- Effects of anthracycline, cyclophosphamide and taxane chemotherapy on QTc measurements in patients with breast cancer(2018) VERONESE, Pedro; HACHUL, Denise Tessariol; SCANAVACCA, Mauricio Ibrahim; HAJJAR, Ludhmila Abrahao; WU, Tan Chen; SACILOTTO, Luciana; VERONESE, Carolina; DARRIEUX, Francisco Carlos da CostaAim Acute and subacute cardiotoxicity are characterized by prolongation of the corrected QT interval (QTc) and other measures derived from the QTc interval, such as QTc dispersion (QTdc) and transmural dispersion of repolarization (DTpTe). Although anthracyclines prolong the QTc interval, it is unclear whether breast cancer patients who undergo the ACT chemotherapy regimen of anthracycline (doxorubicin: A), cyclophosphamide (C) and taxane (T) may present with QTc, QTdc and DTpTe prolongation. Methods Twenty-three consecutive patients with breast cancer were followed prospectively during ACT chemotherapy and were analyzed according to their QT measurements. QTc, QTdc and DTpTe measurements were determined by a 12-lead electrocardiogram (EKG) prior to chemotherapy (baseline), immediately after the first phase of anthracycline and cyclophosphamide (AC) treatment, and immediately after T treatment. Serum troponin and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels were also measured. Results Compared to baseline values, the QTc interval was significantly prolonged after the AC phase (439.7 +/- 33.2 ms vs. 472.5 +/- 36.3 ms, p = 0.001) and after T treatment (439.7 +/- 33.2 ms vs. 467.9 +/- 42.6 ms, p < 0.001). Troponin levels were elevated after the AC phase (23.0 pg/mL [min-max: 6.0-85.0] vs. 6.0 pg/mL [min-max: 6.0-22.0], p < 0.001) and after T treatment (25.0 pg/mL [min-max: 6.0-80.0] vs. 6.0 pg/mL [min-max: 6.0-22.0], p < 0.001) compared to baseline values. Conclusion In this prospective study of patients with non-metastatic breast cancer who underwent ACT chemotherapy, significant QTc prolongation and an elevation in serum troponin levels were observed.

- Trombo Atrial Esquerdo e Contraste Espontaneo Denso no Uso de Anticoagulante Oral de Acao Direta em Fibrilacao Atrial: Visao de Centro Referenciado(2022) MARQUES, Thiago; DARRIEUX, Francisco; GOUVEA, Fabio; GARAMBONE, Leandro; LINDOSO, Ana Paula; LAGE, Joao; SACILOTTO, Luciana; COIMBRA, Ana Lucia; PINHEIRO, Martina; OLIVETTI, Natalia; LARA, Sissy; HARDY, Carina; ATHAYDE, Guilherme; HACHUL, Denise; PISANI, Cristiano; WU, Tan Chen; SCANAVACCA, MauricioBackground: In the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF), the most frequently sustained arrhythmia, with catheter ablation (CA) or electrical cardioversion (ECV), the periprocedural period is one of the most critical phases. Currently, the use of new direct action oral anticoagulants (DOAC) is increasingly frequent; however, in the real world, there are still few data on studies on the thrombus incidence in the left atrium (TrLA) or dense spontaneous contrast (DSC) on transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE). Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of events and association with risk factors in patients using DOACs. Primary objective: to analyze the prevalence of thrombus in the LA by TEE in patients using DOAC undergoing ECV/CA. Second, evaluate the association of comorbidities with the presence of thrombi and DSC. Methods: Retrospective cohort, single-center study with patients followed at the Arrhythmia Outpatient Unit (InCor-HCFMUSP). Patients indicated for procedures and using DOACs were selected, and their clinical/echocardiographic data were analyzed. A significance level of 5% was considered. Results: 354 patients were included, a total of 400 procedures, from March 2012-March 2018. Thrombus in the LA was found in 11 patients (2.8%), associated with advanced age (p=0.007) and higher CHA2DS2-VASc (p<0.001) score. DSC in the LA before TEE was found in 29 patients (7.3%), with lower LVEF (p<0.038) and greater LA dimension (p<0.0001). Conclusion: The incidence of LA thrombus and DSC in patients using DOC in the context of AF ECV/CA, although small, is not negligible. Patients with higher CHA2DS2-VASc scores, especially older and with larger LA diameter, are more prone to these echocardiographic findings.

D.bookPart Bradiarritmias(2022) TEIXEIRA, Amanda Ferino; LANDIM, Felipe Bringel; WU, Tan Chen- Efficacy and safety of combined endocardial/epicardial catheter ablation for ventricular tachycardia in Chagas disease: A randomized controlled study(2020) PISANI, Cristiano F.; ROMERO, Jorge; LARA, Sissy; HARDY, Carina; CHOKR, Muhieddine; SACILOTTO, Luciana; WU, Tan Chen; DARRIEUX, Francisco; HACHUL, Denise; KALIL-FILHO, Roberto; BIASE, Luigi Di; SCANAVACCA, MauricioBACKGROUND Epicardial mapping and ablation are frequently necessary to eliminate ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with Chagas disease. Nonetheless, there are no randomized controlled trials demonstrating the role of this strategy. OBJECTIVE We conducted this randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combined epicardial ablation in patients with Chagas disease. METHODS We randomized patients with Chagas disease and VT in a 1:1 fashion to either the endocardial (endo) mapping and ablation group or the combined endocardial/epicardial (endo/epi) mapping and ablation group. The efficacy end points were measured by VT inducibility and all-ventricular arrhythmia recurrence. Safety was assessed by the rate of periprocedural complications. RESULTS Thirty patients were enrolled, and most were male. The median age was 67 (Q1: 58; Q3: 70) years in the endo group and 58 (Q1: 43; Q3: 66) years in the endo/epi group. The left ventricular ejection fraction was 33.0% +/- 9.5% and 35.2% +/- 11.5%, respectively P = .13. Acute success (non-reinducibility of clinical VT) was obtained in 13 patients (86%) in the endo/epi group and in 6 patients (40%) in the endo-only group (P = .021). There were 12 patients with VT recurrence (80%) in the endo-only group and 6 patients (40%) in the endo/epi group (P = .02) (by intention-to-treat analysis). Epicardial ablation was ultimately per formed in 9 patients (60%) in the endo-only group because of an absence of endocardial scar or maintenance of VT inducibility. There was no difference in complications between the groups. CONCLUSION Combining endo/epi VT catheter ablation in patients with Chagas disease significantly increases shortand long-term freedom from all-ventricular arrhythmias. Epicardial access did not increase periprocedural complication rates.
