arrhythmia in acute right ventricular infarction
acute inferior myocardial infarction (mi) frequently involves the right ventricle (rv).1-3 we assessed the prognostic impact of rv myocardial involvement in patients with inferior mi. one hundred seventy patients were admitted to the cardiac care unit of madani heart hospital (tabriz-iran) with the diagnosis of inferior mi with (group1) or without (group2) the simultaneous involvement of rv dur...

متن کاملRight ventricular infarction mimicking extensive anterior infarction.
Two patients with inferior infarction complicated by right ventricular infarction are presented. Both manifested electrocardiographic changes involving the anterior chest leads with initial S-T segment elevation followed by loss of R waves and the development of QS complexes mimicking anterior infarction. Cardiac catheterization showed right coronary artery occlusion with normal left coronary s...
متن کاملRight Ventricular Non-Compaction Cardiomyopathy in Children: Brief Review Literature
Right ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy (RVNC) is a genetic heterogeneous cardiomyopathy. Despite the increasing number of RVNC cases, the classification and natural history of this disorder are not completely clear. Also, because the pathogenic non-compaction cannot be easily differentiated from normal trabeculations, it is usually hard to accurately measure the prevalence of RV ...
متن کاملSite of Left Ventricular Infarction
We previously showed that the extent of infarction is virtually identical in patients with anterior and inferior infarction despite the more favorable prognosis associated with the latter. We postulated that the damage associated with inferior infarction is shared by both ventricles, thereby causing less hemodynamic impairment than anterior infarction, which involves only the left ventricle. To...
