Right ventricular Hemodynamic Alteration after Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Children with Congenital Heart Disease
Introduction: In patients who underwent surgery to repair Tetralogy of Fallot, right ventricular dilation from pulmonary regurgitation may be result in right ventricular failure, arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Hence, pulmonary valve replacement may be necessary to reduce right ventricular volume overload. The aim of present study was to assess the effects of pulmonary valve replacement on rig...
متن کاملRegional right ventricular dysfunction in acute pulmonary embolism and right ventricular infarction.
BACKGROUND A normally contracting right ventricular apex associated to a severe hypokinesia of the mid-free wall ('McConnell sign') has been considered a distinct echocardiographic pattern of acute pulmonary embolism. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical utility of the 'McConnell sign' in the bedside diagnostic work-up of patients presenting to the Emergency Department with an acute right ventr...
متن کاملRescue circumflex artery stenting for major right ventricular dysfunction after Ross-Konno operation.
A single coronary artery is an anomaly in which only 1 coronary artery arises from the aortic root, supplying the entire heart. We report the case of a 5-year-old girl in whom a single coronary artery ostium was discovered during a Ross-Konno operation. This patient required extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for postoperative right ventricular infarction due to proximal stenosis of a dominant...
متن کاملRight ventricular dysfunction in systemic sclerosis-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension.
BACKGROUND Systemic sclerosis–associated pulmonary artery hypertension (SScPAH) has a worse prognosis compared with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH), with a median survival of 3 years after diagnosis often caused by right ventricular (RV) failure. We tested whether SScPAH or systemic sclerosis–related pulmonary hypertension with interstitial lung disease imposes a greater pulmo...
متن کاملRight ventricular dysfunction and functional limitation in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
there are significant overlaps in clinical, physiological and pathological features of the two diseases, including the mechanisms of bronchial hyperresponsiveness and atopy that drive obstructive phenotypes [7]. Although asthma may progress to chronic irreversible airflow obstruction, changes in reversibility over time are not widely reported [8, 9]. It may be that we require a new taxonomy to ...
