Misdiagnosed partial anomalous pulmonary venous return as a cause of right ventricular dilation in tricuspid valve dysplasia
Anno:
2024
A 38-year-old woman comes to our attention for regular follow-up of a known tricuspid valve dysplasia, diagnosed since she was 19 years old. The patient has been persistently asymptomatic and hemodynamically compensated. In previous cardiac assessments, there was moderate and stable tricuspid regurgitation (TR) that never reached the diagnostic…
Role of right ventricular myocardial work in the stratification of patients affected by Advanced Heart Failure
Anno:
2024
Background: Currently adopted echocardiographic parameters for the evaluation of right ventricle (RV) are all loading sensitive and their reliability remains poor. RV myocardial work (RVMW) emerged as an innovative non-invasive diagnostic tool that incorporates strain pressure loops and potentially overcomes the aforementioned limitation. No previous studies assessed the variations…
