Left ventricular hypertrophy and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
eft ventricular myocardial hypertrophy (LVH) occurs in any conditions, usually, it is thought, as a secondary or compensatory” response to abnormal pressure or volume oading and to stimuli, as yet incompletely understood, esulting from deficiencies in cardiac performance (1). hese responses may be modulated by genetic predisposiions, a relationship also not well understood. “Compensaory” hypert...
متن کاملVentricular arrhythmias and left ventricular hypertrophy in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND In hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), the degree of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) could influence the development of ventricular arrhythmias. OBJECTIVE In HCM, analyze the association between the occurrence of ventricular arrhythmias determined by Holter electrocardiogram (ECG-Holter) and the degree of LVH determined by maximum wall thickness (MWT) in echocardiography and body...
متن کاملProgressive left ventricular remodeling in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and severe left ventricular hypertrophy.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the natural history of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and severe left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) (i.e., maximal left ventricular wall thickness [MLVWT] >/=30 mm) and whether changes in cardiac morphology influence the course of the disease. BACKGROUND Severe LVH is common in young and rare among elderly patients with HCM. T...
متن کاملAssociation between high grade ventricular arrhythmia and extent of left ventricular hypertrophy in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
The association between the extent of left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy and severity of ventricular or atrial arrhythmias are examined. Two-dimensional echocardiography and 24-h Holter electrocardiography monitoring were performed in 60 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). According to the distribution of the LV hypertrophy, the patients were divided into three groups: 1. Apical hyp...
متن کاملLeft ventricular diastolic gradient in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy☆
Systolic left ventricular (LV) gradients and diastolic dysfunction are widely studied in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) [1,2], however diastolic gradients have never been described. A patient with HCM, mid-cavity obliteration and apical aneurysm, diagnosed by both 2D echocardiography (Fig. 1, panel A) and cardiac magnetic resonance (Fig. 1, panel B), showed color Doppler aliasing effect at m...
