Abstract
OBJETIVO: Avaliar os efeitos da abertura efetiva da valva mitral estenótica através da valvotomia percutânea por cateter balão na função do apêndice atrial esquerdo. MÉTODOS: Foram estudados 12 pacientes com estenose mitral sintomática, em ritmo sinusal, submetidos ao ecocardiograma transesofágico antes e após valvotomia percutânea por cateter balão efetiva. Em relação ao apêndice atrial esquerdo, foram analisadas ao Doppler pulsátil as velocidades máximas e respectivas integrais dos fluxos anterógrado e retrógrado, além da fração de ejeção calculada pela planimetria da área desta estrutura. RESULTADOS: Houve aumento significante das velocidades de fluxo anterógrado do apêndice atrial esquerdo após valvotomia percutânea por cateter balão (pré: média de 0,30 m/s; pós: média de 0,47 m/s; p<0,05) e de suas respectivas integrais. O mesmo ocorreu com as velocidades de fluxo retrógrado (pré: média de 0,35 m/s, pós: média de 0,53 m/s; p<0,05). Houve tendência de aumento da fração de ejeção do apêndice atrial esquerdo após o procedimento (pré: média de 20%, pós: média de 31%; p=0,08). CONCLUSÃO: A abertura efetiva do orifício mitral estenosado decorrente da valvotomia percutânea por cateter balão determinou melhora do padrão de fluxo do apêndice atrial esquerdo, o que potencialmente pode contribuir para redução do risco embólico.
OBJECTIVE: To assess the effects of the relief of the mitral stenosis by percutaneous ballon valvotomy in the function of the left atrial appendage. METHODS: Twelve patients with symptomatic mitral stenosis, in sinus rhythm, were studied. They were submitted to the transesophageal echocardiogram before and after effective percutaneous ballon valvotomy. Concerning the left atrial appendage, the peak flow velocities and the respective integral of the anterograde and retrograde flow, in addition to the ejection fraction calculated through the planimetry of the area of that structure, were analyzed at the pulsatile Doppler. RESULTS: There was a significant increase of the anterograde flow velocity of the left atrial appendage after percutaneous ballon valvotomy (pre: mean of 0.30 m/s; post: mean of 0.47 m/s; p<0.05) and their respective integrals. The same happened with the retrograde flow velocity (pre: mean of 0.35 m/s, post: mean of 0.53 m/s; p<0.05). There was a tendency of increase of the ejection fraction of the left atrial appendage after the procedure (pre: mean of 20%, post: mean of 31%; p=0.08). CONCLUSION: The effective opening of the stenosed mitral orifice resulting from the percutaneous ballon valvotomy determined an improvement of the flow pattern of the left atrial appendage, which can potentially contribute for the reduction of the embolic risk.
