Noncompaction of the left ventricular myocardium diagnosed during ventriculography.
Corresponding Author: Mehmet Ali Elbey, MD; e-mail: [email protected] 565 Dear Editor, The noncompacted myocardium (NCM) is characterised prominent trabeculations and deep intertrabecular recesses due to interruption of the myocardial fiber compacting during embryogenesis. Major clinical features of NCM include heart failure, arrhytmias and thromboembolic events. A 40-year-old man with shor...

rom the St. Georges ospital, Cardiology, ondon, England. anuscript received ebruary 25, 2010; ccepted March 2, 2010. A68-year-old woman with troublesome palpitations and intolerant of several antiarrhythmics was referred for ablation of frequent ( 25,000 in 24 h) symptomatic premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) with an inferior axis, positive QRS polarity in leads II, III, and aVF, and a domi...
متن کاملQuantitative assessment of global and regional left ventricular function with low-contrast dose digital subtraction ventriculography.
Few studies have compared the use of low-contrast dose digital subtraction ventriculography with conventional ventriculography for quantitative assessment of both global and regional left ventricular function. Accordingly, 34 patients underwent conventional ventriculography using 36 ml of ionic contrast material and digital ventriculography (mask-mode) using 10 ml of contrast diluted in 10 ml o...
متن کاملVentricular ectopy.
Sir, The proceedings of the British Cardiac Society (Br HeartJ_ 1979; 41: 360-384) include one abstract in which 'ventricular ectopy' is the subject. It was particularly disappointing to see this in the British Heart Journal as I felt quite certain that 'ectopy' was an unfortunate neologism both coined in and confined to the United States of America. Our dictionaries, both medical and general, ...
متن کاملAssessment of ventricular elements of mitral valve by left ventriculography.
In the left ventriculogram in the right anterior oblique projection the plane of the mitral valve is seen in profile and the papillary muscle shadows are outlined. The distance from the middle of the papillary muscles to the plane of the mitral valve during systole was used to assess the average length of the chordae tendineae, and the area of the papillary muscle shadows was measured as an ind...
