Left ventricular apex occluder. Description of a Ventricular Partitioning Device.
Description Implant device and delivery system. The Ventricular Partitioning Device (VPD) is an intraventricular Implant that is deployed in the Left Ventricle (LV) in patients with regional wall motion abnormalities following myocardial infarction (MI). The implant device is delivered via a guiding catheter and delivery system introduced percutaneously from the femoral artery by the standard t...
متن کاملLeft ventricular apex ablation decreases the upper limit of vulnerability.
BACKGROUND After shocks with an approximately 50% probability of success for the upper limit of vulnerability (ULV(50)) of strength, the first few activations appear focally on the epicardium at almost the same site at the left ventricular (LV) apex in both successful and failed induction of ventricular fibrillation (VF). We tested the hypothesis that subendocardial ablation at this early site ...
متن کاملBall-Shaped Thrombi in the Left Ventricular Apex
A 67-year-old man was admitted to the cardiology department because of exertional dyspnea and orthopnea aggravated for 10 days. Transthoracic echocardiography showed dilated left ventricle (LV) with global hypokinesia with severely decreased systolic function (ejection fraction was estimated to be about 15%). Two oscillating masses with smooth, spherical contour were found in the LV apex (Fig. ...
متن کاملThe Apex Cardiogram in Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction.
392 rest. In patients T.T. and M.J. the diagnosis was not suspected until cardiac catheterization. The former had a ventriculo-aortic gradient of 18 mm. Hg during exercise. In patients M.S., R.G., R.J., and M.P. the diagnosis had been suggested by clinical examination, since these patients presented many of the features characteristic of this condition.2 These four patients had a resting subval...
متن کاملCalcified aneurysm of left ventricular apex in apical cardiomyopathy.
Volume 39, Number 5, 2012 758 Calcified Mass at Left Ventricular Apex Fig. 2 A) Coronary angiogram shows normal epicardial coronary arteries with a calcified spherical lesion at the left ventricular apex (arrow). B) Angiogram shows obliteration of the mid-left ventricular cavity (a rrowhead) during systole and distortion of the ventricle’s classic “ace of spades” appearance by the apical aneury...
