Right ventricular hypertrophy : ウィキペディア英語版 | Right ventricular hypertrophy
Right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH) is a form of ventricular hypertrophy affecting the right ventricle. Blood travels through the right ventricle to the lungs via the pulmonary arteries. If conditions occur which decrease pulmonary circulation, meaning blood does not flow well from the heart to the lungs, extra stress can be placed on the right ventricle. This can lead to right ventricular hypertrophy. It can affect ECG findings. An ECG with right ventricular hypertrophy may or may not show a right axis deviation on the graph. ==Causes== Common causes include: * Pulmonary hypertension * Tetralogy of Fallot * Pulmonary valve stenosis * Pulmonic regurgitation * Ventricular septal defect (VSD) * High altitude〔(Sect. 4, Ch. 7: Acclimatization to High Altitude )〕 * Cardiac fibrosis * Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) * Athletic heart syndrome
