Conclusions: Echocardiography was very useful to diagnose DCRV in adults as well as to identify its anatomic type. Comparing two different approaches, TOE better defines the entire scope of pathology, ...

Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are increasingly common across the heart failure ... In such patients, a left atrial (LA) configuration of the inflow cannula may be attempted if LA cavity is ...

Immediately after contrast administration, the homogeneous, strong enhancement of the LV cavity allows easy detection of abnormal intraventricular ... 1 It was concluded that fibrinolytic agents are ...

Myxomas can be so large that they fill the atria and project through the valve into the ventricular cavity, producing a distinctive groove at the distal end. The tumors can calcify, which can be ...

Therapies targeting this dysregulation have been actually developed. Figure 3. Twelve-lead ECG tracing during stress test shows the typical aspect of bidirectional ventricular tachycardia ...

In this scenario, right ventricle volume is force filled, leading to elevated internal pressure, enlargement of the right ventricle cavity dimensions, and the development of mild diastolic dysfunction ...

Larger changes were inversely associated with age (r = -0.19, P < 0.001) and smaller left ventricular cavity volume on the stress image (r = -0.11, P = 0.026). Individuals undergoing pharmacologic ...

Evidence for a final common pathway for disorders of the myocardium (pages 246 and 320–330). These studies further our understanding of the heart in health and disease, particularly in the ...

The patient had a relapse accompanied by bilateral pulmonary embolism and a right ventricular thrombus, and ultimately underwent thrombectomy. In the subsequent year, despite receiving adequate ...

Left ventricular (LV) geometric patterns are associated with cognitive impairment and cerebral small vessel disease. As a novel magnetic resonance imaging marker of cerebral small vessel disease and a ...

The two ventricles (right and left) are muscular chambers capable of propelling the blood out of the heart. The right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs, and the left ventricle pumps blood to all ...
