Computed tomographic assessment of left ventricular aneurysms.
Twenty patients with left ventricular aneurysms were studied by left ventricular angiography and computed tomography. Measurements of left ventricular short axis, percentage of non-aneurysmal myocardium, and size of aneurysm were determined by both techniques. Qualitative assessments of left ventricular size together with the anatomical relation of the aneurysm to the ventricle were also made. ...
متن کاملCLINICOPATHOLOGIC CORRELATIONS True and False Left Ventricular Aneurysms
Two cases are described of sudden death resulting from rupture of small chronic false aneurysm of the left ventricle with secondary hemopericardium. The cases support the point that rupture of chronic false left ventricular aneurysm tends to occur. This appears to be contrary to the potential for chronic true aneurysms of the left ventricle which tend not to rupture. Rupture of true left ventri...
متن کاملIschaemic ventricular aneurysms: true or false?
Left ventricular aneurysm is a common complication of acute myocardial infarction. The reported incidence ranges from 4%, if the definition is restricted to a localised protrusion of the extemal aspect of the left ventricle, to 40%, if localised akinesia or dyskinesia during systole is the criterion.' It has become a common clinical practice to classify ven-tricular aneurysms with an external b...
متن کاملCoincidence of true and false left ventricular aneurysms after myocardial infarction.
False aneurysm of the left ventricle is a rare complication of myocardial infarction. In this case cross sectional echocardiography demonstrated the presence of both true and false left ventricular aneurysms. This was confirmed at operation when both aneurysms were successfully resected.
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Aneurysms of Uncertain Aetiology.
An unusual type of annular, subvalvular left ventricular aneurysm has recently been described in Nigerians by Robertson and Jackson (1960) and Abrahams et al. (1962). A search revealed reports of similar cardiac aneurysms of unknown etiology (Corvisart, 1813; Hunter and Benson, 1933; Berlin and Hallen, 1938; Burn, Hollander, and Crawford, 1943; Higginson and Keeley, 1951; Brink and Barnard, 195...
