A newborn with right isomerism, infracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR), and obstruction of the ductus venosus underwent stent implantation in the ductus venosus at 4 h after birth. This procedure averted early pulmonary venous obstruction. Since gradual neointimal proliferation subsequently occurred within the stent, the patient underwent stent balloon dilatation at 35 days o...... hiện toàn bộ

A 39-year-old male who had undergone tricuspid valve replacement for severe tricuspid regurgitation was admitted with palpitation and general edema. Two-dimensional (2D) echocardiography showed tricuspid prosthetic valve dysfunction. Additional three-dimensional (3D) transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) could clearly demonstrate the disabilities of the mechanical tricuspid valv...... hiện toàn bộ
Left atrial dilatation in systolic heart failure: a marker of poor prognosis, not just a buffer between the left ventricle and pulmonary circulationJournal of Echocardiography - Tập 16 - Trang 155-161 - 2018

The relation between systolic pulmonary pressure (sPAP) and left atrium in patients with heart failure (HF) is unclear. Diastolic dysfunction, expressed as restrictive mitral filling pattern (RMP), and functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) are associated with both LA enlargement and increased sPAP. We aimed to evaluate whether atrial dilation might modulate the consequences of RMP and FMR on the p...... hiện toàn bộ
Abnormal left ventricular relaxation and symptoms of heart failureJournal of Echocardiography - Tập 14 - Trang 113-119 - 2016

The purpose of our study was to assess the echocardiographic and angiographic parameters in patients with symptomatic heart failure (HF) and mild diastolic dysfunction (grade I). It remains uncertain why some patients with mild diastolic dysfunction exhibit HF symptoms and others are asymptomatic. The study enrolled 80 hospitalized patients with impaired left ventricular (LV) relaxation. Patients ...... hiện toàn bộ
