    BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is frequently seen in patients with a volume-loaded left atrium (LA) such as mitral valve regurgitation (MR). Previous animal models have incomplete relevance to human AF associated with MR. METHODS: A novel experimental model with a combination of volume loading of LA by creating a shunt from the subclavian artery to pulmonary artery and electrical remodeling induced by continuous rapid LA pacing was designed and the electrophysiological effects were examined in 10 canines. Five weeks after the shunt surgery, the entire atrial epicardium was mapped during sustained AF with form-fitted electrode patches with 246 bipolar electrodes and a three-dimensional dynamic mapping system to characterize the induced AF. RESULTS: Three animals died of severe heart failure and pacing failure occurred in one. Remaining six animals were subjected to the analysis. The LA diameter increased progressively after the shunt surgery. Sustained AF was induced after 3 weeks of continuous rapid LA pacing in all animals. The activation maps revealed repetitive focal activations arising from the pulmonary veins, right or left atrial regions, and reentrant activations in the RA, which patterns of atrial activations are the same as those seen in human AF. CONCLUSION: The animal model with a combination of LA volume load and electrical remodeling was relevant to human AF associated with LA volume load. Studies using the present model may provide further knowledges of AF and may be useful in examining the effects of pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies.

    BACKGROUND: Although surgical approaches for infected or failing cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) leads are more invasive than transvenous approaches, they are still required for patients considered unsuitable for transvenous procedures. In this study, surgical management with transvenous equipment for CIED complications was examined in patients unsuitable for transvenous lead extraction.Methods and Results: We retrospectively examined 152 consecutive patients who underwent CIED extraction between April 2009 and December 2021 at the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Nippon Medical School. Nine patients (5.9%; mean [±SD] age 61.7±16.7 years) who underwent open heart surgery were identified as unsuitable for the isolated transvenous approach. CIED types included 5 pacemakers and 4 implantable cardioverter-defibrillators; the mean [±SD] lead age was 19.5±7.0 years. Indications for surgical management according to Heart Rhythm Society guidelines included failed prior to transvenous CIED extraction (n=6), intracardiac vegetation (n=2), and severe lead adhesion (n=1). Transvenous CIED extraction tools were used in all patients during or before surgery. Additional surgical procedures with CIED extraction included epicardial lead implantation (n=4) and tricuspid valve repair (n=3). All patients were discharged; during the follow-up period (mean 5.7±3.7 years), only 1 patient died (non-cardiac cause). CONCLUSIONS: Surgical procedures and transvenous extraction tools were combined in the removal strategy for efficacious surgical management of CIED leads. Intensive surgical procedures were safely performed in patients unsuitable for transvenous extraction.

    Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute inflammatory syndrome of unknown etiology that is complicated by cardiovascular sequelae. Chronic inflammation (vasculitis) due to KD might cause vascular cellular senescence and vascular endothelial cell damage, and is a potential cause of atherosclerosis in young adults. This study examined the effect of KD and HMG-CoA inhibitors (statins) on vascular cellular senescence and vascular endothelial cells. Candida albicans water-soluble fraction (CAWS) was administered intraperitoneally to 5-week-old male apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE-) mice to induce KD-like vasculitis. The mice were then divided into three groups: control, CAWS, and CAWS+statin groups. Ten weeks after injection, the mice were sacrificed and whole aortic tissue specimens were collected. Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) expression in the ascending aortic intima epithelium was evaluated using immunostaining. In addition, eNOS expression and levels of cellular senescence markers were measured in RNA and proteins extracted from whole aortic tissue. KD-like vasculitis impaired vascular endothelial cells that produce eNOS, which maintains vascular homeostasis, and promoted macrophage infiltration into the tissue. Statins also restored vascular endothelial cell function by promoting eNOS expression. Statins may be used to prevent secondary cardiovascular events during the chronic phase of KD.

    Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute form of systemic vasculitis that may promote atherosclerosis in adulthood. This study examined the relationships between KD, atherosclerosis, and the long-term effects of HMG-CoA inhibitors (statins). Candida albicans water-soluble fraction (CAWS) was injected intraperitoneally into 5-week-old male apolipoprotein-E-deficient (Apo E-/-) mice to create KD-like vasculitis. Mice were divided into 4 groups: the control, CAWS, CAWS+statin, and late-statin groups. They were sacrificed at 6 or 10 weeks after injection. Statin was started after CAWS injection in all groups except the late-statin group, which was administered statin internally 6 weeks after injection. Lipid plaque lesions on the aorta were evaluated with Oil Red O. The aortic root and abdominal aorta were evaluated with hematoxylin and eosin staining and immunostaining. CAWS vasculitis significantly enhanced aortic atherosclerosis and inflammatory cell invasion into the aortic root and abdominal aorta. Statins significantly inhibited atherosclerosis and inflammatory cell invasion, including macrophages. CAWS vasculitis, a KD-like vasculitis, promoted atherosclerosis in Apo E-/- mice. The long-term oral administration of statin significantly suppressed not only atherosclerosis but also inflammatory cell infiltration. Therefore, statin treatment may be used for the secondary prevention of cardiovascular events during the chronic phase of KD.

    OBJECTIVE: Myocardial ischemia is known to suppress fatty acid metabolism and favor glucose metabolism. However, changes in myocardial metabolism after coronary revascularization are not fully elucidated. METHODS: Thirty-eight patients with coronary artery disease were retrospectively enrolled. These patients had undergone stress perfusion single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and 123I-BMIPP SPECT in both the short-term (6.4 ± 4.7 months) and mid-term (29.9 ± 7.2 months) after isolated coronary artery bypass grafting. Tracer uptake was graded using a 17-segment, 5-point scoring model. Serial changes in SRS (summed rest score), SDS (summed difference score), the BMIPP score (total defect score of BMIPP), and the mismatch score (BMIPP score-SRS) were evaluated. In addition, persistent perfusion-metabolism mismatch (PM) was defined as mismatch score minus SDS of 3 or more during the mid-term postoperative period. The clinical parameters associated with PM were examined. RESULTS: From short- to mid-term postoperative period, the extent of infarcted myocardium (SRS) did not change significantly (7.8 ± 8.0 to 7.1 ± 7.0, P = 0.117). The extent of ischemic myocardium (SDS), the BMIPP score and the mismatch score, which reflects perfusion-metabolism mismatch, were significantly improved (2.0 ± 2.8 to 0.7 ± 1.0, P = 0.010; 12.2 ± 9.0 to 9.5 ± 7.9, P < 0.001; 4.4 ± 3.7 to 2.5 ± 2.6, P < 0.001; respectively). Remarkably, perfusion-metabolism mismatch persisted in 13 patients (34%) even in the mid-term postoperative period. eGFR and SYNTAX score were independent predictors of persistent perfusion-metabolic mismatch in multivariable analysis (OR = 0.951, 95% CI 0.898-0.985, P = 0.010 and OR = 1.126, 95% CI 1.011-1.254, P = 0.031, respectively). The mismatch score both in the short- and mid-term significantly correlated with SYNTAX score (r = 0.400 and r = 0.472, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Fatty acid metabolism disturbance improved from short- to mid-term postoperative period in patients with successful reperfusion by coronary artery bypass grafting. However, in patients with severe atherosclerosis, impaired fatty acid metabolism was sustained until the mid-term postoperative period, even though ischemia had resolved.

