PVC's: It is not so much the PVC's are dangerous, but what is causing them. Right ventricle is lower pressure system and there is less stress on the system and the problems associated with right ventricle are typically from lung hypertension which is more of a fixed and controllable problem. Left ventricle higher pressures and more problems to go wrong so more stress and more likely bad PVC's
