PG - 85-91 LID - S2211-5684(20)30154-6 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.diii.2020.05.008 [doi] AB - PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare ventricular vascular coupling ratio (VVCR) between patients with repaired standard tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) and those with repaired TOF-pulmonary atresia (TOF-PA) using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with repaired TOF aged>6 years were prospectively enrolled for same day CMR, echocardiography, and exercise stress test following a standardized protocol. Sanz's method was used to calculate VVCR as right ventricle (RV) end-systolic volume/pulmonary artery stroke volume. Regression analysis was used to examine associations with exercise test parameters, New York Heart Association (NYHA) class, RV size and biventricular systolic function. RESULTS: A total of 248 subjects were included; of these 222 had repaired TOF (group I, 129 males; mean age, 15.9+/-4.7 [SD] years [range: 8-29 years]) and 26 had repaired TOF-PA (group II, 14 males; mean age, 17.0+/-6.3 [SD] years [range: 8-29 years]). Mean VVCR for all subjects was 1.54+/-0.64 [SD] (range: 0.43-3.80). Mean VVCR was significantly greater in the TOF-PA group (1.81+/-0.75 [SD]; range: 0.78-3.20) than in the standard TOF group (1.51+/-0.72 [SD]; range: 0.43-3.80) (P=0.03). VVCR was greater in the 68 NYHA class II subjects (1.79+/-0.66 [SD]; range: 0.75-3.26) compared to the 179 NYHA class I subjects (1.46+/-0.61 [SD]; range: 0.43-3.80) (P<0.001). CONCLUSION: Non-invasive determination of VVCR using CMR is feasible in children and adolescents. VVCR showed association with NYHA class, and was worse in subjects with repaired TOF-PA compared to those with repaired standard TOF. VVCR shows promise as an indicator of pulmonary artery compliance and cardiovascular performance in this cohort. CI - Copyright (c) 2020 Societe francaise de radiologie.
