We encountered an infant with congestive heart failure due to idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome. The patient showed marked thickening of the left ventricular wall and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, both of which, shortly after prednisolone therapy, markedly improved together with improvement of the congestive heart failure and hypereosinophilia. Observation of pulmonary venous flow patterns detected by pulsed Doppler echocardiography may be useful for evaluation of left ventricular diastolic function.
我们遇到一名因特发性嗜酸性粒细胞增多综合征导致充血性心力衰竭的婴儿。该患者表现出左心室壁明显增厚和左心室舒张功能障碍,在泼尼松龙治疗后不久,这两者均随着充血性心力衰竭和嗜酸性粒细胞增多的改善而显著改善。通过脉冲多普勒超声心动图检测观察肺静脉血流模式可能有助于评估左心室舒张功能。
