Assessment of Left Ventricular Function using a Two-Dimensional Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Asymptomatic Survivors of Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in Long-Term Follow-Up
Introduction:Two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) is sensitive in the assessment of left ventricular (LV) systolic function and may aid in diagnosis of late cardiac effects in asymptomatic Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL) survivors in long-term follow-up.Methods:This is a cross-sectiona...

The average PR interval of the HL survivors was significantly longer (154.7±19.6 ms vs 133.8±13.9 ms, p<0.001) while the QTc interval was significantly shorter (383.8±18.7 ms vs 402.4±11.7 ms, p<0.001) than the control group.
