The relationship between extracellular volume fraction in symptomatic adults with tetralogy of Fallot and adverse cardiac events

Abstract: The most common long-term complication in postoperative tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is pulmonary regurgitation (PR) [1]. PR is primarily the result of transannular patching and it leads to progressive right ventricular (RV) enlargement, dysfunction, and eventual right heart failure [1]. Myocardial impairment also provokes ventricular arrhythmias [2]; however, it is still unknown whether late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) can be a predictor of all cardiovascular events, becau… Show more

“…Consistent with previous reports, patients with right ventricular myocardial injury had elevated right ventricular myocardial T1 values [13][14]. The right ventricular myocardial T1 value is known to be elevated in patients with pulmonary hypertension and after surgery for tetralogy of Fallot.…”

“…The right ventricular myocardial T1 value is known to be elevated in patients with pulmonary hypertension and after surgery for tetralogy of Fallot. But, in previous reports, the right ventricular myocardial T1 value was evaluated during diastole [13][14]. The validity of the diastolic right ventricular myocardial T1 value has been cited as a limitation in all the previous reports.…”
