Left ventricular apical diseases
There are many disorders that may involve the left ventricular (LV) apex; however, they are sometimes difficult to differentiate. In this setting cardiac imaging methods can provide the clue to obtaining the diagnosis. The purpose of this review is to illustrate the spectrum of diseases that most frequently affect the apex of the LV including Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy, LV aneurysms and pseudoan...

متن کاملIsolated left ventricular apical hypoplasia.
the apex of the right ventricular cavity as the left intraventricular pressure increases. Differential diagnosis of this pathology requires the presence of left ventricular hypoplasia, aneurysms and ventricular diverticula. The ventricular hypoplasia is characterized by a small and hypertrophic ventricular chamber and dysplastic cardiac valves. The diverticul originates on the ventricular wall ...
متن کامل[Congenital apical left ventricular aneurysm].
Congenital ventricular aneurysm is an infrequently occurring disease entity that usually affects the left ventricle. Its etiopathology is unknown. Clinical presentation is variable, and the condition is potentially lethal in some cases. Various imaging techniques are useful in diagnosis and enable the condition to be differentiated from congenital left diverticulum. We present a patient with a ...
متن کاملLeft ventricular apical thin point.
The wall thickness of the apex of the left ventricle has been measured at its thinnest point in 60 adult hearts at necropsy. This measured 2 mm or less in 97% of them and 1 mm or less in 67%.
