Ventricular tachycardia in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with apical aneurysm.
Midventricular hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a rare form of cardiomyopathy that may be associated with an apical aneurysm. The mechanism of aneurysm formation is uncertain, but it may be related to subendocardial ischemia. In this report, we describe a 57-year-old man with recurrent ventricular arrhythmias that were refractory to medical treatment because of midventricular hypertrophic cardiom...
متن کاملMid-Ventricular Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy Complicated by an Apical Aneurysm, Presenting as Ventricular Tachycardia
A 69-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with palpitations and dizziness of half an hour duration. The patient’s history included dyslipidemia under atorvastatin. The patient was hemodynamically stable. The 12-lead surface electrocardiogram demonstrated sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) with a left ventricular origin and north-west axis at 200 beats/min (Fig. 1A). Cardiove...
متن کاملClinical sustained uniform ventricular tachycardia in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: association with left ventricular apical aneurysm.
Of 51 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who had episodes of ventricular tachycardia detected during ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring only two had clinical sustained uniform ventricular tachycardia that required medical treatment because of worsening symptoms. In both patients the arrhythmia was associated with the uncommon finding of an apical aneurysm with angiographically no...
متن کاملTwo cases of dilated cardiomyopathy complicated by left ventricular aneurysm.
This report describes two patients with dilated cardiomyopathy associated with angiographically proven left ventricular aneurysm. There was no apparent history of myocardial infarction and coronary arteries were angiographically normal in both cases.
متن کاملNonsustained Ventricular Tachycardia in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Spirito et all report on the prognostic significance of nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) during Holter monitoring in a highly selected cohort of 151 asymptomatic patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Patient selection excluded patients with moderate to severe symptoms (New York Heart Association functional classes III and IV), those with previous syncopal episodes, and those...
