Abstract
Background: This study was conducted to evaluate whether myocardial viability assessed with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) affected long-term clinical outcomes after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICMP).
Methods: Preoperative CMR with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) was performed in 103 patients (64.9 ± 10.1 years, male:female = 82:21) with 3-vessel disease and left ventricular dysfunction (ejection fraction ≤ 0.35). Transmural extent of LGE was evaluated on a 16-segment model, and transmurality was graded on a 5-point scale: grades-0, absence; 1, 1 to 25%; 2, 26 to 50%; 3, 51 to 75%; 4, 76 to 100%. Median follow-up duration was 65.5 months (interquartile range = 27.5-95.3 months). Primary endpoint was the composite of all-cause mortality or hospitalization for congestive heart failure.
Results: Operative mortality was 1.9%. During the follow-up, all-cause mortality and readmission for congestive heart failure occurred in 29 and 8 patients, respectively. The cumulative incidence of the primary endpoint was 31.3 and 46.8% at 5 and 10 years, respectively. Multivariable analysis demonstrated that the number of segments with LGE grade 4 was a significant risk factor (hazard ratio 1.42, 95% confidence interval 1.10-1.83, p = 0.007) for the primary endpoint among the variables assessed by CMR. Other risk factors included age, dialysis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and EuroSCORE II.
Conclusion: The number of myocardial segments with transmurality of LGE >75% might be a prognostic factor associated with the composite of all-cause mortality or hospitalization for congestive heart failure after CABG in patients with 3-vessel disease and ICMP.
