摘要: Abstract The right ventricle was investigated by multiple biopsies and detailed echocardiographic evaluation, including measurement of cavity dimensions at the level inflow, body outflow tract, in 27 patients with ventricular tachycardia who had no clinical evidence an underlying morphologic abnormality. Nine (33%) abnormal biopsy results, a quantifiable increase interstitial fibrosis. Abnormal echocardiograms, defined as ≥2 or wall motion abnormalities both, were seen 9 patients. There strong association between myocardial histologies echocardiograms (p
