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.

A prospective study was conducted to evaluate and compare the results before and after using “Trinh nu hoang cung” capsules in 52 patients who had benign enlargement of prostate. Results: “Trinh nu hoang cung” capsules had effectiveness in the treating of urination disorders in patients with benign postage hypertrophy; with the rate of moderate and good results is 96.1%. The capsule had effect of clearing the urinary, reducing urination disorder, reducing the saving urine volume (from 11.86 ml to 4.3 ml). It did not cause any change in index of physiology, blood, biochemistry, or function of liver, kidney, circulation, blood, as well as did not have any side effect in digestive tract and central nervous system

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.

A study on the clinical, paraclinical and epidemiological features of 68 patients with hypertrophy simple goiter with complication in Hue hospital during 1996-1998 has shown that the disease occurred mainly in the women with ages of 31-50. The goiter accompanying with the nuclear accounted for high rate, especially multinuclear. The operation indicated for cases of goiter with pressing the neck region or with nuclear. The results of postoperative monitoring within 4 months found good (86,8%), normal (8,8%) and poor (4,4%).

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.

A study on 97 male patients with the hypertension ages of 64,1 +/- 14 in hospital 171 during 1993-5/1997 has shown that the hypertension was most frequently occurred in age of 60 (81,24%). The cardiac complications and large arterial complications in hypertension were common (67,01%) the cardiac complications include the left ventricular thickness (45,36% 45 cases with the left ventricular thickness were diagnosed by laparoscopy in which 30 cases with the centric thickness, 12 cases with the incentric thickness. The sensitivity and specificity of the eletrocardiography was 21/45 and 48/52, respectively. The frequent of the left ventricular thickness increased as increased age and its progress depends on the hypertension. The relation of the disorder of lipid metabolism and artherosclerosis exacerbated the hypertension and the left-ventricular thickness. The laparoscopy is valuable method diagnosis of the left ventricular thickness.
