Endocardial fibroelastosis and hypoplasia of the left ventricle in neonates without significant aortic stenosis.
Endocardial fibroelastosis in neonates with hypoplasia of the left ventricle is usually associated with severe aortic stenosis or atresia. In this study three hearts were examined, in which severe hypoplasia of the left ventricular cavity with myocardial hypertrophy and endocardial fibroelastosis were associated with small but non-stenotic subaortic outflow tracts and aortic valves. These featu...

BACKGROUND Endocardial fibroelastosis (EFE), characterized by a diffuse endocardial thickening through collagen and elastin fibers, develops in the human fetal heart restricting growth of the left ventricle (LV). Recent advances in fetal imaging indicate that EFE development is directly associated with a distended, poorly contractile LV in evolving hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). In thi...

OBJECTIVE To examine the relation between a characteristic form of left ventricular dysfunction in the fetus and abnormalities of the aortic valve and endocardial fibroelastosis of the left ventricle. DESIGN A retrospective study to examine the correlation between echocardiographic findings in the fetus and postnatal or necropsy findings. SETTING Tertiary referral centre for fetal echocardi...
متن کاملEndocardial Fibroelastosis
It is rare only 1-2% of all congenital heart diseases. The number of cases has fallen dramatically in recent years, possibly secondary to better antenatal scanning. It may be familial (10%) with a predominantly X-linked pattern. [3] It affects both sexes equally, usually presenting during the first 3-6 months of life in 80% of cases. Typical age of diagnosis is 2-12 months. It rarely is reporte...

Four children were studied in whom form of primary endocardial fibroel diagnosed clinically. In one of these diagnosis was confirmed at autopsy. In the routine clinical and laboratory cardiac catheterization and selective ography were performed on the 4 pati( angiocardiograms were taken at 6 or 1 second after automatic injection at 5 K per cent sodium diprotrizoate (Mioko main pulmonary artery....
