[DEFORMITY OF LEFT VENTRICLE WALLS IN PATIENTS WITH AORTAL VALVE STENOSIS]
Abstract:
Parameters of longitudinal deformity of left ventricle walls in patients, suffering aortal valve stenosis (AVS), were analyzed. While the process of heart contraction in norm and in AVS occurs, longitudinal deformity is expressed maximally in its apical divisions. AVS deformity of apical divisions of left ventricle, as well as middle divisions of interventricular septum and lower wall, practically did not differ from such in norm, and deformity of basal divisions of all walls and middle divisions of posterior, lateral and anterior walls of left ventricle was trustworthy less than a norm. Thus, a reduction of the deformity indices in basal divisions of left ventricle and middle segments of its posterior, lateral and anterior walls in patients, suffering AVS with preserved output fraction, precedes the disorders of its hemodynamics and constitutes a predictor for the cardiac output reduction.
