Left Heart Angiocardiography in Congenital Heart Disease

The British Journal of Radiology, 1962
The intention in this paper is to describe most of the major congenital malformations which involve the aorta and the left side of the heart, with the exception of such abnormalities as coarctation and anomalies of the great vessels which have already been described extensively in the literature.

Pulmonary hypertension caused by left heart disease

Anadolu Kardiyoloji Dergisi/The Anatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2010
Increased resistance to pulmonary venous drainage is the main mechanism in pulmonary hypertension (PH) developing due to left heart disease. This condition may occur as a result of various diseases affecting left ventricle, left atrium, mitral or aortic valves.

Left ventricular contraction in coronary heart disease

Clinical Radiology, 1978
Left ventricular contraction was studied in 128 patients with severely symptomatic coronary heart disease which was confirmed by coronary angiography. A classification of abnormal contraction is used based on left ventricular cine-angiography in the right anterior oblique projection. 1. Normal contraction (43 patients) 2.

Left Ventricular Aneurysm in Rubella Heart Disease

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1970
A 3-year-old patient with the rubella syndrome was studied by cardiac catheterization and cineangiography and was found to have an aneurysm of the left ventricle in addition to a persistent ductus arteriosus and hypoplasia with coarctations of the pulmonary arteries. The ductus arteriosus was ligated and divided, and residual myocardial dysfunction was

LEFT HEART INVOLVEMENT WITH CARDIAC SHUNT COMPLICATING CARCINOID HEART DISEASE

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Medicine, 1989
AbstractThe manifestations of carcinoid heart disease are usually right heart failure due to pulmonary and tricuspid valve disease and sometimes high output failure due to peripheral vasodilation. Recently there has been one case report of progressive central cyanosis due to right to left shunting through a patent foramen ovale.1 We present a similar ...

LEFT VENTRICULAR ANEURYSM IN RUBELLA HEART DISEASE

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1971
To the Editor .—The recent article in the Journal, entitled "Left Ventricular Aneurysm in Rubella Heart Disease," 1 was of special interest to me. In 1967 I had occasion to review the cardiovascular defects that had been described in association with the rubella syndrome.

Pulmonary Hypertension Owing to Left Heart Disease

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2013
The relationship between pulmonary hypertension and left heart disease is complex. When initial assessment suggests the presence of pulmonary hypertension, it is critical to determine its precise nature: pulmonary arterial hypertension versus pulmonary hypertension owing to left heart disease.

Treatment for Pulmonary Hypertension of Left Heart Disease

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2012
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) secondary to left heart disease is a largely underestimated target of therapy. Except for a specific focus on PH consequences in patients with advanced heart failure (HF) receiving a left ventricular mechanical assist device or candidates for transplantation, prevention and treatment of initial subclinical forms of PH are ...

Epidemiology of Pulmonary Hypertension in Left Heart Disease

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2016
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) in the setting of left side heart disease is associated with adverse outcomes. The exact prevalence of PH in the different pathologies that affect the left ventricle, however, is difficult to access with the current literature.
