Atrialised right ventricular myxoma in a patient with Ebstein’s anomaly
Ebstein's anomaly is a rare entity affecting around 1 in 200,000 live births and accounts for less than 1% of congenital heart diseases. Ebstein's anomaly with an associated right-sided myxoma is extremely rare, with only one other case report found in the literature. Previous reports have also noted cases of Ebstein's anomaly associated with left-sided myxomas. We describe a female patient wit...
متن کاملLEFT VENTRICULAR DIASTOLIC ABNORMALITIES IN β-THALASSEMIA MAJOR WITH NORMAL SYSTOLIC FUNCTION
In order to identify left ventricular diastolic function in patients with betathalassemia major and normal systolic function by noninvasive M-mode and Doppler echocardiography, an analytic study was designed in a university hospital in Sari. We have studied 44 patients (23 men and 21 women), mean age 15.48±2.16 (range 12 to 20) and 43 age and sex matched control subjects. Peak flow velocit...
متن کاملRight Ventricle and Exercise Capacity
Almost 3 quarters of a century ago, an experimental dog model, involving the electrocautery ablation of the free wall of the right ventricle (RV), served as the basis for the contention that the RV serves functionally as a passive conduit. Clearly, our understanding of the RV has evolved over subsequent decades, and the prognostic significance of RV dysfunction is now recognized in a wide array...
متن کاملChanges in mitral regurgitation and left ventricular geometry during exercise affect exercise capacity in patients with systolic heart failure.
AIMS exercise may dramatically change the extent of functional mitral regurgitation (MR) and left ventricular (LV) geometry in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). We hypothesized that dynamic changes in MR and LV geometry would affect exercise capacity. METHODS AND RESULTS this study included 30 CHF patients with functional MR who underwent symptom-limited bicycle exercise stress echoc...
متن کاملchanges in exercise capacity and modifiable risk factors after a comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation in patients with and without left ventricular systolic dysfunction
background: although the positive effects of cardiac rehabilitation (cr) for patients with heart failure have been known, only a small proportion of such patients have been referred for comprehensive cr. the aim of this study is to compare the extent to which a cr program improved the exercise capacity and modifiable risk factors of patients with and without impaired systolic function. methods:...
