Multimodality assessment of left ventricular dysfunction in Takayasu arteritis and familial hypercholesterolaemia. (31st July 2017) - Okada, Atsushi
Abstract: Although left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction in patients suffering from Takayasu arteritis (TA) has been reported, little is known regarding the development of heart failure in these patients. We report a novel finding of active TA and familial hypercholesterolaemia presenting with severe LV dysfunction through multimodality assessments of LV systolic dysfunction.
