| Popis: | In forty-one patients with various heart diseases including 29 with LVH, the vectorcardiograms of Frank system and angiocardiographic findings correlated minutely. Based on the left ventricular wall thickness in end-diastole, left ventricular end-diastolic volume, and the length of the long axis of the left ventricle obtained in angiocardiograms, typical left ventricular hypertrophy was classified into types 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b anatomically. The vectorcardiograms in these 4 types represented different patterns with regard to the QRS and T loops respectively. The QRS voltage in the left ventricular hypertrophy closely correlated to the left ventricular wall thickness in end-diastole, the left ventricular end-diastolic volume, and the left ventricular mass. Marked ST and T changes in the left ventricular concentric hypertrophy characterized by increase in wall thickness without definite chamber enlargement may be closely related to the abnormal muscle state with the increased left ventricular wall thickness, the probably due to relative hypoxia in origin. The Q loop of patients with severe left ventricular concentric hypertrophy was definitely differentiated from that of most patients with the pure left ventricular eccentric hypertrophy which was characterized by chamber enlargement with usually slight thickening of the wall. A possible mechanism regarding inconspicuous or prominent Q loops in both concentric and eccentric LVH was presented. An important factor of the delay of the time of occurrence of the spatial R vector in the left ventricular eccentric hypertrophy is the greater distance of the intraventricular conducting pathways caused by the left ventricular dilatation. By means of assessing the vectorcardiogram of the left ventricular hypertrophy, relatively exact anatomy of the left ventricular hypertrophy can be determined. |
