Primary prevention of early postoperative right ventricular failure: clinical experience with the use of levosimendan before implantation of a left ventricular assist device

open access: yesКлинический разбор в общей медицине
Early right ventricular failure after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation is one of the main causes of a worse postoperative prognosis. The problem of de novo right ventricular failure requires the search for methods of primary prevention ...

Isolated Right Ventricular Noncompaction Accompanied by Right Ventricular Failure [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Medicine, 2015
Noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium is a rare congenital cardiomyopathy caused by arrest of normal endomyocardial embryogenesis. Isolated right ventricular noncompaction (IRNC) is an even rarer form of this disease. We report herein on a 68 year-old male diagnosed with IRNC who presented with right-sided heart failure, without involvement of ...
