Milan Experience of Catheter Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation

Cardiac Arrhythmias (2002)

Carlo Pappone Salvatore Rosanio Giuseppe Oreto Monica Tocchi Filippo Gugliotta

Until very recently, physicians considered atrial fibrillation (AF) as a benign arrhythmia which either did not require any treatment or could be managed adequately with some digoxin. During the last decade, however, epidemiological studies have shown that AF carries considerable morbidity and mortality. The concept that "AF begets AF" has further strengthened the need for a more aggressive approach towards prevention and treatment of AF. At the same time, the evolution of cardiac mapping technologies has allowed the development of new, nonsurgical strategies to cure this common arryhythmia.

A Randomized Study of Prophylactic Catheter Ablation in Asymptomatic Patients with the Wolff–Parkinson–White Syndrome

New England Journal of Medicine (2003)

Carlo Pappone Vincenzo Santinelli Francesco Manguso Giuseppe Augello Ornella Santinelli

Young age and inducibility of atrioventricular reciprocating tachycardia or atrial fibrillation during invasive electrophysiological testing identify asymptomatic patients with a Wolff–Parkinson–White pattern on the electrocardiogram as being at high risk for arrhythmic events. We tested the hypothesis that prophylactic catheter ablation of accessory pathways would provide meaningful and durable benefits as compared with no treatment in such patients.

Endovascular Stenting for the Nutcracker Phenomenon

Journal of Endovascular Therapy (2001)

Roberto Chiesa Angelo Anzuini Enrico Maria Marone Carlo Briguori Marcelo R. L. Moura

Purpose To present a case highlighting the efficacy of stent implantation for left renal vein (LRV) entrapment, otherwise known as the nutcracker phenomenon. Case report A 17-year-old boy presented with a history of gross hematuria and left flank pain. Magnetic resonance angiography documented compression of the LRV between the superior mesenteric artery and aorta. A Memotherm stent was successfully placed across the LRV to restore adequate luminal flow after a Wallstent failed to adequately span the narrowed segment. Spiral CT angiography at 6 months confirmed LRV patency; the patient remains asymptomatic and free of hematuria at 12 months. Conclusions Endovascular stenting for the nutcracker phenomenon is safe and effective and may represent a valuable approach for lessening the morbidity of surgical procedures.

Cardiac pacing in heart failure patients with left bundle branch block: impact of pacing site for optimizing left ventricular resynchronization.

PubMed (2000)

Carlo Pappone Salvatore Rosanio G Oreto Monica Tocchi Simone Gulletta

Acute left ventricular pacing has been associated with hemodynamic improvement in patients with congestive heart failure and wide QRS complex. We hypothesized that pacing two left ventricular sites simultaneously would produce faster activation and better systolic function than single-site pacing.We selected 14 heart failure patients (NYHA functional class III or IV) in normal sinus rhythm with left bundle branch block and QRS > 150 ms. An 8F dual micromanometer catheter was placed in the aorta for measuring +dP/dt (mmHg/s), aortic pulse pressure (mmHg), and end-diastolic pressure (mmHg). Pacing leads were positioned via coronary veins at the posterior base and lateral wall. Patients were acutely paced VDD at the posterior base, lateral wall, and both sites (dual-site) with 5 atrioventricular delays (from 8 ms to PR -30 ms). Pacing sequences were executed in randomized order using a custom external computer (FlexStim, Guidant CRM).Dual-site pacing increased peak +dP/dt significantly more than posterior base and lateral wall pacing. Dual-site and posterior base pacing raised aortic pulse pressure significantly more than lateral wall pacing. Dual-site pacing shortened QRS duration by 22 %, whereas posterior base and lateral wall pacing increased it by 2 and 12%, respectively (p = 0.006).In heart failure patients with left bundle branch block, dual-site pacing improves systolic function more than single-site stimulation. Improved ventricular activation synchrony, expressed by paced QRS narrowing, may account for the additional benefit of dual- vs single-site pacing in enhancing contractility. This novel approach deserves consideration for future heart failure pacing studies.

To assess the prognostic significance of supraventricular tachyarrhythmias (SVTA) during acute myocardial infarction (AMI), we studied 388 patients with first AMI, without ventricular preexcitation or chronic atrial fibrillation. The prevalence of SVTA was 14% (56/388), including atrial fibrillation (57%), atrial flutter (22%), polyfocal atrial tachycardia (14%), monofocal atrial tachycardia (7%). The arrhythmia appeared within 72 hours from the onset of chest pain in 61% of patients (early SVTA < 72 hours), while in 39% appeared later (late SVTA > 72 hours). Patients with SVTA (Group I n = 56) and without SVTA (Group II n = 232) were similar regarding prevalence of hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, site of infarction and fibrinolysis, but SVTA was associated with a significant increase in death (Group I 18% versus Group II 9%; p < 0.05) and complications as pulmonary oedema and cardiogenic shock (Group I 25% versus Group II 14%; p < 0.05). Left atrial dimensions (LAD), end-diastolic left ventricular volume (EDLVV), end-systolic left ventricular volume (ESLVV) and echo-score, evaluated at admission, were not different between Group I and II (LAD 41.3 +/- 6 mm versus 40.1 +/- 5 mm, NS; EDLVV 181 +/- 34 ml versus 173 +/- 30 ml, NS; ESLVV 80 +/- 21 ml versus 75 +/- 18 ml, NS; echo-score 6.7 +/- 3.1 versus 6 +/- 2.7, NS) while pre-discharge echo-grams in Group I showed a trend towards the increase in volumes and echo-score (EDLVV from 181 +/- 34 ml to 194 +/- 36 ml, p = 0.052; ESLVV from 80 +/- 23 ml to 88 +/- 23 ml, p = 0.051; echo-score from 6.7 +/- 3.1 to 7.8 +/- 3.3, p = 0.070).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
