Revascularization in severe left ventricular dysfunction.
The highest-risk patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction are those with ischemic cardiomyopathy and severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction (ejection fraction≤35%). The cornerstone of treatment is guideline-driven medical therapy for all patients and implantable device therapy for appropriately selected patients. Surgical revascularization offers the potential for improv...
متن کاملComplete revascularization in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction.
OBJECTIVE This study evaluates whether patients with coronary artery disease and severely depressed left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) benefit from complete revascularization by multivessel coronary artery bypass. METHODS From April 1994 to May 2002, 42 patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) at our institution had impaired left ventricular (LV) function [an eject...
متن کاملResults of revascularization in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction.
OBJECTIVE In patients with coronary disease and poor left ventricular function, bypass grafting remains a surgical challenge. This study evaluates experience in 125 consecutive patients with ejection fraction less than 20% (study group). METHODS Preoperative viability studies were not used for patient selection. Clinical data were prospectively collected. The average age of the study subjects...

متن کاملHigh myocardial 18F-FDG uptake after chemotherapy in the presence of left ventricular dysfunction as well as 3-month later with no left ventricular dysfunction
Diffusely increased glucose metabolic activity in the right and left ventricles using 2-deoxy-2-(F-18) fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDGPET/CT) and global left ventricular hypokinesia at echocardiography can be evident in acute myocarditis. But, there has been no case report that the ventricular 18F-FDGuptake remains unchanged even ...
