Optimal assessment of right ventricular function using cardiac magnetic resonance cine imaging after Mustard palliation for transposition of the great arteries
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background The most common cause of a systemic right ventricle is atrial redirection surgery (Mustard repair) in the setting of complete TGA. Decreased RVEF is common and is a predictor of morbidity and mortality. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) cine imaging is the reference standard for assessment of right heart size and function. However, the optimal method of RV planimetry using CMR in patients with Mustard palliation for complete TGA remains unclear.

Background Patients with dextro-Transposition of the Great Arteries (d-TGA) who have undergone atrial switch palliation and patients with congenitally corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries (ccTGA) have systemic right ventricles which are prone to long term dysfunction and failure. Assessment of right ventricular function by echocardiography has been challenging because of anatomical loc...

Introduction: The correlation between right and left ventricular ejection fractions (RVEF and LVEF, respectively) has been studied in only a small number of patients with a marked decrease in RVEF and LVEF. The aim of the present study was to compare LVEF and RVEF in patients with ischemic heart disease. RVEF and LVEF were measured by Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) imaging. Materials a...

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...
