    (2015) SCANAVACCA, Mauricio Ibrahim; STERNICK, Eduardo Back; PISANI, Cristiano; LARA, Sissy; HARDY, Carina; D'AVILA, Andre; CORREA, Frederico Soares; DARRIEUX, Francisco; HACHUL, Denise; MARCIAL, Miguel Barbero; SOSA, Eduardo A.
    Background-Epicardial mapping and ablation of accessory pathways through a subxiphoid approach can be an alternative when endocardial or epicardial transvenous mapping has failed. Methods and Results-We reviewed acute and long-term follow-up of 21 patients (14 males) referred for percutaneous epicardial accessory pathway ablation. There was a median of 2 previous failed procedures. All patients were highly symptomatic, 8 had atrial fibrillation (3 with cardiac arrest) and 13 had frequent symptomatic episodes of atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia. Six patients (28.5%) had a successful epicardial ablation. Five patients (23.8%) underwent a successful repeated endocardial mapping, and ablation after epicardial mapping yielded no early activation site. Epicardial mapping was helpful in guiding endocardial ablation in 2 patients (9.5%), showing that the earliest activation was simultaneous at the epicardium and endocardium. Four patients (19%) underwent successful open-chest surgery after failing epicardial/endocardial ablation. Two patients (9.5%) remained controlled under antiarrhythmic drugs after unsuccessful endocardial/epicardial ablation. Two patients had a coronary sinus diverticulum and one a right atrium to right ventricle diverticulum. Three patients acquired postablation coronary sinus stenosis. There was no major complication related to pericardial access. Conclusions-Percutaneous epicardial approach is an alternative when conventional endocardial or transvenous epicardial ablation fails in the elimination of the accessory pathway. A new attempt by endocardial approach was successful in a significant number of patients. Open-chest surgery may be required in symptomatic cases refractory to endocardial-epicardial approach.

    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 Costa
    Aim 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.

    Detection of Early Diffuse Myocardial Fibrosis and Inflammation in Chagas Cardiomyopathy with T1 Mapping and Extracellular Volume
    (2023) MELO, Rodrigo J. L.; ASSUNCAO, Antonildes N.; MORAIS, Thamara C.; NOMURA, Cesar H.; SCANAVACCA, Mauricio I.; MARTINELLI-FILHO, Martino; RAMIRES, Felix J. A.; FERNANDES, Fabio; IANNI, Barbara M.; MADY, Charles; ROCHITTE, Carlos E.
    Purpose: To evaluate myocardial T1 mapping and extracellular volume (ECV) parameters in different stages of Chagas cardiomyopathy and determine whether they are predictive of disease severity and prognosis.Materials and Methods: Prospectively enrolled participants (July 2013 to September 2016) underwent cine and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiac MRI and T1 mapping with a precontrast (native) or postcontrast modified Look-Locker sequence. The native T1 and ECV values were measured among subgroups that were based on disease severity (indeterminate, Chagas cardiomyopathy with preserved ejection fraction [CCpEF], Chagas cardiomyopathy with midrange ejection fraction [CCmrEF], and Chagas cardiomyopathy with reduced ejection fraction [CCrEF]). Cox proportional hazards regression and the Akaike information criterion were used to determine predictors of major cardiovascular events (cardioverter defibrillator implant, heart transplant, or death).Results: In 107 participants (90 participants with Chagas disease [mean age & PLUSMN; SD, 55 years & PLUSMN; 11; 49 men] and 17 age-and sex matched control participants), the left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction and the extent of focal and diffuse or interstitial fibrosis were correlated with disease severity. Participants with CCmrEF and participants with CCrEF showed significantly higher global native T1 and ECV values than participants in the indeterminate, CCpEF, and control groups (T1: 1072 msec & PLUSMN; 34 and 1073 msec & PLUSMN; 63 vs 1010 msec & PLUSMN; 41, 1005 msec & PLUSMN; 69, and 999 msec & PLUSMN; 46; ECV: 35.5% & PLUSMN; 3.6 and 35.0% & PLUSMN; 5.4 vs 25.3% & PLUSMN; 3.5, 28.2% & PLUSMN; 4.9, and 25.2% & PLUSMN; 2.2; both P < .001). Remote (LGE-negative areas) native T1 and ECV values were also higher (T1: 1056 msec & PLUSMN; 32 and 1071 msec & PLUSMN; 55 vs 1008 msec & PLUSMN; 41, 989 msec & PLUSMN; 96, and 999 msec & PLUSMN; 46; ECV: 30.2% & PLUSMN; 4.7 and 30.8% & PLUSMN; 7.4 vs 25.1% & PLUSMN; 3.5, 25.1% & PLUSMN; 3.7, and 25.0% & PLUSMN; 2.2; both P < .001). Abnormal remote ECV values (>30%) occurred in 12% of participants in the indeterminate group, which increased with disease severity. Nineteen combined outcomes were observed (median follow-up time: 43 months), and a remote native T1 value greater than 1100 msec was independently predictive of combined outcomes (hazard ratio, 12 [95% CI: 4.1, 34.2]; P < .001).Conclusion: Myocardial native T1 and ECV values were correlated with Chagas disease severity and may serve as markers of myocardial involvement in Chagas cardiomyopathy that precede LGE and LV dysfunction.

