Congenital agenesis of the right lobe of liver is a rare anomaly and only 33 cases have been reported. CT showed absence of the right lobe of liver and compensatory hypertrophy of the other lobe. We report the CT findings of a new case of this anomaly with a review of the literatures.

Authors evaluated the electrocardiographic criteria of Minnesota Code (III-1, III-2) for the diagnosis of left and right ventricular hypertrophy in 93 cases of healthy peoples, 74 cases of left ventricular hypertrophy and 4 cases of right ventricular hypertrophy and following results were obtained. 1. By left ventricular hypertropy criteria (III-1), there were 5.4% of false positive and 14.9% of false negative cases. 2. By right ventricular hypertrophy criteria III-2), there were 24.7% of false positive and 20.0% of false negative cases. 3. Electrocardiographic diagnosis of ventricular hypertrophy by Minnesota Code (III-1, III-2) were more reliable criteria than many other criteria of ventricular hypertrophy.

The number of people identified as having Hypertension continues to increase and most of them have left ventricular hypertrophy- an earliest complication and also being a risk factor of heart disease. In clinical practice in Cardiovascular Department- Hue Central Hospital, until now, diagnosis LVH depends on ECG so it misses many cases as having a real LVH. This is the first time, we use Echocardiography to diagnose LVH in patients with Hypertension by using LVMI. In 56 cases of hypertension we found a larger number of LVH by using LVMI than by ECG (41cases Vs 22cases- p<0,01). This is an useful method in diagnosis for LVH.

Background: Left Ventricular Hypertrophy (LVH) has been shown to be a risk factor as well as a consequence of cardiovascular diseases. The importance of an early LVH diagnosis in the community has been desmontrated by many case studies. Objectives: (1) Find out the prevalence of electrocardiographic LVH. (2) Determine the risk factors of electrocardiographic LVH. Subjects and method: 3561 people (1410 men) over 25 years old were chosen from 3 provinces/cities (Ha Noi, Thai Binh, and Nghe An). All participants underwent electrocardiogram, and the Romhilt-Estes score on standard 12-lead electrocardiogram to measure LVH. Diagnosis of LVH was made when Romhilt-Estes score >=4. Data was analyzed by Epi-Info software version 6.04 and SPSS version 13.0. Results: According to JNC 7, there were 744 people with hypertension (352 men), accounted for 21.2%. The rate of hypertension was 24.9% in men and 18.2% in women. This difference was statistically significant (p <0.001). Overall prevalence of electrocardiographic LVH was 6.71% (95% CI: 5.94 \u2013 7.58%). Prevalence was 9.00% among men (95% CI: 7.62 \u2013 10.61%) and 5.21% in women (95% CI: 4.35 \u2013 6.23%). Risk factors of electrocardiographic LVH included male, elderly, hypertension, and obesity. Conclusion: The high prevalence of LVH in the population showed the importance of detection and early treatment for LVH patients, especially in those, who had no clinical symptoms.
