Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia.
The clinical course in 15 patients with features consistent with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia is described. At referral seven patients had abnormal physical findings, nine had abnormal electrocardiograms with non-specific right-sided abnormalities, and seven patients had increased heart size or prominent right ventricles on chest x ray. During long term follow up (mean 8 8 years, ...
متن کاملArrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia.
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD) is a disorder in which normal myocardium is replaced by fibrofatty tissue. This disorder usually involves the right ventricle, but the left ventricle and septum also may be affected. Although the exact prevalence of ARVD is unknown, it is thought to occur in six per 10,000 persons in certain populations. After hypertrophic heart disease, it is t...
متن کاملVentricular Arrhythmias in Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia
Ventricular arrhythmias due to ARVD and right ventricular outflow tract arrhythmia (RVOTA) share the same left bundle branch block pattern with inferior axis on the ECG. The former has a more malignant course while the latter has a better prognosis and is more amenable to radiofrequency catheter ablation. Hence differentiating them is of utmost clinical importance in the management of these pat...
متن کاملArrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy.
The heart is a 4-chambered pump that propels blood simultaneously to the lungs and the rest of the body by means of coordinated muscular contraction. Various diseases can affect the heart muscle and cause it to become weak, thus decreasing its ability to pump blood adequately. Disease that weakens the heart muscle is called cardiomyopathy. Some causes of cardiomyopathy are viral infections of t...
متن کاملArrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia (ARVC/D) is a heart muscle disease clinically characterized by life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. Its prevalence has been estimated to vary from 1:2,500 to 1:5,000. ARVC/D is a major cause of sudden death in the young and athletes. The pathology consists of a genetically determined dystrophy of the right ventricular myocardium wit...
