Ventricular Non-Compaction in Children
Since 1969, when a bizarre, coarse, and trabecular appearance of the right and left ventricular myocardium was demonstrated angiographically and... -
Surgical Ventricular Remodeling in Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, including medications and mechanical circulatory support, ischemic cardiomyopathy remains a substantial... -
Patch Materials for Pulmonary Artery Arterioplasty and Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Augmentation: A Review
Patch augmentation of the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) and pulmonary artery (PA) arterioplasty are relatively common procedures in the...
