There is ventricular hypertrophy in the absence of abnormal loading conditions, such as aortic stenosis, or hypertension, for example – of which the most common variant is Asymmetric Septal Hypertrophy. As a brief review, HCM is a genetically inherited disorder that produces structural disarray in the myocardial cells. References Naidu, S.

Note that this obvious STEMI does not have 100% stenosis at the time of cath. Figure-2: Comparison between ST elevation in lead V3 due to a repolarization variant ( TOP — from 4/27/2019 ) — vs acute OMI ( BOTTOM — from 9/20/2015 ), which manifests T-QRS-D ( See text ). PCI was performed, with TIMI 3 flow after the intervention.

Risk factors and severity of disease progression in children with moyamoya and posterior cerebral artery (PCA) stenosis have not been well described in the literature. Previous research has shown an association between PCA stenosis and increased risk of post-operative stroke. Children with moyamoya and PCA stenosis had a 3.5

Objectives Grading the severity of moderate mixed aortic stenosis and regurgitation (MAVD) is challenging and the disease poorly understood. Methods Moderate MAVD was defined as coexisting moderate aortic stenosis (aortic valve area (AVA) 1.0–1.5 –1.5 cm 2 ) and moderate aortic regurgitation (vena contracta (VC) 0.3–0.6
