Prevalence of inferobasal myocardial crypts among patients referred for cardiovascular magnetic resonance.
BACKGROUND Crypts or clefts in the left ventricular inferobasal myocardium have been detected by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), but the extent to which they represent prephenotypic markers of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) or incidental structural variants remains controversial. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined retrospectively the routine vertical long-axis cines in 686 consecutiv...
متن کاملPrevalence and characteristics of myocardial crypts in Japanese patients referred for cardiovascular magnetic resonance
Background Myocardial crypts are narrow, blood-filled invaginations within the left ventricle (LV) wall and detected by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). Recent studies show that a higher prevalence of crypts in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and genotype positive but phenotype negative relatives. Other studies show that myocardial crypts are relatively common in the nor...
متن کاملPrevalence of myocardial crypts in a large retrospective cohort study by cardiovascular magnetic resonance
BACKGROUND Myocardial crypts are discrete clefts or fissures in otherwise compacted myocardium of the left ventricle (LV). Recent reports suggest a higher prevalence of crypts in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and also within small samples of genotype positive but phenotype negative relatives. The presence of a crypt has been suggested to be a predictor of gene carrier status. ...
متن کاملPrevalence of myocardial crypts in a cardiac magnetic resonance population - a large cohort study
Background Myocardial crypts are discrete clefts or fissures in otherwise compacted myocardium of the left ventricle (LV) commonly located in basal inferior or inferoseptal segments. Few small studies reported higher prevalence of crypts in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) or their unexpressed relatives, and linked crypts to a marker of genotype positive phenotype negative carrie...
متن کاملReal-time cine and myocardial perfusion with treadmill exercise stress cardiovascular magnetic resonance in patients referred for stress SPECT
BACKGROUND To date, stress cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has relied on pharmacologic agents, and therefore lacked the physiologic information available only with exercise stress. METHODS 43 patients age 25 to 81 years underwent a treadmill stress test incorporating both Tc99m SPECT and CMR. After rest Tc99m SPECT imaging, patients underwent resting cine CMR. Patients then underwent ...
