摘要

Background

Pulmonary stenosis (PS) is common in congenital heart disease and an integral finding in Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Pulmonary regurgitation (PR) is more commonly found following surgery in repaired TOF. We aimed to evaluate the haemodynamic effects of PS and PR on cardiac physiology in a porcine model using cardiac magnetic resonance-based feature tracking (CMR-FT) deformation imaging.

Methods

CMR-FT was performed in 14 pigs before and 10–12 weeks after surgery. Surgery included either pulmonary artery banding to simulate PS (n = 7), or an incision to the pulmonary valve to simulate PR (n = 7). CMR-FT assessment included left and right ventricular global longitudinal (LV/RV GLS) and LV circumferential (GCS) strain and strain rates (SR) as well as left and right atrial reservoir/conduit/booster pump (LA/RA Es, Ee, Ea) strain and SR.

Results

RV GLS was significantly reduced following PS compared to PR induction (PS -7.51 vs. PR -23.84, p < 0.001). RV GLS improved after induction of PR (before − 20.50 vs. after − 23.84, p = 0.018) as opposed to PS (before − 11.73 vs. after − 7.51, p = 0.128). Similarly, RA Es (PS 14.22 vs. PR 27.34, p = 0.017) and Ee (PS 8.65 vs. PR 20.51, p = 0.004) were decreased in PS compared to PR with detrimental impact of PS (Es before 23.20 vs. after 14.22, p = 0.018, Ee before 15.04 vs. after 8.65, p = 0.028) but not PR (Es before 31.65 vs. after 27.34, p = 0.176, Ee before 20.63 vs. after 20.51, p = 0.499).

Conclusions

In a porcine model of RV pressure vs. volume overload, increased after- but not preload shows detrimental impact on RV and RA physiology.
