Unusual Left Ventricular Mass [PDF]
A20-year-old man, previously asymptomatic, showed an incidental finding at echocardiography of a left ventricular mass. In the Figure⇓, A is a two-dimensional echocardiogram in the apical four-chamber view showing a round mass (arrow), scarcely mobile, attached to the left ventricular …

Relative Importance of Aortic Stiffness and Volume as Predictors of Treatment-Induced Improvement in Left Ventricular Mass Index in Dialysis. [PDF]
This study aimed to explore the relative contribution of aortic stiffness and volume in treatment-induced change of left ventricular mass in dialysis. Hypertension in Hemodialysis Patients Treated with Atenolol or Lisinopril trial compared the effect of ...

Overestimation of left ventricular mass [PDF]
Overestimation of left ventricular mass: yes, but with which imaging? We read with interest the article by Kuhl et al.,1 which demonstrated that left ventricular mass using conventional M-mode echocardiography is overestimated, as compared to left ventricular mass using 3D echo. …

Background: Increasing left ventricular mass in hypertensive patients is an independent prognostic marker for adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Genetic factors have been shown to critically affect left ventricular mass.

Echocardiography of left ventricular masses. [PDF]
The M-mode and two-dimensinal real-time echocardiographic findings in 10 patients with left ventricular masses are discussed. Two patients had left ventricular tumors and eight had left ventricular thrombi. In all cases the diagnosis was confirmed by angiography or surgery.

Synchronous Left Ventricular and Endocranial Mass
Myocardial cysts represent a miscellaneous and infrequent spectrum of conditions, with each of them coming from a different etiological background. Congenital myocardial cysts, neoplasia, cysts of infectious origin (bacterial, viral, or parasitic), and cardiac pathologies that may fake cystic content are all encompassed in this group.

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance of cardiac function and myocardial mass in preterm infants: a preliminary study of the impact of patent ductus arteriosus [PDF]
BackgroundMany pathologies seen in the preterm population are associated with abnormal blood supply, yet robust evaluation of preterm cardiac function is scarce and consequently normative ranges in this population are limited.

Asymptomatic Obese Hypertensives and Need of Routine Echocardiography for Left Ventricular Mass Assessment and Treatment [PDF]
Background: Echocardiographic determination of Left Ventricle Mass (LVM) – an important marker of cardiovascular disease, has been given a lot of importance in clinical diagnosis and in planning of treatment.
