Gross pathology of left ventricular hypertrophy. Left ventricle is at right in image, serially sectioned from apex to near base. There are several sets of criteria used to diagnose LVH via electrocardiography. [10] None of them are perfect, though by using multiple criteria sets, the sensitivity and specificity are increased.
Ventricular hypertrophy (VH) is thickening of the walls of a ventricle (lower chamber) of the heart. [ 1 ] [ better source needed ] Although left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is more common, right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH), as well as concurrent hypertrophy of both ventricles can also occur.
Left ventricular hypertrophy. Hypertensive heart disease is the result of structural and functional adaptations [18] leading to left ventricular hypertrophy, [19] [20] [21] diastolic dysfunction, [18] [20] CHF (Congestive Heart Failure), abnormalities of blood flow due to atherosclerotic coronary artery disease [18] and microvascular disease, [10] [19] and cardiac arrhythmias. [19]
The cause of your lower left abdominal pain could depend on your biological gender at birth, says Dr. Ross. “Since the anatomy is different between genders, a differential diagnosis list can be ...
The diagnosis of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction is usually made by echocardiographic assessment and is defined as a peak left ventricular outflow tract gradient of ≥ 30 mmHg. [ 35 ] Another, non-obstructive variant of HCM is apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy ( AHCM or ApHCM ), [ 37 ] also called Yamaguchi syndrome .
[1] [4] left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is defined as an abnormal increase in LVM, an important independent risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. [5] [6] [7] LVM is also an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease even within the normal limits. [8] A reduction in LVM following antihypertensive treatment or aortic ...
Ventricular remodeling may include ventricular hypertrophy, ventricular dilation, cardiomegaly, and other changes. It is an aspect of cardiomyopathy, of which there are many types. Concentric hypertrophy is due to pressure overload, while eccentric hypertrophy is due to volume overload. [6]
