Predominant, severe right ventricular outflow tract obstruction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Recently, new cardiac imaging techniques as cardiac magnetic resonance have shown to play a primary role for a recognition of unusual mechanisms of right and left ventricular obstruction. However, echocardiography remains the most widely used technique and the first step to recognize myocardial hypertrophy, blood flow velocity, and pressure gradients in real time (2). We describe a rare case of...
متن کاملRight ventricular pacing for right ventricular outflow tract obstruction in a man with biventricular hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
A 40-year-old man with known hypertrophic cardiomyopathy presented with syncope after coughing. Physical examination revealed a systolic murmur that was accentuated by the Valsalva maneuver. An electrocardiogram suggested biventricular hypertrophy and biatrial enlargement (Fig. 1). Echocardiograms revealed asymmetric septal hypertrophy with a diastolic septal thickness of 2.3 cm, and evidence o...
متن کاملAn unusual case of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy causing right ventricular outflow tract obstruction
Methods Steady-state free precession (SSFP) imaging was performed to assess ventricular function, along with tagging. Black blood T1 and T2 weighted fast spin echo sequences were acquired for tissue characterisation and phase contrast imaging was used to quantify blood flow. First pass perfusion imaging was performed during the administration of gadolinium and finally Late Gadolinium Enhancemen...
متن کاملAcquired right ventricular outflow tract obstruction.
I t is not unusual for complicated aneurysms of the ascending aorta to affect left ventricular function. Processes causing or associated with an aneurysm may narrow the coronary artery ostia and produce myocardial ischemia or infarction; the aneurysm may distort the aortic valve ring and produce aortic insufficiency with subsequent left ventricular hypertrophy, dilatation, and failure. However,...
متن کاملRight ventricular myxoma causing right ventricular outflow tract obstruction.
Cardiac myxomas are the most common neoplasms of the heart. They can be located in any chamber of the heart but frequently in the left atrium. In this report we present a patient who had been treated for a right ventricular myxoma originating from the interventricular septum and leading to right ventricular outflow tract obstruction.
