Atrial Remodeling After the Fontan Operation. Introduction: The prevalence of intra‐atrial reentrant tachycardia (IART) increases with age in Fontan patients. This study aimed to characterize the atrial electroanatomic substrate for IART late after Fontan surgery. Methods and Results: Detailed electroanatomic mapping of the right atrium (RA) was performed in 11 consecutive patients (33 ± 9 years) with older style Fontan circulation (atriopulmonary and atrioventricular connection) who underwent their first radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) for IART. A comparative group of 30 non‐Fontan congenital heart disease (CHD) patients were also studied. Fontan patients had larger RA (P = 0.004), larger low‐voltage area ≤0.5 mV (P = 0.01), and more fractionated potentials (P < 0.001) than non‐Fontan CHD patients. RA enlargement correlated significantly with both low‐voltage zones (Spearman ρ= 0.68, P < 0.001) and fractionated potentials (Spearman ρ= 0.48, P = 0.001). Among Fontan patients, both age and time since Fontan surgery were significantly correlated to the amount of low‐voltage areas (Spearman ρ= 0.87, P < 0.001; Spearman ρ= 0.63, P = 0.04, respectively). Successful RFCA was accomplished in 30 (73%) patients and was less likely in Fontan patients (54% vs 83%, P = 0.04). Larger RA was significantly associated with a lower success rate (P = 0.04). During a follow‐up duration of 2.3 ± 1.6 years, IART recurred in 47% of patients. Larger RA size and larger low‐voltage areas predicted IART recurrence after RFCA. Conclusion: Fontan patients demonstrate progressive adverse atrial electrical remodeling with increasing age and time since surgery. Newer strategies beyond surgical incisions, such as pharmacotherapies that retard the progression of atrial fibrosis, may be required to reduce the long‐term risk of atrial arrhythmias. 相似文献

Aortic stenosis at young adult age is usually the result of a stenotic bicuspid aortic valve, which is the most common cardiac congenital anomaly. In clinical practice, exercise and pregnancy are important topics. Furthermore, the timing of intervention is under debate, as little information is available on the natural history and outcome after aortic valve replacement in these young adults. In older patients, there is a trend towards earlier intervention. With the increased knowledge of the pathophysiology of aortic stenosis, studies have focused on the dilatation of the ascending aorta with risk of dissection. Recently, it has been suggested that pharmacologic treatment of aortic stenosis could be beneficial for these young adults. 相似文献
