Fluttering of the interventricular septum. The result of truncal insufficiency.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a child with truncus arteriosus and truncal insufficiency who had diastolic fluttering of the anterior mitral valve leaflet and left ventricular surface of the interventricular septum on echocardiogram. Although the fluttering has been previously described in patients with aortic insufficiency, it has not been reported with truncus arteriosus.

Metastatic tumors to the heart unlike primary cardiac tumors are not rare. Despite its frequency, cardiac metastasis is commonly detected only during autopsy as the symptoms of disseminated metastasis prevail over symptoms caused by cardiac metastasis and hence is overlooked most of the time. Tumors more commonly found metastasizing to the heart are malignancies of lung, breast, esophagus, lymp...
متن کاملA regurgitant jet and echocardiographic abnormalities in aortic regurgitation: an experimental study.
Acute aortic regurgitation was created experimentally in 21 mongrel dogs to examine the relationship of the regurgitant jet to observed echocardiographic findings. The direction of the regurgitant jet was studied by echo contrast injections in the aortic root. Diastolic fluttering of the anterior mitral leaflet (AML) was noted in all 21 dogs irrespective of direction of the jet. Diastolic flutt...

متن کاملMeasurement of Left Ventricular Myocardium Wall Instantaneous Motions with Echocardiographic Sequence Images
Background & Aims: One of the important aims of quantitative cardiac image processing is the clarification of myocardial motions in order to derive biomechanical behavior of the heart in the disease condition. In this study we presented a computerized analysis method for detecting the instantaneous myocardial changes by using 2D echocardiography images. Methods: The analysis was performed on th...
