    Abstract:
    Hemodynamics and ventricular remodeling were studied echocardiographically in 192 men with heart failure (NYHA functional class I), arterial hypertension (AH) of stage I-III and clinical picture of ischemic heart disease (IHD). The latter presented in the patients with stable angina pectoris of FC I-II (SAP), unstable angina pectoris (UAP) without foci, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, acute myocardial infarction (MI), postinfarction cardiosclerosis (PC) with SAP or UAP. The control group consisted of 41 healthy men. The patients had AH stage 1. The patients and healthy controls differed significantly by the size of the aorta, left atrium, thickness of the interventricular septum and posterior wall of the left ventricle. There was a significant left-ventucular hypertrophy in the groups with patients with MI, SAP and PC, UAP and PC (p < 0.001). In these groups the type of left ventricular remodeling was characterized as excentric type of left ventricular hypertrophy without its delatation. Normal left ventricular geometry was in healthy men, SAP, UAP, paroxysmal actual fibrillation.
