Additive value of dobutamine stress echocardiography in patients with an anomalous origin of a coronary artery
Additive value of dobutamine stress echocardiography in patients with an anomalous origin of a coronary artery
An anomalous origin of a coronary artery (AOCA) is the second most common cause of non-traumatic sudden cardiac death in young athletes. Patients with a malignant course of an AOCA of the right coronary artery only need surgical correction when myocardial ischaemia is detected. An AOCA and its malignant or benign course can be detected by coronary angiography, coronary computed tomography or cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Detection of ischaemia can be more difficult since even a negative maximal-effort stress ECG does not exclude a potential lethal coronary anomaly. Also, there are no case series or trials showing sensitivity or specificity for any form of ischaemia detection for AOCA in the literature. Although not described previously in adults, dobutamine stress echocardiography was previously described in a paediatric population with AOCA. We are the first to describe ischaemia detection by dobutamine stress echocardiography in three adult patients with an AOCA of the right coronary artery who were subsequently referred for surgery

Perinatal Outcome and Long-Term Neurodevelopment after Intracranial Haemorrhage due to Fetal and Neonatal Alloimmune Thrombocytopenia
Objectives: To evaluate the perinatal and long-term neurodevelopmental outcome in a cohort of children with intracranial haemorrhage (ICH) due to fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) and to clearly outline the burden of this disease. Subjects and Methods: We performed an observational cohort study and included all consecutive cases of ICH caused by FNAIT from 1993 to 2015 at Leiden University Medical Centre. Neurological, motor, and cognitive development were assessed at a minimum age of 1 year. The primary outcome was adverse outcome, defined as perinatal death or severe neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI). Severe NDI was defined as any of the following: cerebral palsy (Gross Motor Function Classification System [GMFCS] level >= II), bilateral deafness, blindness, or severe motor and/or cognitive developmental delay (<-2 SD). Results: In total, 21 cases of ICH due to FNAIT were included in the study. The perinatal mortality rate was 10/21 (48%). Long-term outcome was assessed in 10 children (n = 1 lost to follow-up). Severe and moderate NDI were diagnosed in 6/10 (60%) and 1/10 (10%) of the surviving children. The overall adverse outcome, including perinatal mortality or severe NDI, was 16/20 (80%). Conclusions: The risk of perinatal death or severe NDI in children with ICH due to FNAIT is high. Only screening and effective preventive treatment can avoid this burden.

Periprocedural Complications and Long-Term Outcome After Alcohol Septal Ablation Versus Surgical Myectomy in Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy A Single-Center Experience
AbstractObjectivesThis study compared alcohol septal ablation (ASA) and surgical myectomy for periprocedural complications and long-term clinical outcome in patients with symptomatic hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.BackgroundDebate remains whether ASA is equally effective and safe compared with myectomy.MethodsAll procedures performed between 1981 and 2010 were evaluated for periprocedural complications and long-term clinical outcome. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality; secondary endpoints consisted of annual cardiac mortality, New York Heart Association functional class, rehospitalization for heart failure, reintervention, cerebrovascular accident, and myocardial infarction.ResultsA total of 161 patients after ASA and 102 patients after myectomy were compared during a maximal follow-up period of 11 years. The periprocedural (30-day) complication frequency after ASA was lower compared with myectomy (14% vs. 27%, p = 0.006), and median duration of in-hospital stay was shorter (5 days [interquartle range (IQR): 4 to 6 days] vs. 9 days [IQR: 6 to 12 days], p < 0.001). After ASA, provoked gradients were higher compared with myectomy (19 [IQR: 10 to 42] vs. 10 [IQR: 7 to 13], p < 0.001). After multivariate analysis, age (per 5 years) (hazard ratio: 1.34 [95% confidence interval: 1.08 to 1.65], p = 0.007) was the only independent predictor for all-cause mortality. Annual cardiac mortality after ASA and myectomy was comparable (0.7% vs. 1.4%, p = 0.15). During follow-up, no significant differences were found in symptomatic status, rehospitalization for heart failure, reintervention, cerebrovascular accident, or myocardial infarction between both groups.ConclusionsSurvival and clinical outcome were good and comparable after ASA and myectomy. More periprocedural complications and longer duration of hospital stay after myectomy were offset by higher gradients after ASA

Effect of alcohol dosage on long‐term outcomes after alcohol septal ablation in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Basal infarct location but not larger infarct size is associated with a successful outcome after alcohol septal ablation in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy: a cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging study
Alcohol septal ablation (ASA) is successful in most but not in all patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). We therefore sought to investigate the relation between infarct location versus infarct size with outcome after ASA in patients with obstructive HCM. Baseline characteristics, procedural characteristics, and cardiovascular magnetic resonance findings at baseline and 4-6 month follow-up after ASA were analysed in 47 patients with obstructive HCM in a single-center retrospective study. Infarct size was determined using late gadolinium enhancement. Infarct location was divided into "basal infarction" and "distal infarction" based on an optimal cut-of value of the distance from the basal septum to the beginning of the infarction. A "successful" outcome was defined as 80 % reduction of the invasive gradient with a post-procedural gradient of <10 mmHg. Basal infarctions (n = 31) compared to distal infarctions (n = 16) were associated with successful outcome (100 vs. 38 %, P <0.001). Larger infarct size (n = 20) compared to smaller infarct size (n = 27) was not associated with successful outcome (75 vs. 82 %, P = 0.72). A more distal location of the infarction, was the only predictor of a less successful outcome (odds ratio 0.76, 95 % confidence interval 0.54-0.98, P = 0.03). Basal versus distal infarctions were also associated with a lower provoked gradient at late (2.6 +/- A 2.2 years) follow-up (11 (6-20) vs. 27 (12-94) mmHg, P = 0.01). Basal infarctions were associated with a successful outcome after ASA. A larger infarct size was not associated with a better outcome
