    Transcatheter Valve-in-Valve Procedures for Bioprosthetic Valve Dysfunction in Patients With Rheumatic vs. Non-Rheumatic Valvular Heart Disease
    (2021) LOPES, Mariana Pezzute; ROSA, Vitor Emer Egypto; PALMA, Jose Honorio; VIEIRA, Marcelo Luiz Campos; FERNANDES, Joao Ricardo Cordeiro; SANTIS, Antonio de; SPINA, Guilherme Sobreira; FONSECA, Rafael de Jesus; MARCHI, Mauricio F. de Sa; ABIZAID, Alexandre; BRITO, Fabio Sandoli de; TARASOUTCHI, Flavio; SAMPAIO, Roney Orismar; RIBEIRO, Henrique Barbosa
    Background: Bioprosthetic heart valve has limited durability and lower long-term performance especially in rheumatic heart disease (RHD) patients that are often subject to multiple redo operations. Minimally invasive procedures, such as transcatheter valve-in-valve (ViV) implantation, may offer an attractive alternative, although data is lacking. The aim of this study was to evaluate the baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes in rheumatic vs. non-rheumatic patients undergoing ViV procedures for severe bioprosthetic valve dysfunction. Methods: Single center, prospective study, including consecutive patients undergoing transcatheter ViV implantation in aortic, mitral and tricuspid position, from May 2015 to September 2020. RHD was defined according to clinical history, previous echocardiographic and surgical findings. Results: Among 106 patients included, 69 had rheumatic etiology and 37 were non-rheumatic. Rheumatic patients had higher incidence of female sex (73.9 vs. 43.2%, respectively; p = 0.004), atrial fibrillation (82.6 vs. 45.9%, respectively; p < 0.001), and 2 or more prior surgeries (68.1 vs. 32.4%, respectively; p = 0.001). Although, device success was similar between groups (75.4 vs. 89.2% in rheumatic vs. non-rheumatic, respectively; p = 0.148), there was a trend toward higher 30-day mortality rates in the rheumatic patients (21.7 vs. 5.4%, respectively; p = 0.057). Still, at median followup of 20.7 [5.1-30.4] months, cumulative mortality was similar between both groups (p = 0.779). Conclusion: Transcatheter ViV implantation is an acceptable alternative to redo operations in the treatment of patients with RHD and severe bioprosthetic valve dysfunction. Despite similar device success rates, rheumatic patients present higher 30 day mortality rates with good mid-term clinical outcomes. Future studies with a larger number of patients and follow-up are still warranted, to firmly conclude on the role transcatheter ViV procedures in the RHD population.

    (2023) LOPES, Maria Antonieta Albanez A. de M.; CAMPOS, Carlos M.; ROSA, Vitor Emer Egypto; SAMPAIO, Roney O.; MORAIS, Thamara C.; BRITO JUNIOR, Fabio Sandoli de; VIEIRA, Marcelo L. C.; JR, Wilson Mathias; FERNANDES, Joao Ricardo Cordeiro; SANTIS, Antonio de; SANTOS, Luciano de Moura; ROCHITTE, Carlos E.; CAPODANNO, Davide; TAMBURINO, Corrado; ABIZAID, Alexandre; TARASOUTCHI, Flavio
    ObjectivesThe aim of the present study is to assess multimodality imaging findings according to systemic biomarkers, high-sensitivity troponin I (hsTnI) and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels, in low-flow, low-gradient aortic stenosis (LFLG-AS).BackgroundElevated levels of BNP and hsTnI have been related with poor prognosis in patients with LFLG-AS.MethodsProspective study with LFLG-AS patients that underwent hsTnI, BNP, coronary angiography, cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) with T1 mapping, echocardiogram and dobutamine stress echocardiogram. Patients were divided into 3 groups according to BNP and hsTnI levels: Group 1 (n = 17) when BNP and hsTnI levels were below median [BNP < 1.98 fold upper reference limit (URL) and hsTnI < 1.8 fold URL]; Group 2 (n = 14) when BNP or hsTnI were higher than median; and Group 3 (n = 18) when both hsTnI and BNP were higher than median.Results49 patients included in 3 groups. Clinical characteristics (including risk scores) were similar among groups. Group 3 patients had lower valvuloarterial impedance (P = 0.03) and lower left ventricular ejection fraction (P = 0.02) by echocardiogram. CMR identified a progressive increase of right and left ventricular chamber from Group 1 to Group 3, and worsening of left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) (40 [31-47] vs. 32 [29-41] vs. 26 [19-33]%; p < 0.01) and right ventricular EF (62 [53-69] vs. 51 [35-63] vs. 30 [24-46]%; p < 0.01). Besides, there was a marked increase in myocardial fibrosis assessed by extracellular volume fraction (ECV) (28.4 [24.8-30.7] vs. 28.2 [26.9-34.5] vs. 31.8 [28.9-35.5]%; p = 0.03) and indexed ECV (iECV) (28.7 [21.2-39.1] vs. 28.8 [25.4-39.9] vs. 44.2 [36.4-51.2] ml/m(2), respectively; p < 0.01) from Group 1 to Group 3.ConclusionsHigher levels of BNP and hsTnI in LFLG-AS patients are associated with worse multi-modality evidence of cardiac remodeling and fibrosis.

