Tricuspid atresia: analysis of coronary artery distribution and ventricular morphology.
There is still disagreement concerning the precise nature of the anterior ventricular chamber in "tricuspid atresia". Some argue that it is a right ventricle, while our own previous studies have suggested it is comparable to the outlet chamber seen in classical "single ventricle". We have compared the morphology of the anterior ventricular chambers in 48 examples of tricuspid atresia (absent ri...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Function in Tricuspid Atresia
Thirty-one left ventricular (LV) biplane angiograms were performed in 28 patients with tricuspid atresia. Measurements of left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) and left ventricular end-systolic volume were obtained by the modified Simpson's rule and systolic ejection fraction (EF) calculated. Left ventricular volumes and ejection fractions were also obtained in 19 control patients with ...
متن کاملTricuspid Atresia
Left ventricular dimensions and contractility were determined by echocardiography in 33 patients with tricuspid atresia in 1985 and again in 1988. Eight patients remained palliated throughout the 3-year period; neither the left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (153±15% of normal vs. 157+19%o, p=NS) nor a load-independent index of contractility (rate-corrected velocity of shortening [VCFc]/end...
متن کاملRadionuclide measurement of left ventricular ejection fraction in tricuspid atresia.
In 15 patients with tricuspid atresia and one with tricuspid stenosis the left ventricular ejection fraction was measured by equilibrium gated radionuclide angiography and the results compared with those from a control group of 16 patients. The patients with tricuspid atresia had a significantly depressed ejection fraction. Those who had a surgical shunt or who had had pulmonary artery banding ...
متن کاملCoronary artery-right ventricular communication associated with pulmonary atresia and ventricular septal defect.
THE GENESIS OF COMMUNICATIONS between the right ventricle and coronary arteries commonly associated with pulmonary atresia remains uncertain. Edwards' attributed the persistence of these communicating sinusoids to increased right ventricular pressure and emphasized the importance of right ventricular outflow obstruction, intact ventricular septum, and competence of the tricuspid valve. Other au...
