What causes left ventricular enlargement?

Left ventricular enlargement may be caused by hypertension, chronic myocardial ischemia, aortic valve stenosis and other factors.

1. Hypertension

patients due to long-term hypertension lead to increased aortic pressure, overload, resulting in left ventricular enlargement.

2. Chronic myocardial ischemia

patients due to long-term myocardial ischemia, resulting in myocardial contraction weakened or lost, resulting in left ventricular chamber dilation, resulting in left ventricular enlargement.

3. Aortic valve stenosis

patients due to aortic valve stenosis, resulting in left ventricular systolic blood ejection obstruction, resulting in left ventricular compensatory enlargement.
