Left ventricular echogenic spot is clinically known as left ventricular echogenic spot, which can be caused by physiological factors or pathologic factors such as mitral valve calcification, left ventricular wall thrombus, etc. The main treatments include general treatment, medication and surgery.
1. Physiological factors: Fetus is not yet fully developed, intraventricular tendon thickening, ultrasound will find the left ventricle strong echo point, with the growth and development, the strong echo point will gradually disappear, generally belong to the normal physiological phenomenon. Pregnant women should have a reasonable diet, appropriate exercise, strengthen the nutrition, and regular review.
2. Calcification of the mitral valve: With age, the structure and function of the mitral valve deteriorates, and the valve membrane becomes fibrotic, with calcium deposits and calcification of the valve, and ultrasound will find strong echoes in the left ventricle. Pay attention to rest, avoid exertion, can follow the doctor’s instructions to take aspirin, atorvastatin calcium tablets and other drugs. If severe mitral regurgitation or cardiac insufficiency occurs, surgery is needed.
3. Left ventricular wall thrombus: multiple causes of left ventricular wall thrombosis, ultrasound will find the left ventricle strong echo point. Attention to rest, can follow the doctor’s instructions to take warfarin, aspirin and other drugs. If there is no contraindication to surgery, early surgery is needed to avoid the danger of cerebral infarction and pulmonary embolism.
Left ventricular strong echogenic point need to seek medical treatment in time, under the guidance of the doctor examination and treatment.
