Right ventricular aneurysm with ventricular premature beats.
The majority of left ventricular aneurysms occur as a consequence of ischaemic heart disease and healed myocardial infarction. Arrhythmias happen sometimes as complications of left ventricular aneurysm, and aneurysmectomy for the control of these arrhythmias was recently reported (Hunt, Sloman, and Westlake, I969). In contrast, aneurysm of the right ventricle is rare (Weglicki, Ruskin, and McIn...

متن کاملarrhythmia in acute right ventricular infarction
acute inferior myocardial infarction (mi) frequently involves the right ventricle (rv).1-3 we assessed the prognostic impact of rv myocardial involvement in patients with inferior mi. one hundred seventy patients were admitted to the cardiac care unit of madani heart hospital (tabriz-iran) with the diagnosis of inferior mi with (group1) or without (group2) the simultaneous involvement of rv dur...
متن کاملRight ventricular dysfunction persists following brief right ventricular pressure overload.
OBJECTIVE Acute pulmonary hypertension may cause right ventricular (RV) contractile failure. While it has been assumed that restoration of normal loading conditions after acute pulmonary hypertension is sufficient for complete recovery of RV function, this has not been rigorously examined. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that acute RV pressure overload produces RV contracti...
متن کاملRight ventricular infarction mimicking extensive anterior infarction.
Two patients with inferior infarction complicated by right ventricular infarction are presented. Both manifested electrocardiographic changes involving the anterior chest leads with initial S-T segment elevation followed by loss of R waves and the development of QS complexes mimicking anterior infarction. Cardiac catheterization showed right coronary artery occlusion with normal left coronary s...
