Popis: | Twenty eight patients aged 31 to 56 years with Stages II-III chronic alcoholism were examined. All the patients underwent a thorough clinical, X-ray, and instrumental studies which provided the possibility to exclude coronary artery and valve diseases. Two-dimensional echocardiography revealed that chronic alcoholics had profound ventricular dysfunctions. The abnormalities in the right ventricle (its dilation and reduced ejection fraction) occur earlier than in the left one and they become deteriorated with lower left ventricular contractility. |
