ABSTRACT

This article deals with the detection of the left ventricular band by 2-dimensional echocardiography in 102 cases.The nomenclature of the band and its detection rate,diagnosis and differential diagnosis were discussed.The mechanism of the ventricular premature beat and systolic murmur in the cardiac apical region,and their clinical significance were also dis- cussed.This article shows that this band is usually regarded as an anatomic feature.It does not relate to any cardiac diseases.The premature beat and murmur caused by the band belong in benign premature beat or physiologic murmur.
