An Atlas of Congenital Anomalies of the Heart and Great Vessels presents a pictorial outline of congenital defects of the heart and great vessels selected from the records of the Mayo Clinic. In most instances brief clinical resumes, radiographic, and electrocardiographic data are also included. In rarer instances certain physiological information available from right heart catheterization and dye-dilution technics is also presented. The preface deservedly gives credit to the photographic and art staffs of the Mayo Clinic and Foundation, since their contribution is primarily responsible for making this volume unique and valuable.

SummaryIn patients with acquired and congenital valvular heart disease correlations of the parameters of the radiocardiographic curve (filling time of the right heart, minimal pulmonary transit time, peak-to-peak pulmonary transit time, and the so-called filling time of the left heart) with the mean pulmonary artery pressure and the mean pulmonary “capillary” pressure were studied. Further, a regression equation was determined by means of which the mean pulmonary “capillary” pressure can be predicted.

Heart Size

Various parameters reflecting right heart size, right ventricular function and capacitance have been shown to be prognostically important in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH). In the advanced disease, patients suffer from right heart failure, which is a main reason for an impaired prognosis. Right heart size has shown to be associated with right ventricular function and reserve and is correlated with prognosis in patients with PH. Right ventricular reserve, defined as the ability of the ventricle to adjust to exercise or pharmacologic stress, is expressed by various parameters, which may be determined invasively by right heart catheterization or by stress-Doppler-echocardiography as a noninvasive approach. As the term “right ventricular contractile reserve” may be misleading, “right ventricular output reserve” seems desirable as a preferred term of increase in cardiac output during exercise. Both right heart size and right ventricular reserve have been shown to be of prognostic importance and may therefore be useful for risk assessment in patients with pulmonary hypertension. In this article we aim to display different aspects of right heart size and right ventricular reserve and their prognostic role in PH.
