Chronic right ventricular failure in a patient with diffuse toxic goiter and alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver: case description
https://doi.org/10.18087/cardio.2650
Abstract
We present a case of a patient with pronounced edematous‑ascitic syndrome. Initially, its causes were considered to be alcoholic cardiomyopathy (right ventricular failure) with heart rhythm disturbances and liver cirrhosis. Targeted treatment had a low clinical effect, which served as a basis for revising the diagnostic concept. Subsequent follow‑up revealed a diffuse toxic goiter with the predominant right ventricular lesion. Achieving euthyroidism has led to a significant improvement in the patient's condition.
