Isolated right ventricular hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two cases of isolated hypertrophic cardiomyopathy of right ventricle without any involvement of interventricular septum or left ventricle are reported. Two cases reported in literature are also reviewed. In these cases symptoms are those of left ventricular hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. Right ventricular dominance on clinical examination and electrocardiogram and inspiratory increase in intensity of murmur are helpful clues. 2-Dimensional echocardiography with Doppler evaluation can confirm the diagnosis noninvasively.

Varieties of right ventricular diastolic function in patients with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
We examined whether differences in the location of myocardial hypertrophy influence the right ventricular diastolic function in patients with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy using cineangiography. Biplane right ventriculography was performed in 34 subjects (normal = 14, asymmetric septal hypertrophy = 9, apical hypertrophy = 11) during cardiac catheterization. In patients with asymm...
متن کاملApical Right Ventricular Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy—A Case Report
A relatively infrequent form of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the isolated apical variant and it is more common in oriental people, especially in the Japanese. It contributes 25% of cases of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in Japan but only 1% to 2% in the non-Japanese population. It may occasionally present in the elderly and classically involve the apex of the left ventricle. An isolated apical ...
متن کاملSubaortic-Right Atrial Fistula after Endocarditis in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.
UNLABELLED Infective endocarditis in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy is rare. Management of this disease is challenging due to the unique features of dynamic pressure gradient over the left ventricular outflow tract and its unpredictable interaction with the management of sepsis. The added complexity of infective endocarditis further complicates an already difficult situation. A 72-year...
متن کاملHypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy with multiple coronary arteries to right ventricular microfistulas: a case report and review of the literature
BACKGROUND Coronary artery microfistulas are a rare anomaly; their association with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is even rarer and can lead to serious cardiac complications owing to coronary steal phenomena such as angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, ventricular and supraventricular arrhythmias, syncope, and sudden death. CASE PRESENTATION A 32-year-old Indian wom...
متن کاملPredominant, severe right ventricular outflow tract obstruction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Recently, new cardiac imaging techniques as cardiac magnetic resonance have shown to play a primary role for a recognition of unusual mechanisms of right and left ventricular obstruction. However, echocardiography remains the most widely used technique and the first step to recognize myocardial hypertrophy, blood flow velocity, and pressure gradients in real time (2). We describe a rare case of...
