Question....regarding PACs or PVCs

Hello again...
I was wondering if the continues appear of PACs and PVCs can cause "enllargement heart structure"? Please, if anyone knows if PACs can cause any strucrural changes on otherwise normal heart?

I would appreciate it

Please don't consider my input as authoritative or final, you may want to discuss with your doctor on your next regular visit.

I do not believe PAC or PVC will cause heart enlargement. The only causes I am aware of are high blood pressure and valve leakage, and in the latter case it causes the atrial chamber to stretch - which on the left side (the mitral valve) can cause atrial fibrillation and flutter.
