Abstract
Background: Identification of risk factors for biventricular (BiV) repair in children with hypoplastic left ventricles (HLV) has been challenging. We sought to identify preoperative cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) predictors of outcome in patients with HLVs who underwent BiV repair, with a focus on the mitral valve (MV).
Methods: Single-center retrospective analysis of preoperative CMRs on patients with HLV (≤50 mL/m2) and no endocardial fibroelastosis who underwent BiV repair from 2005-2022. CMR measurements included MV orifice area in diastole. The primary composite outcome included time to death, transplant, BiV takedown, heart failure admission, left atrial decompression, or unexpected reoperation; and the secondary outcome included more than or equal to moderate mitral stenosis and/or regurgitation.
Results: Median follow-up was 0.7 (interquartile range 0.1, 2.2) years. Of 122 patients [59 atrioventricular canal (AVC) and 63 non-AVC] age 3 ± 2.8 years at the time of BiV repair, freedom from the primary outcome at 2 years was 53% for AVC and 69% for non-AVC (log rank p = 0.12), and freedom from the secondary outcome at 2 years was 49% for AVC and 79% for non-AVC (log rank p < 0.01). Independent predictors of primary outcome for AVC patients included MV orifice area z-score <-2 and transitional AVC; for non-AVC patients, predictors included MV orifice area z-score <-2, abnormal MV anatomy, and conal-septal ventricular septal defect. Independent predictors of secondary outcome for AVC patients included older age at surgery, transitional AVC, and transposition of the great arteries.
Conclusion: In children with HLV, low MV orifice area and pre-existing MV pathology are risk factors for adverse outcome after BiV repair.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (JCMR) publishes high-quality articles on all aspects of basic, translational and clinical research on the design, development, manufacture, and evaluation of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) methods applied to the cardiovascular system. Topical areas include, but are not limited to:
New applications of magnetic resonance to improve the diagnostic strategies, risk stratification, characterization and management of diseases affecting the cardiovascular system.
New methods to enhance or accelerate image acquisition and data analysis.
Results of multicenter, or larger single-center studies that provide insight into the utility of CMR.
Basic biological perceptions derived by CMR methods.
