Double-chambered left ventricle: diagnosis by CMR and review of the literature
BackgroundA double-chambered left ventricle (DCLV) is an extremely rare congenital malformation. The exact prevalence of DCLV is not known, although...

Malposition of a pulmonary artery catheter in the left ventricle: a case report
BackgroundPlacement of pulmonary artery catheters may be associated with a variety of complications. We present a case where a pulmonary artery...
-
The measurement of the left ventricle ejection fraction by a bedside FoCUS examination
The use of point-of-care ultrasound is rapidly increasing in medical practice. This study aims to evaluate the left ventricle systolic function by...
-
The prevalence of abnormal right ventricle speckle strain in the setting of acute myocarditis and preserved left ventricle function
BackgroundAcute myocarditis has a wide spectrum of clinical presentation, from subclinical disease to acute heart failure, and sudden cardiac death....
-
Minimally invasive cardiac surgery via bilateral thoracotomy in treatment of left ventricle aneurysm: a case report
BackgroundLeft ventricle aneurysm (LVA) as a sequela to myocardial infarction or iatrogenic injury is required surgical treatment with full median...
-
Left ventricular pseudo-false aneurysm perforating the right ventricle: two case reports
BackgroundLeft ventricular (LV) pseudo-false aneurysm is a rare and fatal complication secondary to myocardial infarction. Sometimes, it may...

Left ventricle reverse remodeling in chronic aortic regurgitation patients with dilated ventricle after aortic valve replacement
BackgroundAortic valve replacement (AVR) for chronic aortic regurgitation (AR) with a severe dilated left ventricle and dysfunction leads to left...
-
Left atrial strain evaluation to assess left ventricle diastolic dysfunction and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: a guide to clinical practice
Although frequently unrecognized, left atrium (LA) function plays a key role in global cardiac performance as it modulates left ventricle (LV)...

Changes in blood flow vortices inside the left ventricle in COVID-19 patients with intraventricular clot despite a normal coronary and myocardial motion
PurposeOur clinical observations showed clot formations in different regions of the left ventricle of the heart in some COVID-19 patients with normal...
-
Comparison of the stage-dependent mitochondrial changes in response to pressure overload between the diseased right and left ventricle in the rat
The right ventricle (RV) differs developmentally, anatomically and functionally from the left ventricle (LV). Therefore, characteristics of LV...
-
Combined physical training protects the left ventricle from structural and functional damages in experimental pulmonary arterial hypertension
BackgroundUnder the adverse remodeling of the right ventricle and interventricular septum in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) the left ventricle...

Echocardiographic and histopathological study on vegetative growth in the left ventricle of a buffalo
Endocarditis is inflammation of the endocardium of the heart, and it might be of infectious origin or vegetative origin. In buffaloes, most of the...

Transaortic removal of a large primary sarcoma from the left ventricle assisted by strategic partial resection and endoscopic guidance: a case report
BackgroundSurgical resection remains the mainstay of treatment for cardiac sarcoma, a rare but lethal disease. Achieving complete removal of a...
-
Volume and function changes of left atrium and left ventricle in patients with ejection fraction preserved heart failure measured by a three dimensional dynamic heart model
The accurate diagnosis of HFpEF is still challenging and controversial. In this study, we used 3D-DHM technology to compare the differences of...
-
MRI-derived cardiac washout is slowed in the left ventricle and associated with left ventricular non-compaction in young patients with cryptogenic ischemic stroke
To elucidate underlying disease mechanisms, we compared transition of gadolinium-based contrast agent bolus in cardiac chambers in magnetic resonance...

Electrophysiological characteristics and catheter ablation of ventricular arrhythmias arising from the superior septal left ventricle
Background and aimsElectrophysiological characteristics and radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) of premature ventricular contractions (PVCs)...
-
Cardiac structure discontinuities revealed by ex-vivo microstructural characterization. A focus on the basal inferoseptal left ventricle region
BackgroundWhile the microstructure of the left ventricle (LV) has been largely described, only a few studies investigated the right ventricular...
-
Assessment of subclinical left ventricle myocardial dysfunction using global myocardial work in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with preserved left ventricle ejection fraction
BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to assess subclinical left ventricle (LV) myocardial dysfunction using global myocardial work (MW) in type 2...

Total endoscopic left ventricle lipoma removal
BackgroundLeft ventricle (LV) lipoma is a very rare, benign cardiac tumor. Due to its rarity, LV lipoma is often misdiagnosed. Aspecific symptoms...
