Right 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 کاملRight ventricular function in AL amyloidosis: characteristics and prognostic implication.
AIM The importance of right ventricle (RV) dysfunction in AL amyloidosis has been underestimated. This study was designed to comprehensively evaluate RV function and its prognostic role in patients with AL amyloidosis with and without echocardiographic evidence of cardiac involvement. METHOD AND RESULTS Fifty-two biopsy-proven AL amyloidosis patients underwent a thorough echocardiographic eva...
متن کاملRight ventricular dysfunction in Chagas' Cardiomyopathy. Primary involvement or a resonant manifestation of Left ventricular dysfunction?
Background Chagas’ Cardiomyopathy (CC) is an important cause of heart failure and sudden cardiac death (SCD) in Latin America. Migratory movements have spread carriers throughout the world, especially in USA and Europe. Left Ventricle (LV) involvement is a landmark and apical aneurysm a pathognomical sign. Nevertheless, early involvement of the right ventricle (RV) and RV systolic dysfunction i...
متن کاملArrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy.
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) has evolved from postmortem pathology at to a diagnosable clinical condition, and holds promise for definitive genetic diagnosis. Its prevalence is between 1/1,000 and 1/5,000, with 10% of deaths occurring before age 19 and 50% before age 35. When analyzed against age-specific norms, the electrocardiography (ECG) and signal-averaged ECG (SA...
متن کاملArrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy
Arrythmogenic right ventricular (RV) cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a cardiomyopathy characterized pathologically by fibrofatty replacement primarily of the RV and clinically by life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias in apparently healthy young people. The prevalence of the disease has been estimated at 1 in 5,000 individuals, although this estimate will likely increase as awareness of the conditio...