    BACKGROUND: Operative mortality after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has been reported as lower than open surgical repair (OSR) for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) in randomized controlled trials. However, many cohort studies have demonstrated similar mortality rates for both procedures. We compared operative mortality between EVAR and OSR, at our institution. METHODS: All AAA operations from 2012 to 2017 were reviewed, and baseline characteristics were collected. Outcomes included 30-day mortality, operative data, complications, length of hospital stay (LOS), costs, re-intervention, and survival rates were compared. A multivariable analysis with unbalanced characteristics was performed. RESULTS: We had a total of 162 patients, 100 having OSR and 62 for EVAR. The EVAR group was older, with higher ASA classification. Thirty-day mortality rate did not significantly differ (0/100 for OSR and 2/62 (3%) for EVAR; p = 0.145), while the EVAR group had less blood loss, shorter operative times, and LOS, but higher re-intervention rates (adjusted hazard ratio 6.4 (95%CI: 1.4, 26.8)). Survival rates did not significantly differ between the groups. EVAR cost approximately 1-million yen more. CONCLUSIONS: OSR had low 30-day mortality rate in selected low-risk patients whereas EVAR had less blood loss, shorter operative times, LOS and could be done in high-risk patients with low 30-day mortality but with higher re-intervention rate.

    OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to explore the flow dynamics factors affecting turbulence formation in the false lumen (FL) of aortic dissection using four-dimensional flow magnetic resonance imaging (4D flow MRI). This study also aimed to uncover risk factors affecting late complications of aortic dissection. METHODS: Thirty-three aortic dissection patients were examined using 4D flow MRI for quantitative flow dynamics (gross flow, velocity and regurgitant fraction) and turbulence visualization (helix and vortex with three-point visual grading) in the FL. The incidence of late complications (rupture or prophylactic intervention) was also obtained prospectively. RESULTS: The helix grade was correlated with FL gross flow (rS = 0.55, P < 0.001) and FL velocity (rS = 0.45, P = 0.008). The vortex grade was also correlated with FL gross flow (rS = 0.70, P < 0.001) and FL velocity (rS = 0.67, P < 0.001). Comparative analysis of patients with complications and stable patients revealed that patients with complications exhibited higher FL gross flow [41.7 (interquartile range, IQR 29.1-59.7) vs 17.7 (IQR 9.0-42.0) ml/s; P = 0.01], higher helix grade [2 (IQR 1.25-2) vs 0 (IQR 0-1); P = 0.001] and higher vortex grade [2 (IQR 1-2) vs 0 (IQR 0-2); P = 0.01]. CONCLUSIONS: Using 4D flow MRI analysis, we showed that turbulence formation depends on flow volume and velocity in the FL. Patients with high-volume turbulent flow in their FL are at higher risk of late complications; therefore, close follow-up and aggressive prophylactic intervention may improve their survival. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: Nippon Medical School Hospital Institutional Review Board approved this observational study in September 2018 (No. 30-08-986).

    Background: Although the causative pathogens in cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) infections are well known, the relationship between time after implantation and infection patterns has not been sufficiently investigated. This study investigated the microbiology and onset of CIED infections according to infection patterns. Methods and Results: This retrospective study included 97 patients who underwent CIED removal due to device-related infections between April 2009 and December 2018. After device implantation, infections peaked in the first year and declined gradually over 10 years. Most infections (>60%) occurred within 5 years. Staphylococcal infections, the predominant form of CIED infections, occurred throughout the study period. CIED infections were categorized as systemic (SI; n=26) or local (LI; n=71) infections according to clinical presentation, and as CIED pocket-related (PR; n=85) and non-pocket-related (non-PR; n=12) infections according to the pathogenic pathway. The main causative pathogen in SI was Staphylococcus aureus, whereas coagulase-negative staphylococci were mainly related to LI. Both SI and LI peaked in the first year after implantation and then decreased gradually. There was no significant microbiological difference between PR and non-PR infections. PR infections showed the same temporal distribution as the overall cohort. However, non-PR infections exhibited a uniform temporal distribution after the first year. Conclusions: The severity of CIED infections depends on the causative pathogen, whereas their temporal distribution is affected by the microbiological intrusion pathway.

