Long-term survivor diagnosed with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia.
The subject was a 70 year-old man who survived for 31 years after being diagnosed with right ventricular cardiomyopathy, having undergone right ventricular (RV) aneurysmectomy at the age of 39. His arrhythmia and syncopal attacks were effectively abolished after the original aneurysmectomy. Although he frequently suffered from right heart failure, hemodialysis improved his status. However, the ...
متن کاملLong-Term Outcome With Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia in Patients With Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND Catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy improves short-term VT-free survival. We sought to determine the long-term outcomes of VT control and need for antiarrhythmic drug therapy after endocardial (ENDO) and adjuvant epicardial (EPI) substrate modification in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy. ...
متن کاملA long term follow up of 15 patients with 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 کاملClinical profile and long-term follow-up of 37 families with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy.
OBJECTIVES We sought to define the clinical picture and natural history of familial arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC). BACKGROUND Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy is a myocardial disease, often familial, clinically characterized by the impending risk of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death. METHODS Thirty-seven ARVC families of northeast Italy were st...
