The phenomenon of left atrial hypertrophy may be caused by mitral stenosis, hypertension or left atrial mucinous tumor, etc. Different treatment measures should be taken according to the different causes, such as medication and surgical treatment.
1. Mitral stenosis: because of mitral stenosis, the heart can not be fully opened in diastole, thus restricting the blood flow from the left atrium to the left ventricle, making the pressure of the left atrium increase, which leads to the phenomenon of left atrial hypertrophy, which can be treated with medicines such as benzylpenicillin according to doctor’s instructions.
2. Hypertension: due to the body’s long-term high pressure and lead to increased left ventricular load, causing left ventricular muscle hypertrophy, left ventricular pressure increases, which can cause left atrial hypertrophy, can be prescribed to take Irbesartan and other drugs.
3. Left atrial mucinous tumor: a kind of benign tumor originated from the endocardium of the left atrium, which can also lead to the phenomenon of left atrial hypertrophy, and the symptoms can be relieved by left atrial mucinous tumor resection.
If you are experiencing any of the above problems and are experiencing discomfort, it is recommended that you go to the hospital in a timely manner and actively cooperate with your doctor for treatment, and follow the doctor’s instructions for medication.