    BACKGROUND: Postoperative pain management in thoracotomy patients often is difficult. Furthermore, pediatric patients present more challenges because of their inability to effectively communicate their pain intensity. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of continuous field block through intercostal muscles as postoperative pain management in pediatric thoracotomy. METHODS: Between 2014 and 2018, 11 patients underwent an ASD closure using a cardiopulmonary bypass via a mini-right thoracotomy through the fourth intercostal space. At the time of chest closure, a single-shot field block via the fourth intercostal muscles was performed with levobupivacaine (0.6 mg/kg). The first five patients were only given the single-shot field block (Single group). The remaining six patients were given levobupivacaine continuously (0.1 mg/kg/hr) through an indwelling catheter until the chest tube removal (Continuous group). The groups' vital signs, total amounts of acetaminophen used, postoperative courses were compared. RESULTS: Although the heart rate did not differ between the groups, the respiratory rate was significantly higher in the Single group versus the Continuous group at 16 and 32 hr post-surgery (35.6 ± 9.7/min vs. 18.5 ± 4.7/min; p=0.007, 43.0 ± 10.4 vs. 25.3 ± 3.1; p=0.042, respectively). The accumulated dosage of acetaminophen given by postoperative day 2 was significantly higher in the Single group versus the Continuous group (55.3 ± 22.1 mg/kg vs. 7.8 ± 17.4 mg/kg; p=0.012). CONCLUSIONS: Continuous field block via intercostal muscles after ASD closure via a mini-right thoracotomy in children was effective to stabilize the vital signs and reduce the analgesic medication use.

    OBJECTIVE: Apicoaortic bypass has double outlets and its graft design is similar to that of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD). The left ventricular apex to the descending aorta (LV-DsAo) bypass is widely used in apicoaortic bypass. In contrast, the left ventricular apex to the ascending aorta (LV-AsAo) bypass is standard in LVAD surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the graft designs of apicoaortic bypass and their effects on flow distribution and energy loss (EL). METHODS: A simulation study using computational fluid dynamics was performed on the geometry and hemodynamics data obtained from a 30-year-old patient who underwent a LV-DsAo bypass. The ratio of the cardiac output (CO) through the ascending aorta (AsAo) and apicoaortic conduit was set at 50:50, 30:70, and 10:90. Regional blood flow (RBF) and EL were calculated for the different distribution ratios. As an alternative to the LV-DsAo bypass, a virtual LV-AsAo bypass surgery was performed, and each parameter was compared with that of the LV-DsAo bypass. RESULTS: At a distribution ratio of 50:50, the RBF to the head and EL were 16.4% of the total CO and 62.0 mW in the LV-DsAo bypass, and 32.3% and 81.5 mW in the LV-AsAo bypass, respectively. The RBF to the head decreased with the CO through the AsAo in the LV-DsAo bypass, but it was constant in the LV-AsAo bypass. The EL increased inversely with the CO through the AsAo in both graft designs. CONCLUSION: The regional blood flow distribution was different, but the trend of the EL which increased inversely with the CO through the AsAo was similar between the LV-DsAo and LV-AsAo bypasses.

    Delayed vascular injury (DVI) with a hemodialysis catheter is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication. However, the appropriate treatment for DVI has not yet been established. A 44-year-old man underwent placement of a hemodialysis catheter via the left internal jugular vein, and the first leukapheresis procedure was performed without complications. However, 3 days after the insertion of the hemodialysis catheter, the patient developed sudden dyspnea. Chest radiographs and contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed that the catheter tip had migrated and was located outside the left brachiocephalic vein. DVI with catheter migration was diagnosed. To perform safe and reliable hemostasis, we successfully performed transvenous balloon-assisted tract embolization with n-butyl cyanoacrylate and the catheter was removed. To our knowledge, there has been no previous report of the treatment of balloon-assisted tract embolization with n-butyl cyanoacrylate for DVI caused by a hemodialysis catheter. Our treatment approach may be safe and effective for DVI.