    Age is associated with time in therapeutic range for warfarin therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation
    (2016) MARCATTO, Leiliane Rodrigues; SACILOTTO, Luciana; DARRIEUX, Francisco Carlos da Costa; HACHUL, Denise Tessariol; SCANAVACCA, Mauricio Ibrahim; KRIEGER, Jose Eduardo; PEREIRA, Alexandre Costa; SANTOS, Paulo Caleb Junior Lima
    Background: Warfarin is the most prescribed oral anticoagulant used for preventing stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation. Time in the therapeutic range (TTR) has been accepted as the best method to evaluate the quality of warfarin therapy. The main aim of the present study was to evaluate the impact of variables on the time in the therapeutic range for warfarin therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation from a referral cardiovascular hospital. Methods: This retrospective study included 443 patients were included (190 patients with age < 65 years and 253 patients with age >= 65 years) from 2011 to 2014 and TTR was computed according to Rosendaal's method. Results: Patients with age >= 65 years had higher TTR value (67+/-22%) compared with patients with < 65 years (60+/-24%) (p = 0.004). In a linear regression model, only age >= 65 years emerged as a significant predictor of greater TTR values. In multivariate logistic regression model, the variable age = 65 years was associated with higher OR for having a TTR higher than the median value (OR = 2.17, p < 0.001). Conclusion: We suggest that the age influenced TTR through greater drug adherence. Strategies for increasing drug adherence might improve quality of warfarin anticoagulation.

    Bradyarrhythmia in a marathonist: Cardiac vagal denervation as alternative treatment
    (2023) NETO, Micaela; CAVACO, Diogo; LOVATTO, Carlos; COSTA, Francisco; CARMO, Pedro; MORGADO, Francisco; SCANAVACCA, Mauricio; ADRAGAO, Pedro
    Although not routinely used, cardioneuroablation or modulation of the cardiac autonomic nervous system has been proposed as an alternative approach to treat young individuals with enhanced vagal tone and significant atrioventricular (AV) disturbances. We report the case of a 42-year-old athlete with prolonged ventricular pauses associated with sinus bradycardia and paroxysmal episodes of AV block (maximum of 6.6 s) due to enhanced vagal tone who was admitted to our hospital for pacemaker implantation. Cardiac magnetic resonance and stress test were normal. Although he was asymptomatic, safety concerns regarding possible neurological damage and sudden cardiac death were raised, and he accordingly underwent electrophysiological study (EPS) and cardiac autonomic denervation. Mapping and ablation were anatomically guided and radiofrequency pulses were delivered at empirical sites of ganglionated plexi. Modulation of the parasympathetic system was confirmed through changes in heart rate and AV nodal conduction properties associated with a negative cardiac response to atropine administration. After a follow-up of nine months, follow-up 24-hour Holter revealed an increase in mean heart rate and no AV disturbances, with rare non-significant ventricular pauses, suggesting that this technique may become a safe and efficient procedure in this group of patients.
