Pulmonary Artery Pressure Ventricularization in a Patient With Carcinoid Heart Disease

Ventricularization of the pulmonary artery pressure curve is shown, characterized by a steep diastolic pressure fall with mid-diastolic pressure equalization with the right ventricle, which was caused by severe pulmonary valvular regurgitation in a patient with carcinoid heart syndrome. (Level of Di...

Sumario:Ventricularization of the pulmonary artery pressure curve is shown, characterized by a steep diastolic pressure fall with mid-diastolic pressure equalization with the right ventricle, which was caused by severe pulmonary valvular regurgitation in a patient with carcinoid heart syndrome.