    BACKGROUND: There have been a few cases of echogenic cardiac implantable electric device (CIED) lead-associated oscillating intracardiac masses (ICMs) in leads imaged by echocardiography. The histological properties of ICMs could help clarify the etiological diagnosis. Although there is extensive literature on mass size, the histological properties of such masses have not been characterized. The aim of this research was to clarify the histological features of oscillating ICMs in CIED patients. METHODS: Preoperative echocardiography was performed in all candidates for CIED removal. In the patients with ICMs, specimens were obtained by 3 methods: direct tissue collection during open-heart surgery; tissue collection together with the CIED lead during transvenous extraction; and tissue collection by catheter vacuum during transvenous CIED removal. A standard histopathological examination of ICM tissue was performed. RESULTS: A total of 106 patients underwent lead removal in our institute (April 2009-March 2018); 14 patients had an ICM (13.2%), and 7 specimens were obtained in patients with CIED lead-related ICM. Following histological examination, 2 types of ICM were identified: one mainly composed of thickened endocardium (EN type; 3 patients), and the other mainly an aggregate of inflammatory cells as a neutrophil cell (NC type; 4 patients). CONCLUSIONS: Two histological types of intracardiac masses, including a thickened endocardium type and a neutrophil cell type, were identified. These classifications might help make an accurate histological diagnosis of lead-associated intracardiac masses.

    OBJECTIVES: Cardiomyocytes derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells are a promising source of cells for regenerative medicine. However, contractions in such derived cardiomyocytes are often irregular and asynchronous, especially at early stages of differentiation. This study aimed to determine the differentiation stage of initiation of synchronized and regular contractions, using spatiotemporal imaging and physiological and genetic analyses. METHODS: Knock-in human induced pluripotent stem cell lines were established with clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats-associated protein 9 to analyze cardiac and pacemaker cell maturation. Time-frequency analysis and Ca2+ imaging were performed, and the expression of related proteins and specific cardiac/pacemaker mRNAs in contracting embryoid bodies was analyzed at various differentiation stages. RESULTS: Time-frequency analysis and Ca2+ imaging revealed irregular, asynchronous contractions at the early stage of differentiation with altered electrophysiological properties upon differentiation. Genes associated with electrophysiological properties were upregulated after 70 days of culturing in differentiation media, whereas pacemaker genes were initially upregulated during the early stage and downregulated at the later stage. CONCLUSIONS: A differentiation period >70 days is required for adequate development of cardiac elements including ion channels and gap junctions and for sarcomere maturation.

    PURPOSES: To retrospectively evaluate the effect of negative-pressure sternal wound closure (NPSWC) with a subcutaneous closed drain tube on the sternal surgical site infection (SSI) incidence. METHODS: After propensity score matching of 231 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), we compared 104 pairs in the NPSWC and historical control groups. In the molecular analysis, the interleukin-6 (IL-6), basic fibroblast growth factor (b-FGF), and transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) levels in the wound fluid were measured using two different reservoir types at postoperative days 2 and 7. RESULTS: NPSWC significantly reduced the SSI incidence from 10.6 to 2.9%. No mediastinitis occurred in the NPSWC group. A multivariate logistic regression analysis identified female sex (p = 0.0040) and no NPSWC (p = 0.0084) as significant risk factors for sternal SSI development. The Negative-pressure value was 49.4 ± 4.1 and 115.5 ± 15.2 mmHg in the standard-type (SSR) and bulb-type suction reservoirs (BSR), respectively. Given that growth factors were affected by the difference in negative pressure, the IL-6, b-FGF, and TGF-β1 levels were significantly higher in the BSR than in the SSR. CONCLUSIONS: NPSWC using a subcutaneous closed drain tube was effective in preventing sternal SSI after CABG and may accelerate wound healing even when both internal thoracic arteries are harvested.

