- Accessory Atrioventricular Pathways Refractory to Catheter Ablation Role of Percutaneous Epicardial Approach(2015) SCANAVACCA, Mauricio Ibrahim; STERNICK, Eduardo Back; PISANI, Cristiano; LARA, Sissy; HARDY, Carina; D'AVILA, Andre; CORREA, Frederico Soares; DARRIEUX, Francisco; HACHUL, Denise; MARCIAL, Miguel Barbero; SOSA, Eduardo A.Background-Epicardial mapping and ablation of accessory pathways through a subxiphoid approach can be an alternative when endocardial or epicardial transvenous mapping has failed. Methods and Results-We reviewed acute and long-term follow-up of 21 patients (14 males) referred for percutaneous epicardial accessory pathway ablation. There was a median of 2 previous failed procedures. All patients were highly symptomatic, 8 had atrial fibrillation (3 with cardiac arrest) and 13 had frequent symptomatic episodes of atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia. Six patients (28.5%) had a successful epicardial ablation. Five patients (23.8%) underwent a successful repeated endocardial mapping, and ablation after epicardial mapping yielded no early activation site. Epicardial mapping was helpful in guiding endocardial ablation in 2 patients (9.5%), showing that the earliest activation was simultaneous at the epicardium and endocardium. Four patients (19%) underwent successful open-chest surgery after failing epicardial/endocardial ablation. Two patients (9.5%) remained controlled under antiarrhythmic drugs after unsuccessful endocardial/epicardial ablation. Two patients had a coronary sinus diverticulum and one a right atrium to right ventricle diverticulum. Three patients acquired postablation coronary sinus stenosis. There was no major complication related to pericardial access. Conclusions-Percutaneous epicardial approach is an alternative when conventional endocardial or transvenous epicardial ablation fails in the elimination of the accessory pathway. A new attempt by endocardial approach was successful in a significant number of patients. Open-chest surgery may be required in symptomatic cases refractory to endocardial-epicardial approach.
- Effects of anthracycline, cyclophosphamide and taxane chemotherapy on QTc measurements in patients with breast cancer(2018) VERONESE, Pedro; HACHUL, Denise Tessariol; SCANAVACCA, Mauricio Ibrahim; HAJJAR, Ludhmila Abrahao; WU, Tan Chen; SACILOTTO, Luciana; VERONESE, Carolina; DARRIEUX, Francisco Carlos da CostaAim Acute and subacute cardiotoxicity are characterized by prolongation of the corrected QT interval (QTc) and other measures derived from the QTc interval, such as QTc dispersion (QTdc) and transmural dispersion of repolarization (DTpTe). Although anthracyclines prolong the QTc interval, it is unclear whether breast cancer patients who undergo the ACT chemotherapy regimen of anthracycline (doxorubicin: A), cyclophosphamide (C) and taxane (T) may present with QTc, QTdc and DTpTe prolongation. Methods Twenty-three consecutive patients with breast cancer were followed prospectively during ACT chemotherapy and were analyzed according to their QT measurements. QTc, QTdc and DTpTe measurements were determined by a 12-lead electrocardiogram (EKG) prior to chemotherapy (baseline), immediately after the first phase of anthracycline and cyclophosphamide (AC) treatment, and immediately after T treatment. Serum troponin and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels were also measured. Results Compared to baseline values, the QTc interval was significantly prolonged after the AC phase (439.7 +/- 33.2 ms vs. 472.5 +/- 36.3 ms, p = 0.001) and after T treatment (439.7 +/- 33.2 ms vs. 467.9 +/- 42.6 ms, p < 0.001). Troponin levels were elevated after the AC phase (23.0 pg/mL [min-max: 6.0-85.0] vs. 6.0 pg/mL [min-max: 6.0-22.0], p < 0.001) and after T treatment (25.0 pg/mL [min-max: 6.0-80.0] vs. 6.0 pg/mL [min-max: 6.0-22.0], p < 0.001) compared to baseline values. Conclusion In this prospective study of patients with non-metastatic breast cancer who underwent ACT chemotherapy, significant QTc prolongation and an elevation in serum troponin levels were observed.
