Colossal left ventricular apical thrombus.

Project description:Left ventricular apical thrombus is a known complication following an anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Although left ventriculography may suggest an apical thrombus in the presence of a filling defect, additional imaging with echocardiography and/or cardiac magnetic resonance is strongly recommended to further characterize the thrombus post myocardial infarction.

Artificial intelligence in detecting left atrial appendage thrombus by transthoracic echocardiography and clinical features: the Left Atrial Thrombus on Transoesophageal Echocardiography (LATTEE) registry.

Project description:AimsTransoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) is often performed before catheter ablation or cardioversion to rule out the presence of left atrial appendage thrombus (LAT) in patients on chronic oral anticoagulation (OAC), despite associated discomfort. A machine learning model [LAT-artificial intelligence (AI)] was developed to predict the presence of LAT based on clinical and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) features.Methods and resultsData from a 13-site prospective registry of patients who underwent TOE before cardioversion or catheter ablation were used. LAT-AI was trained to predict LAT using data from 12 sites (n = 2827) and tested externally in patients on chronic OAC from two sites (n = 1284). Areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of LAT-AI were compared with that of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and CHA2DS2-VASc score. A decision threshold allowing for a 99% negative predictive value was defined in the development cohort. A protocol where TOE in patients on chronic OAC is performed depending on the LAT-AI score was validated in the external cohort. In the external testing cohort, LAT was found in 5.5% of patients. LAT-AI achieved an AUC of 0.85 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.82-0.89], outperforming LVEF (0.81, 95% CI 0.76-0.86, P < .0001) and CHA2DS2-VASc score (0.69, 95% CI: 0.63-0.7, P < .0001) in the entire external cohort. Based on the proposed protocol, 40% of patients on chronic OAC from the external cohort would safely avoid TOE.ConclusionLAT-AI allows accurate prediction of LAT. A LAT-AI-based protocol could be used to guide the decision to perform TOE despite chronic OAC.

Transesophageal Versus Transthoracic Echocardiography for Assessment of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function.

Project description:Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has not been compared to transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) for assessment of left ventricular diastolic function (LVDF). Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction is common in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), a disease model of premature myocardial disease. 66 patients with SLE (mean age 36±12 years, 91% women) and 26 age-and-sex matched healthy volunteers (mean age 34±11 years, 85% women) underwent TEE immediately followed by TTE. From basal four-chamber views, mitral inflow E and A velocities, E/A ratio, E deceleration time, isovolumic relaxation time, septal and lateral mitral E' and A' velocities, septal E'/A' ratio, mitral E to septal and lateral E' ratios, and pulmonary veins systolic to diastolic peak velocities ratio were measured. Measurements were averaged over 3 cardiac cycles and performed by 2 independent observers. LVDF parameters were worse in patients than in controls by TEE and TTE (all p≤0.03). Most LVDF parameters were similar within each group by TEE and TTE (all p≥0.17). By both techniques, mitral E and A, mitral and septal E/A ratios, septal and lateral E', septal and lateral E/E' ratios, and average E/E' ratio were highly correlated (r=0.64-0.96, all p≤0.003); E deceleration time, isovolumic relaxation time, and septal A' velocities were moderately correlated (r=0.43-0.54, all p≤0.03); and pulmonary veins systolic to diastolic ratio showed the lowest correlation (r=0.27, p=0.04). By TEE and TTE, LVDF parameters were worse in SLE patients than in controls; and in both groups, LVDF parameters assessed by TEE and TTE were similar and significantly correlated.

Soft tissue displacement for detection of left ventricle apical dyskinesis with transthoracic echocardiography.

Project description:We tested the hypothesis that the use of outward displacement of the soft tissue between the apex and the chest wall as seen in TTE, is a sign of apical displacement and would allow for more accurate diagnosis of apical dyskinesis. This is a retrospective study of 123 patients who underwent TTE and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) within a time frame of 6 months between 2008 and 2019. 110 subjects were deemed to have good quality studies and included in the final analysis. An observer blinded to the study objectives evaluated the echocardiograms and recorded the presence or absence of apical dyskinesis. Two independent observers evaluated the echocardiograms based on the presence or absence of outward displacement of the overlying tissue at the LV apex. Cardiac MRI was used to validate the presence of apical dyskinesis. The proportion of studies which were identified as having apical dyskinesis with conventional criteria defined as outward movement of the left ventricular apex during systole were compared to those deemed to have dyskinesis based on tissue displacement. By cardiac MRI, 90 patients had apical dyskinesis. Using conventional criteria on TTE interpretation, 21 were diagnosed with apical dyskinesis (23.3%). However, when soft tissue displacement was used as the diagnostic marker of dyskinesis, 78 patients (86.7%) were diagnosed with dyskinesis, p < 0.01. Detection of displacement of soft tissue overlying the LV apex facilitates better recognition of LV apical dyskinesis.

Association of Hypertensive Intracerebral Hemorrhage with Left Ventricular Hypertrophy on Transthoracic Echocardiography.

Project description:Arterial hypertension is the most frequent cause for spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) and may also cause left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). We sought to analyze whether hypertensive sICH etiology is associated with LVH. We analyzed consecutive patients with sICH who were admitted to our tertiary stroke center during a four-year period and underwent transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) as part of the diagnostic work-up. We defined hypertensive sICH as typical localization of hemorrhage in patients with arterial hypertension and no other identified sICH etiology. We defined an increased end-diastolic interventricular septal wall thickness of ≥11 mm on TTE as a surrogate parameter for LVH. Among 395 patients with sICH, 260 patients (65.8%) received TTE as part of their diagnostic work-up. The median age was 71 years (interquartile range (IQR) 17), 160 patients (61.5%) were male, the median baseline National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was 8 (IQR 13). Of these, 159 (61.2%) patients had a hypertensive sICH and 156 patients (60%) had LVH. In univariable (113/159 (71.1%) vs. 43/101 (42.6%); odds ratio (OR) 3.31; 95% confidence interval (CI95%) 1.97-5.62); and multivariable (adjusted OR 2.95; CI95% 1.29-6.74) analysis, hypertensive sICH was associated with LVH. In patients with sICH, LVH is associated with hypertensive bleeding etiology. Performing TTE is meaningful for diagnosis of comorbidities and clarification of bleeding etiology in these patients. Future studies should include long-term outcome parameters and assess left ventricular mass as main indicator for LVH.

Calcified left ventricular apical aneurysm with intramural thrombus: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundLeft ventricular aneurysms (LVAs) are a well-appreciated complication of acute myocardial infarction. Ventricular aneurysms involving the left ventricle (LV) typically evolve as a result of anterior myocardial infarction and are associated with greater morbidity, complication rates, and hospital resource utilization. Incidence of LVA is decreasing with advent of modern reperfusion therapies; however, in the setting of excess morbidity, clinicians must maintain an appreciation for their appearance to allow timely diagnosis and individualized care.Case summaryThis case report describes the clinical history, investigation, appearance, and management of a patient with calcified apical LVA with history of previous anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction. The patient was initially admitted for elective coronary angiography in the setting of worsening exertional dyspnoea and subsequently underwent coronary artery bypass graft, aneurysm resection, and LV reconstruction.DiscussionLeft ventricular aneurysms are an uncommon complication experienced in the modern era of acute myocardial infarction and current reperfusion therapies, but remain an important cause of excess morbidity and complication. Evidence-based guidelines for the diagnosis, workup, and subsequent management of LVAs are lacking. The imaging findings presented in this case serve as an important reminder of the appearance of LVAs so that timely diagnosis and individualized care considerations can be made.
