The riddle of the right ventricle [PDF]
Right ventricular (RV) myxoma is a very rare finding. Its differential diagnosis includes cardiac thrombus, and its risk of life-threatening complications mandates early diagnosis followed by surgical resection. We report the case of a patient with an incidental RV mass and a difficult differential diagnosis.

The right treatment for the right ventricle
Right ventricular (RV) function is an important determinant of morbidity and mortality in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Although substantial progress has been made in understanding the development of RV failure in the last decennia, this has not yet resulted in the development of RV selective therapies.

Evidence that conflict regarding size of haemodynamic response to interventricular delay optimization of cardiac resynchronization therapy may arise from differences in how atrioventricular delay is kept constant. [PDF]
Aims: Whether adjusting interventricular (VV) delay changes haemodynamic efficacy of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is controversial, with conflicting results.

Prognosis in pulmonary hypertension is strictly linked to right ventricle failure, which results from uncoupling between right ventricle function and its afterload.

Contrast Enhancement of the Right Ventricle during Coronary CT Angiography--Is It Necessary?
PURPOSE:It is unclear if prolonged contrast media injection, to improve right ventricular visualization during coronary CT angiography, leads to increased detection of right ventricle pathology.

In the light of current knowledge right ventricle
There are important differences between left and right ventricle. Due to anatomical location and structural features, in daily clinical practice the right ventricle cannot be assessed easily as the left ventricle.

Pulmonary artery interventions after Norwood procedure: Does type or position of shunt predict need for intervention? [PDF]
ObjectivesPulmonary artery stenosis is a potential complication after Norwood palliation for hypoplastic left heart syndrome. It is unclear whether the shunt type or position in the Norwood procedure is associated with the risk of the development of ...

Biventricular repair in children with atrioventricular septal defects and a small right ventricle: Anatomic and surgical considerations [PDF]
ObjectiveWe sought to characterize morphology and to evaluate a strategy of using biventricular repair in patients with a small right ventricle and an unbalanced atrioventricular septal defect.MethodsThirty-eight children with a small right ventricle and