conferenceObject Brugada syndrome: value of electrophysiologic study in the risk stratification(2017) PAIXAO, G.; LAMES, C.; ROSA, X.; SACILOTTO, L.; DARRIEUX, F.; CHORK, M.; WU, T. C.; PISANI, C.; HACHUL, D.; SCANAVACCA, M.- Age is associated with time in therapeutic range for warfarin therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation(2016) MARCATTO, Leiliane Rodrigues; SACILOTTO, Luciana; DARRIEUX, Francisco Carlos da Costa; HACHUL, Denise Tessariol; SCANAVACCA, Mauricio Ibrahim; KRIEGER, Jose Eduardo; PEREIRA, Alexandre Costa; SANTOS, Paulo Caleb Junior LimaBackground: Warfarin is the most prescribed oral anticoagulant used for preventing stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation. Time in the therapeutic range (TTR) has been accepted as the best method to evaluate the quality of warfarin therapy. The main aim of the present study was to evaluate the impact of variables on the time in the therapeutic range for warfarin therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation from a referral cardiovascular hospital. Methods: This retrospective study included 443 patients were included (190 patients with age < 65 years and 253 patients with age >= 65 years) from 2011 to 2014 and TTR was computed according to Rosendaal's method. Results: Patients with age >= 65 years had higher TTR value (67+/-22%) compared with patients with < 65 years (60+/-24%) (p = 0.004). In a linear regression model, only age >= 65 years emerged as a significant predictor of greater TTR values. In multivariate logistic regression model, the variable age = 65 years was associated with higher OR for having a TTR higher than the median value (OR = 2.17, p < 0.001). Conclusion: We suggest that the age influenced TTR through greater drug adherence. Strategies for increasing drug adherence might improve quality of warfarin anticoagulation.

- Compound Heterozygous SCN5A Mutations in a Toddler - Are they Associated with a More Severe Phenotype?(2017) SACILOTTO, Luciana; EPIFANIO, Hindalis Ballesteros; DARRIEUX, Francisco Carlos da Costa; WULKAN, Fanny; OLIVEIRA, Theo Gremen Mimary; HACHUL, Denise Tessariol; PEREIRA, Alexandre da Costa; SCANAVACCA, Mauricio IbrahimCompound heterozygosity has been described in inherited arrhythmias, and usually associated with a more severe phenotype. Reports of this occurrence in Brugada syndrome patients are still rare. We report a study of genotype-phenotype correlation after the identification of new variants by genetic testing. We describe the case of an affected child with a combination of two different likely pathogenic SCN5A variants, presenting sinus node dysfunction, flutter and atrial fibrillation, prolonged HV interval, spontaneous type 1 Brugada pattern in the prepubescent age and familiar history of sudden death.
- Selective atrial vagal denervation guided by spectral mapping to treat advanced atrioventricular block(2016) RIVAROLA, Esteban; HARDY, Carina; SOSA, Eduardo; HACHUL, Denise; FURLAN, Valter; RAIMUNDI, Fabrizio; SCANAVACCA, MauricioAsymptomatic nocturnal long ventricular pauses are usually detected accidentally and it has been suggested that they may lead to sudden death. Identification of predisposing factors could prevent cardiovascular events. We report the case of a patient with frequent asymptomatic nocturnal ventricular pauses of 3-11 s, characteristic of a vagally mediated atrioventricular (AV) block. Echocardiography, treadmill test, thyroid function test levels, and polysomnogram were normal. In an attempt to reduce the risk, it was decided that an atrial vagal denervation induced by radiofrequency (RF) ablation (cardioneuroablation) could be useful. Spectral mapping was used to localize endocardial vagal innervation in the right and left aspects of the inter-atrial septum, responsible for the sinus node and AV node modulation, and RF pulses were applied in those sites only. After finishing the procedure, significant changes were observed in the heart rate (66-90 b.p.m.), atrial-His interval (115-74 ms), Wenckebach cycle length (820-570 ms), and sinus node recovery time (1100-760 ms). Follow-up Holter recording demonstrated that the number of ventricular pauses had reduced from 438 to 0. Heart rate and time domain characteristics were compatible with vagal denervation. Ablation of the endocardial vagal innervation sites seems to be safe and efficient in reducing the frequency and the length of the ventricular pauses. It was possible by identifying certain spectral components of the atrial electrogram, resulting in a conservative approach.
