Hypoplastic Left Ventricle: Hypoplastic Left Heart Complex

World Journal for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery, 2022
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) without intrinsic valvar stenosis or atresia is synonymous with the term hypoplastic left heart complex (HLHC) and is defined as a cardiac malformation at the milder end of the spectrum of HLHS with normally aligned great arteries without a common atrioventricular junction, characterized by underdevelopment of ...

Aorta-to-Left Ventricle Tunnel Associated with Noncompaction Left Ventricle

Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography, 2006
We present a case of aorta-to-left ventricle (LV) tunnel and noncompaction LV in a 26-year-old woman. She was referred to our echocardiography laboratory for evaluation of aortic regurgitation by echocardiographic examination, which led to the diagnosis of the congenital abnormality of aorta-to-LV tunnel and noncompaction LV.

Myxoma of the Left Ventricle

The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 1986
We report a case of left ventricular myxoma in a 19-year-old man which presented as intermittent aortic valve obstruction. Echocardiography provided a comprehensive diagnosis, and excision through a left ventriculotomy was safely accomplished.

The “Lazy Left Ventricle”

1978
Apart from left ventricular filling pressure the angiographically determined left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is the most widely accepted index of left ventricular function. Since LVEF is used in many instances as a parameter to estimate the risk in patients undergoing heart surgery the clinical implications of LVEF determinations are far ...

1.5-Ventricle Repair Using Left Ventricle as the Subpulmonary Ventricle

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2020
The use of the left ventricle as the subpulmonary ventricle to achieve a 1.5 or biventricular circulation is feasible in heterotaxy patients with complex intracardiac anatomy and acceptable right ventricular function. It is an alternative in patients who are not ideal candidates for single-ventricle palliation.

The Left Ventricle

2010
The left ventricle forms the apex and the lower part of the left heart border. It is shaped like a cone (ellipsoid of revolution) with its long axis directed from the apex to the base. Real-time 3D TEE may depict the internal configuration of the ventricle by properly cutting the left ventricle through longitudinal planes.

Left ventricle Hermite-based segmentation

Computers in Biology and Medicine, 2017
In recent years, computed tomography (CT) has become a standard technique in cardiac imaging because it provides detailed information that may facilitate the diagnosis of the conditions that interfere with correct heart function. However, CT-based cardiac diagnosis requires manual segmentation of heart cavities, which is a difficult and time-consuming ...

Lipoma of the Left Ventricle

Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals, 2002
A 36-year-old female was admitted with dyspnea on exertion of one year's duration. Echocardiography revealed a tumor arising from interventricular septum with dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. On cardiopulmonary bypass with cardioplegic arrest, the tumor was approached through a transverse aortotomy, and excised from the ...

The Bioengineered Cardiac Left Ventricle

ASAIO Journal, 2018
Left ventricle and aortic valve underdevelopment are presentations in the congenital cardiac condition hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS); current clinical treatments involve right ventricle refunctionalization. Cardiac organoid models provide simplified open chambers engineered into a flow loop, to ameliorate ventricle-type function.

Left ventricle

Abstract The assessment and management of the left ventricle is covered in other chapters of this handbook. Assessment of left ventricular function involves the use of invasive monitoring such as pulmonary artery catheters to measure the cardiac output at echocardiographic assessment with TTE or TOE.
