In order to demonstrate the presence of postischemic ventricular dysfunction after non-cardiac surgical procedures, myocardial perfusion scintigraphy with thallium 201 and radionuclide ventriculography were performed before and 24 h after intervention in 20 patients suffering from angina pectoris. A long-term ECG recording was used in all patients to detect peroperative myocardial ischemia. In 14 of the 20 patients studied, both ventriculography and thallium scintigraphy were unchanged at the postoperative study. Comparison of pre- and postoperative radionuclide data revealed an increased deficit in one patient, both increased deficit and decreased ejection fraction in four others and a decreased ejection fraction in one other. In these five last patients, continuous ECG recording demonstrated the occurrence of peroperative ST segment depression. These results underline the part played by prolonged peroperative episodes of myocardial ischemia in the occurrence of postoperative left ventricular dysfunction.

D011877 Radionuclide Imaging The production of an image obtained by cameras that detect the radioactive emissions of an injected radionuclide as it has distributed differentially throughout tissues in the body. The image obtained from a moving detector is called a scan, while the image obtained from a stationary camera device is called a scintiphotograph.

D003327 Coronary Disease An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.
