Improved Left Ventricular Structure and Function After Successful Kidney Transplantation.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Cardiac changes observed in chronic kidney disease patients are of multifactorial origin including chronic uremia, hemodynamics or inflammation. Restoration of renal function by kidney transplantation (KTX) may reverse cardiac changes. Novel echocardiographic methods such as speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) allow early and sensitive detection of subtle changes of cardiac ...
متن کاملEchocardiographic Evaluation of left Ventricular Function and Geometry in Pediatric Patients with Kidney Transplantation
Extended abstract Echocardiographic Evaluation of Left Ventricular Function and Geometry in Pediatric Patients with Kidney Transplantation Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is an important, leading cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) as well as in renal transplant recipients. Cardiovascular complications become more important in children because of the i...
متن کاملREGRESSION OF LEFT VENTRICULAR HYPERTROPHY AFTER SUCCESSFUL RENAL TRANSPLANTATION AMONG UREMIC PATIENTS
Recognition of the natural history and responsible leading factors for regression of left ventricular hypertrophy after successful renal transplantation are very important. The aim of this study was to assess the regression of left ventricular hypertrophy after successful renal transplantation among uremic patients. In this study 27 uremic patients (18 males and 9 females) with an average a...
متن کاملLeft ventricular function before and after kidney transplantation.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate left ventricular function by echocardiography before and after kidney transplantation (KT). METHODS This analytical study included 50 patients that had successful KT in Shahid Beheshti Hospital, Babol, Iran from October 2005 to December 2007. The echocardiography study was performed by one cardiologist before and at least 3 months after KT. Data were analyzed by SPSS, an...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Torsion Changes Post Kidney Transplantation
BACKGROUND To quantify changes of left ventricular (LV) torsion in patients' pre and post kidney transplantation. METHODS A prospective study was conducted on 48 patients who received kidney transplantation for end stage renal disease and without myocardial infarction. The rotation, twist and torsion of LV were studied pre and post kidney transplantation (6 months post transplantation) using ...
