Phonocardiogram and apex cardiogram in systolic click--late systolic murmur syndrome.

Clinical and Electrocardiographic comparison of patients with primary Mitral Valve Prolapse Syndrome and control group

ABSTRACT: Mitral Valve Prolapse (WVP) in one of the commonest cardiac abnormalities. Echocardiography has generally been accepted as the diagnostic modality of choice, To assess the characteristic symptoms signs and electrocardiographic abnormalities of MVP results of prospective 500 age and sex matched healthy subjects without echocardiographic MVP (control subjects). The diagnostic criteria...

Recurrent Hodgkin's disease manifesting roentgenographically as a pleural mass.

the apex even without vasoactive maneuvers. On follow-up clinic visits two weeks and three months after discharge, the patient felt quite well, and auscultation of the heart revealed prominent late systolic click but no murmur. However, a late systolic murmur could again be precipitated by isometric exercise. DIscussIoN Until the past few years, a late systolic murmur at the apex, preceded by a...

Effect of position on echocardiographic diagnosis of mitral valve prolapse

Echocardiography has been accepted as the diagnostic modality of choice for mitral valve prolapse (MVP). The determine the effect of position on echocardiographic diagnosis of MVP, we examined 693 consecutive patients referred to the echocardiography laboratory because of suspected MVP. First, patients were examined using the usual standard M-Mode echocardiography( left parasternal third or fou...

Diagnostic auscultatory complex in coarctation of the aorta.

In spite of numerous descriptions of the auscultatory and phonocardiographic findings in "adult" coarctation of the aorta (Reifenstein, Levine, and Gross, 1947; Wells, Rappaport, and Sprague, 1949; Brown et al., 1959; Cleland et al., 1956; Wood, 1956; Spencer, Johnston, and Meredith, 1958; Gasul, Arcilla, and Lev, 1966), no specific diagnostic auscultatory pattern has been outlined. The general...
