Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a disease mainly caused by desmosome gene mutations. The genetic culprit, however, remains elusive in ∼50% of ARVC patients. One the reasons for missing abnormalities difficulty detecting large deletions/duplications, which are called as copy number variation (CNV) Sanger sequencing method. This study aimed to identify CNVs PKP2 and part other genes cohort consisted 71 probands who were diagnosed definite or borderline cases based on...
A 60-year-old female with premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) originating from the bottom of posteromedial papillary muscle left ventricle underwent radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) using an irrigated-tip catheter. During PVCs, a loud steam pop was observed. Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) revealed growing, hyperechogenic intramyocardial microbubble formation around tip. The disappeared slowly and completely, leaving endocardial laceration without pericardial effusion. ICE...
Introduction: The significance of high precordial electrocardiograms in idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF) is unknown. Method: This study included 50 consecutive patients (48 men; age, 42±18 years) who had spontaneous not linked to structural heart disease and received implantable cardiac defibrillator therapy. IVF was diagnosed 35 Brugada syndrome other 15 patients. Electrocardiograms intercostal space were compared between with 105 age- sex-matched healthy controls (patient: control...
1022 Ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death -Diagnostic methods Conclusion:In survivors of acute MI, a flat tachogram was strong mortality predictor.In the remaining patients with non-flat tachograms, SDB frequently present, but not associated mortality.However, short duration average CVHR episode an independent predictor 5-year all-cause mortality.
