Left Ventricular Noncompaction

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2009
Left Ventricular Noncompaction(LVNC) is a genetic cardiac disease of emerging importance with a distinct clinical and pathophysiological presentation. The most common clinical manifestations include heart failure,arrhythmias and embolic events, and in ...

Impact of left ventricular ejection fraction on left ventricular thrombus resolution [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Poor left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is associated with an increased risk of left ventricular (LV) thrombus formation. However, the effect of LVEF on thrombus resolution remains unclear.

Basal pseudoaneurysm of the lateral wall of the left ventricle – case report [PDF]

open access: yesБългарска кардиология, 2022
Left ventricle pseudoaneurysm is a rare but serious complication, most often secondary to myocardial infarction. It is associated with high mortality due to a significant risk of rupture.

Left Ventricular Pseudoaneurysm

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports
A 55-year-old man submitted to emergency surgery due to cardiac perforation by stabbing. One month later, he presented with chest pain, and a transthoracic echocardiogram revealed moderate-severe mitral regurgitation.

Analysis of left ventricular behaviour in diastole by means of finite element method [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
The human left ventricle in diastole can be modelled as a passive structure with incremental internal pressure change being considered as the load. Recent developments in engineering stress analysis provide techniques for predicting the behaviour of ...

Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2006
A 49-year-old female patient with a history of coronary artery disease was seen in our hospital because of a recurrent pseudoaneurysm of the left ventricle (LV). In 1993, she suffered from an anteroseptal wall myocardial infarction complicated by a ventricular septal rupture requiring surgical closure of the defect with a patch.

Left ventricular twist in left ventricular noncompaction [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal - Cardiovascular Imaging, 2013
Left ventricular (LV) twist is an important component of systolic function. The effect of abnormal LV twist on adverse remodelling of the heart in left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is unknown. This study used speckle-tracking echocardiography to evaluate LV twist in patients with LVNC and determine whether abnormal LV twist is associated with more ...
