Left ventricular function in rheumatic mitral stenosis.
Haemodynamic factors contributing to clinical disability in patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis have been under discussion and investigation for decades. Prior to the development of left heart catheterization, a low cardiac output in the presence of little or no pulmonary hypertension was taken as evidence for a myocardial 'insufficiency'. With the use of left heart catheterization, it was ...
متن کاملan unusual case of mitral stenosis with coronary ar- tery and left ventricular apical aneurysm
the left ventricular aneurysm is one of the most significant complications of myocardial infarction and is defined as the expansion of the ventricular wall. the coronary artery aneurysm is characterized by an abnormal dilation of the localized portion of the coronary artery, and its main cause is atherosclerosis. we herein report an unusual case of coronary artery and left ventricular aneurysms...
متن کاملEvaluation of the left ventricle in patients with mitral stenosis.
M ANY THEORIES have been advanced concerning the mechanisms responsible for the reduced cardiac output in patients with mitral stenosis.1 Although the mechanical block at the mitral orifice is traditionally the most important factor,2 it is obviously not the entire answer since cardiac output frequently does not increase following mitral commissurotomy.3 5 Some investigators consider that this ...
متن کاملEvaluation of left ventricular function with strain/strain rate imaging in patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis.
OBJECTIVE The most important sequel of acute rheumatic fever is mitral stenosis in long-term. The aim of the study is to determine left ventricular (LV) functions by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) and strain/strain rate echocardiography (SE/SRE) in mitral stenosis patients who had no clinical signs of heart failure. METHODS Our study was designed as cross-sectional study. The study population c...
متن کاملMitral stenosis with high left ventricular diastolic pressure.
Three patients with mitral stenosis are described, in whom the haemodynamic findings at cardiac catheterisation were more suggestive of left ventricular myocardial disease, in that the left ventricular diastolic pressure was high and the mitral valve gradient small. However, their echocardiograms showed abnormal wall movement during diastole characteristic of severe inflow obstruction, with slo...
