A case report of upgrading to cardiac resynchronization therapy in a patient with congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries and dextrocardia.

Project description:BackgroundCongenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (CCTGA) is a rare congenital heart anomaly. Physiological correction may be associated with a long pre-symptomatic period in many patients and delayed accidental diagnosis. Additional related congenital malformations may increase the complexity of cardiac interventions.Case summaryA 59-year-old man with known dextrocardia, situs viscerum inversus, and CCTGA was scheduled for upgrading of a dual-chamber pacemaker to cardiac resynchronization therapy to treat heart failure related to a progressive systolic dysfunction of the systemic right ventricle (RV). Because of the specific anatomy of this patient, the therapeutic procedure was complicated by the cannulation of the Marshall vein. Nevertheless, the left ventricular lead was successfully implanted into the coronary sinus lateral branch. At the 3-month follow-up, the patient remarkably reported a significant functional improvement, despite no favourable reverse remodelling of the systemic RV.DiscussionUpgrade of a pacemaker to biventricular pacing was feasible in this patient, who had CCTGA and dextrocardia, which resulted in symptomatic improvement at follow-up. Pre-implant contrast cardiac computed tomography angiography was essential for visualizing the venous-specific anatomy in this patient, who suffered from congenital heart disease. Conduction system pacing represents a potential alternative for the patient to prevent or treat pacing-related heart failure.

Ventricular fibrillation in congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries treated with pacing: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundCongenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (CCTGA) is a rare form of congenital heart disease which may present with sudden death from malignant arrhythmias including complete heart block and ventricular tachyarrhythmias as late complications. Only few cases about ventricular tachyarrhythmias, usually in those with markedly depressed systemic ventricular function, have been reported.Case summaryA 26-year-old woman with a known history of CCTGA presented to the emergency department with palpitations and breathlessness for 3-4 weeks and worsening symptoms for 8 h. She had a history of ventricular septal defect repair 14 years ago. Her initial presentation electrocardiogram demonstrated high degree atrioventricular block with a ventricular rate of 44 b.p.m. She had two episodes of complete syncope during this hospitalization, both required external defibrillation due to documented bradycardia-dependent ventricular fibrillations. Her two-dimensional echocardiography study confirmed the diagnosis of CCTGA with preserved systolic ventricular function. She underwent urgent temporal pacing wire placement with a paced ventricular rate at 90 b.p.m. Having thoroughly reviewed the arrhythmia events and discussed with the patient about the option of defibrillator vs. pacemaker therapy a decision was made upon her request for dual-chamber pacemaker implantation. She was discharged home uneventfully 3 days after hospital presentation and has been physically active at 3-, 6-, and 9-month follow-ups.DiscussionOur case illustrates the individualized clinical decision making in choosing device therapy for a rare congenital heart disease presented with malignant arrhythmia. Careful history taking, open communication, and closely planned long-term follow-up will be essential in caring for such patients.

Coronary sinus unroofing associated with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundCongenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) is a rare congenital heart defect that is frequently associated with ventricular septal defects (VSDs) and valvular abnormalities. Advanced cardiac imaging techniques are often needed for early detection and detailed study of potential complications during long-term follow-up in these patients.Case summaryA 20-year-old male, asymptomatic during regular follow-ups, with ccTGA, restrictive subpulmonary VSD, and mild pulmonary stenosis. Latest outpatient evaluations showed progressive biventricular dilation, particularly in the subpulmonary left ventricle. Advanced cardiac imaging, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), identified an imbalance in flow between pulmonary and systemic circulations, indicated by a Qp/Qs ratio of 2.6, which could not be attributed to the known restrictive VSD. Additionally, 4D-flow MRI sequences detected low-velocity interatrial flow in the lower atrial segment. Subsequent targeted cardiac computed tomography (CT) confirmed extensive unroofing of the coronary sinus, revealing an unrecognized shunt contributing to the patient's haemodynamic imbalance.DiscussionCoronary sinus unroofing is exceedingly rare and often clinically silent, complicating diagnosis. Advanced cardiac imaging (MRI, CT) plays a pivotal role in detecting such anomalies. This case underscores the challenges of diagnosing subtle shunts in complex congenital heart disease and highlights the importance of comprehensive imaging for timely intervention and management.

Role of Echocardiography for Assessment of Cardiac Remodeling in Congenitally Corrected Transposition of Great Arteries.

Project description:BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to assess the role of echocardiography for a comprehensive assessment of cardiac remodeling, and the relationship between indices of cardiac remodeling and cardiovascular events (defined as the composite end point of heart failure hospitalization, heart transplant, or cardiovascular death) in adults with congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries (cc-TGA).MethodsThis is a retrospective study of adults with cc-TGA who underwent echocardiogram (2003-2020). Offline image analysis was performed in all patients. Chamber (atrial and ventricular) function and size were assessed by strain imaging and 2-dimensional echocardiography.ResultsOf 233 patients with cc-TGA (40±15 years), 123 (55%) had at least one cardiac procedure before baseline echocardiogram. Of 233 patients, 76% and 61% had left atrial dysfunction and systemic right ventricular dysfunction, respectively; while 43% and 11% had right atrial dysfunction and left ventricular dysfunction, respectively. During a median follow-up of 8.9 years, 114 (49%) underwent additional cardiac procedures, and 66 (28%) had cardiovascular events. Left atrial reservoir strain, right ventricular global longitudinal strain, right atrial reservoir strain, left ventricular systolic pressure, and left ventricular global longitudinal strain were independently associated with cardiovascular events.ConclusionsIn addition to the clinical importance of right ventricular systolic dysfunction in cc-TGA that is already well described, the current study demonstrated, for the first time, that biatrial dysfunction was common and was associated with clinical outcomes. Since there are currently no effective therapies for atrial and ventricular dysfunction in patients with cc-TGA, there is a need for research to identify novel strategies to prevent atrial and ventricular dysfunction in this population.

Failing systemic right ventricle in a patient with dextrocardia and complex congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries: a case report of successful transvenous cardiac resynchronization therapy.

Project description:BackgroundPatients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) are prone to the development of advanced atrio-ventricular block requiring chronic ventricular pacing. The morphological right ventricle (RV) often develops systolic dysfunction as it is unable to withstand the chronic pressure overload it is exposed to when supporting the systemic circulation.Case summaryA 56-year-old woman with dextrocardia and complex ccTGA with a history of dual-chamber implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (DDD-ICD, high degree atrio-ventricular-block and syncopal ventricular tachycardia), presented with progressive heart failure and symptomatic atrial arrhythmias. She underwent a successful ablation and concomitant invasive haemodynamic evaluation of potential alternative/biventricular pacing modalities. During biventricular pacing, the QRS narrowed and the systemic RV intraventricular pressure (Dp/Dt) increased with 30%. She underwent a successful transvenous upgrade to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). The electrocardiogram post-implantation showed biventricular capture and patient showed subjective and objective clinical improvement.DiscussionSystemic RV dysfunction in ccTGA can be aggravated by chronic pacing-induced dyssynchrony, contributing to progression of heart failure in this patient group. Transvenous CRT is feasible in ccTGA anatomy and may be pursued in order to improve or preserve the functional status of pacing-dependent ccTGA patients. Invasive haemodynamic contractility evaluation can help assess the potential benefit of CRT in patients with complex anatomy.
