[New methods in angiocardiographic diagnosis of arrhythmogenic dysplasia of the right ventricle].
Arrhythmogenic dysplasia of the right ventricle (ADRV) is a congenital pathology of the heart resulting in the appearance of ventricular tachycardia that considerably increases risk of sudden death in young people. Up to now, however, the diagnostic criteria of this pathology have not been completely developed. An original method was used to study specific features of the regional contractile function (RCF) of the right ventricle and its diagnostic potentials in ADRV. The regional contractility of one of the right ventricle sectors was proved to decrease more than twice which corresponds to localization of additional conductive ways detected during the endo-electrophysiological examination of the heart. Changed indices of RCF should be referred to "great" angiographic criteria of diagnostics of ADRV.
