Abstract
Structural and functional changes of left ventricle in different types of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in essential hypertensive (EHTN) patients. 27 patients with eccentric left ventricular hypertrophy (ELVH), 24 patients with concentric left ventricular hypertrophy (CLVH) and 20 healthy persons as a control group were examined. Radionuclide ventriculography (RVG), echocardiography (Echo) and Exercise tolerance Test (ETT) were used for the detection of the functional and structural status of the myocardium. The thesis specifies the left ventricular function in dependence of type of LVH. Given new data about the compensation of pumping function of left ventricle in different types of LVH. CLVH is characterized by decrease in volume and early diastolic rate filling along with high pumping function. ELVH is characterized by maintenance of early diastolic filling indicies, which important for themaintenance of left ventricular pumping function through Franik starling mechanism.
