Purpose: Pulmonary valve regurgitation after repaired Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) or double-outlet right ventricle (DORV) causes hypertrophy and papillary muscle enlargement. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) can evaluate the right ventricular (RV) dilatation, but the effect of trabecular and papillary muscle (TPM) exclusion on RV volume for TOF or DORV reoperation decision is unclear.
Methods: Twenty-three patients with repaired TOF or DORV, and 19 healthy controls aged ≥15, underwent CMR from 2012 to 2022. TPM volume is measured by artificial intelligence. Reoperation was considered when RV end-diastolic volume index (RVEDVI) >150 mL/m2 or RV end-systolic volume index (RVESVI) >80 mL/m2.
Results: RV volumes were higher in the disease group than controls (P α 0.001). RV mass and TPM volumes were higher in the disease group (P α 0.001). The reduction rate of RV volumes due to the exclusion of TPM volume was 6.3% (2.1–10.5), 11.7% (6.9–13.8), and 13.9% (9.5–19.4) in the control, volume load, and volume α pressure load groups, respectively. TPM/RV volumes were higher in the volume α pressure load group (control: 0.07 g/mL, volume: 0.14 g/mL, volume α pressure: 0.17 g/mL), and correlated with QRS duration (R α 0.77). In 3 patients in the volume α pressure, RV volume included TPM was indicated for reoperation, but when RV volume was reduced by TPM removal, reoperation was no indicated.
Conclusion: RV volume measurements, including TPM in volume α pressure load, may help determine appropriate volume recommendations for reoperation.
