Correlation between RVOT sizing and RV function and volumes in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot undergoing routine CMR follow-up: is there a better candidate for percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation?
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background CMR is the established non-invasive tool for routine RV functional and morphological assessment in repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) patients. 3D anatomical data of the RVOT are routinely performed to better address indications for Pulmonary Valve Replacement (PVR), either surgical or percutaneous. The aim of this crosssectional analysis is to improve the ability of CMR to identify patients suitable for percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI).

Introduction: In patients who underwent surgery to repair Tetralogy of Fallot, right ventricular dilation from pulmonary regurgitation may be result in right ventricular failure, arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Hence, pulmonary valve replacement may be necessary to reduce right ventricular volume overload. The aim of present study was to assess the effects of pulmonary valve replacement on rig...

BACKGROUND The underlying mechanisms that contribute to global right ventricular (RV) dysfunction in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot are incompletely understood. We therefore sought to quantify regional RV abnormalities and to determine the relationship of these to global RV function and exercise capacity. METHODS AND RESULTS Clinical and cardiac magnetic resonance data from 62 con...

BACKGROUND Patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot are monitored for pulmonary regurgitation (PR) and right ventricular (RV) function. We sought to compare measures of PR and RV function on echocardiogram to those on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and to develop a new tool for assessing PR by echocardiogram. METHODS AND RESULTS Patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (n=143; 12.5±3.2 ...
