeopardy. Case of pheochromcytoma and ? LV filling defects."

Paulin's colleague, Julian Max Aroesty, commented during an acquisitions interview (2015 May 21) that this film shows an unusual case, with the LCA arising from the wrong place.]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "79F. Arteriolo-Cavitary Comm. Mild to moderate, distal LAD diag, also distal RCA may explain symptoms! DOE on exercise, SV tachycardia."

Paulin's colleague, Julian Max Aroesty, commented during an acquisitions interview (2015 May 21) that "Arterio-Cavitary Comm." refers to a connectron from the artery to the heart wall.]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "66M. Single Coronary Artery. From Right cor cusp LCX behind ao root, also supplying LAD. Exertional chest burning, stress pos for pain & Thall. No sign obstr."

Paulin's colleague, Julian Max Aroesty, commented during an acquisitions interview (2015 May 21) that normally there are two coronary arteries (LAD and LCX).]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "73M. LAD branch to PA, cirsoid, racemose aneurysm. Repeat angio and PTCA."]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "47F. Chest pain, extreme emotional stress! EKG & Enzyme positive. LV ant apical hypo-akinesis, EF 40%. Ant Wall Infarct without Stenosis."

Paulin's colleague, Julian Max Aroesty, commented during an acquisitions interview (2015 May 21) that "EF 40%" shows Taketsubo[sic] syndrome.]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "60M. Exercise pain, chest & epigastric, EKG positive, smoker. Left Main Stenosis. Post surgery OK."

Paulin's colleague, Julian Max Aroesty, commented during an acquisitions interview (2015 May 21) that this film shows a clinically interesting case; an example of a modest amount of coronary disease in such a critical location that it is a highly dangerous lethal lesion; "trouble in the trunk of the tree rather than in any of the branches." ]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "67M. Abnormal LCX from right cusp. LAD PTCA in past. Now new ischemia acute with PTCA on right side."

Paulin's colleague, Julian Max Aroesty, commented during an acquisitions interview (2015 May 21) that "LAD" refers to angioplasty. ]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "71F. Twin trunk LAD. Medial portion flush occluded, no coll from right, ? embolic?"]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "71F. LA Myxoma. CA supplies vascularity."

Paulin's colleague, Julian Max Aroesty, commented during an acquisitions interview (2015 May 21) that "LA Myxoma" is a benign tumor - diagnostic procedure. ]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "Tetralogy + left subcl Blalock-Taussig anastomosis. Also plain films available. LV injections RAO & LAO show shunt in membranonous[sic] portion of septum. RV injection - subvalvular stenosis. Aortogram-Blalock-T anastomisis[sic] left subclavian. Coronaries normal, no abnormality of RCA."

Paulin's colleague, Julian Max Aroesty, commented during an acquisitions interview (2015 May 21) that "tetralogy" is a congenital lesion; "Blalock-Taussig" is named in part for Helen Taussig; and "Aortogram-Blalock-T" is an early form of palliation, at a time when complete repair could not be done.]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "83M. Acquired VSD. 3VD, CABG, discharged."

Paulin's colleague, Julian Max Aroesty, commented during an acquisitions interview (2015 May 21) that the Acquired VSD is small, and that this is unusual---a heart attack destroyed the septum between the right and left side (ventricle). As it healed, it left a hole.]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "46M. ECTATIC CORONARIES. History of Kawasaki, atyp chest pain. Smoking, Lipids+, family history EKG=WNL; MRI= no aneurysm in larger vessels, CA not included.]]>
Paulin's colleague, Julian Max Aroesty, commented during an acquisitions interview (2015 May 21) that this film shows an abnormal condition for an adult -- usually caught and treated in childhood.]]>
The recording was described in Paulin's teaching film inventory with the following annotation: "ASD repair with clam shell. Patent foramen ovale with R-L shunt, s/p MI and right ventricular involvement."]]> ]]>