    Postoperative myocardial fibrosis assessment in aortic valvular heart diseases-a cardiovascular magnetic resonance study
    (2023) PIRES, Lucas T.; ROSA, Vitor E. E.; MORAIS, Thamara C.; BELLO, Juliana H. S. M.; FERNANDES, Joao R. C.; SANTIS, Antonio de; LOPES, Mariana P.; GUTIERREZ, Paulo S.; ROCHITTE, Carlos E.; NOMURA, Cesar H.; POMERANTZEFF, Pablo M. A.; SAMPAIO, Roney O.; TARASOUTCHI, Flavio
    Aims Left ventricular remodelling occurs during the chronic course of aortic regurgitation (AR) and aortic stenosis (AS), leading to myocardial hypertrophy and fibrosis. Several studies have shown that extracellular volume fraction (ECV) and indexed extracellular volume (iECV) are important surrogate markers of diffuse myocardial fibrosis (MF). Postoperative data on these cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) extracellular expansion parameters for either AS or AR are scarce. This study aimed to demonstrate the postoperative changes that occur in diffuse MF, and the influence of preoperative MF on the reversal of LV remodelling, in patients with AR or AS. Methods and results Patients with severe AR or AS and indications for surgery were prospectively enrolled. Patients underwent pre- and postoperative CMR, and ECV and iECV were quantified. Data from 99 patients were analysed (32 with AR and 67 with AS). After surgery, the left ventricle mass index decreased in both groups (AR: 110 vs. 91 g/m(2); AS: 86 vs. 68 g/m(2), both P < 0.001). The late gadolinium enhancement fraction (AR: preoperative 1.9% vs. postoperative 1.7%, P = 0.575; AS: preoperative 2.4% vs. postoperative 2.4%, P = 0.615) and late gadolinium enhancement mass (AR: preoperative 3.8 g vs. postoperative 2.5 g, P = 0.635; AS: preoperative 3.4 g vs. postoperative 3.5 g, P = 0.575) remained stable in both groups. Preoperative iECV and ECV were greater in the AR group (iECV: 30 mL/m(2) vs. 22 mL/m(2), P = 0.001; ECV: 28.4% vs. 27.2%, P = 0.048). Indexed extracellular volume decreased after surgery in both groups (AR: 30-26.5 mL/m(2), AS: 22-18.2 mL/m(2), both P < 0.001); it was still greater in the AR group (AR: 26.5 mL/m(2) vs. AS: 18.2 mL/m(2), P < 0.001). Postoperative ECV remained stable in the AR group (preoperative 28.4% vs. postoperative 29.9%; P = 0.617) and increased in the AS group (preoperative 27.2% vs. postoperative 28.6%; P = 0.033). Conclusion Patients with both AR or AS presented reduction in iECV after surgery, unfolding the reversible nature of diffuse MF. In contrast to patients with AS, those with AR developed postoperative iECV regression with stable ECV, suggesting a balanced reduction in both intracellular and extracellular myocardial components.

    Rheumatic Myocarditis: A Poorly Recognized Etiology of Left Ventricular Dysfunction in Valvular Heart Disease Patients
    (2021) ROSA, Vitor Emer Egypto; LOPES, Mariana Pezzute; SPINA, Guilherme Sobreira; SOARES JUNIOR, Jose; SALAZAR, David; ROMERO, Cristhian Espinoza; LOTTENBERG, Marcos Pita; SANTIS, Antonio de; PIRES, Lucas Jose Neves Tachotti; GONCALVES, Luis Fernando Tonello; FERNANDES, Joao Ricardo Cordeiro; SAMPAIO, Roney Orismar; TARASOUTCHI, Flavio
    Background: Heart failure occurs in similar to 10% of patients with acute rheumatic fever (RF), and several studies have shown that cardiac decompensation in RF results primarily from valvular disease and is not due to primary myocarditis. However, the literature on this topic is scarce, and a recent case series has shown that recurrent RF can cause ventricular dysfunction even in the absence of valvular heart disease. Methods: The present study evaluated the clinical, laboratory and imaging characteristics of 25 consecutive patients with a clinical diagnosis of myocarditis confirmed by 18F-FDG PET/CT or gallium-67 cardiac scintigraphy and RF reactivation according to the revised Jones Criteria. Patients underwent three sequential echocardiograms at (1) baseline, (2) during myocarditis and (3) post corticosteroid treatment. Patients were divided according to the presence (Group 1) or absence (Group 2) of reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) during myocarditis episodes. Results: The median age was 42 (17-51) years, 64% of patients were older than 40 years, and 64% were women. Between Group 1 (n = 16) and in Group 2 (n = 9), there were no demographic, echocardiographic or laboratory differences except for NYHA III/IV heart failure (Group 1: 100.0% vs. Group 2: 50.0%; p = 0.012) and LVEF (30 [25-37] vs. 56 [49-62]%, respectively; p < 0.001), as expected. Group 1 patients showed a significant reduction in LVEF during carditis with further improvement after treatment. There was no correlation between LVEF and valvular dysfunction during myocarditis. Among all patients, 19 (76%) underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT, with a positive scan in 68.4%, and 21 (84%) underwent gallium-67 cardiac scintigraphy, with positive uptake in 95.2%, there was no difference between these groups. Conclusion: Myocarditis due to rheumatic fever reactivation can cause left ventricular dysfunction despite valvular disease, and it is reversible after corticosteroid treatment.