    BACKGROUND: Complete tumor resection is a standard strategy in the surgical treatment of ventricular tachycardia (VT) associated with cardiac tumors. Recently, an intraoperative electroanatomic mapping system (CARTO) has enabled surgeons to target the localized arrhythmogenic substrate for partial resection and/or cryoablation in nonresectable cardiac tumors. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the surgical procedures and late outcomes of the treatment of VT associated with cardiac tumors. METHODS: We examined six patients (age 1-65 years) who had undergone surgical treatment of VT associated with cardiac tumors between 2010 and 2016. The 4 pathologies of the cardiac tumors were lipoma 2, fibroma 2, hemangioma 1, and lymphoma 1. Intraoperative epicardial mapping using CARTO was performed in 5 patients(80%). Surgical procedures and long-term outcomes were evaluated. RESULTS: Arrhythmogenic substrates with abnormal electrograms, such as fractionated or late potential, were identified locally or circumferentially beside the tumor in every patient. Complete tumor resection with cryoablation was performed in 3 patients. Two patients underwent partial tumor resection with cryoablation. Cryoablation without tumor resection was performed in 1 patient. No mortality and morbidity occurred. Additional catheter ablation was required in 2 patients to treat occurrence of nonclinical VT and induction of clinical VT during hospital stay. Mean follow-up time was 90 ± 52.5 months. There was no recurrence of clinical VT. CONCLUSION: The outcomes of surgical treatment of VT associated with cardiac tumors were excellent. Intraoperative CARTO mapping was beneficial to eliminate the VT substrates associated with nonresectable cardiac tumors.

    PURPOSE: We examined the outcome of modified-maze procedures reflecting a single-center strategy in the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) associated with atrial septal defect (ASD) in adults. METHODS: A retrospective chart review was performed for 29 patients who underwent surgical ASD closure and 2 types of maze procedures (full and simplified maze procedures) for AF. The outcome related to the each procedure was examined. A Cox proportional hazards analysis was performed to assess the independent predictors of AF and atrial tachycardia (AT) recurrence. RESULTS: The rates of freedom from AF and AT recurrence at 1 and 4 years were 86.6% and 72.2% in the full maze group and 78.5% and 62.8% in the simplified maze group, respectively (p = 0.70). The only risk factor for recurrence was the age at the time of surgery. A receiver operating characteristic curve analysis gave an optimum cut-off value of 58 years of age for predicting recurrence within 2 years (58.4% for ≥ 58 years versus 5.9% for < 58 years, p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS: Simplification of the maze procedure was not associated with AF or AT recurrence. The age at the time of surgery might be a clinical predictor of success or failure in adult patients.

    BACKGROUND: Surgery for infective endocarditis involving the aorto-mitral curtain (AMC) is challenging and requires extensive incisions and complex reconstruction procedures. However, in patients with preserved aortic annulus, reconstruction of the AMC is possible using a simple technique with limited incisions. CASE PRESENTATION: A handmade bovine three-portion pericardial patch was used to reconstruct the AMC in a patient with severe endocarditis requiring double valve replacement; the technique allowed for steady anchorage of prosthetic valves without additional incisions other than conventional aortotomy and atriotomy. Postoperative echocardiography revealed normal cardiac function and no significant perivalvular leakage. The patient displayed complete recovery and was discharged on postoperative day 33. The patient was symptom-free at his 1-year follow-up and displayed normal laboratory and echocardiographic findings. CONCLUSION: The bovine three-portion pericardial patch is useful for reconstructing the AMC in patients with infective endocarditis accompanied by preserved aortic annulus.

    Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) contains numerous growth factors and promotes bone fracture healing. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the controlled release of PRP from biodegradable gelatin hydrogel for promoting healing in a rabbit ischemic sternal model. PRP was prepared from the whole blood of a Japanese white rabbit. Sixteen rabbits were randomized into four groups (each n = 4) and all underwent median sternotomy and bilateral internal thoracic artery removal. Before the sternum was closed, the following solutions were applied between the sternum incisions in three of the groups: 30 mg of gelatin hydrogel incorporating 300 μL of phosphate-buffered saline, 300 μL of a solution form of PRP, or 30 mg of gelatin hydrogel incorporating 300 μL of PRP (PRP + Gel). The fourth group acted as a control. Sternal healing was evaluated by histology and microcomputed tomography 7 days after the intervention. The PRP + Gel group showed a significantly higher proportion of fibrosis within the fracture area (an indicator of sternal healing) than the other groups and a significantly higher mean intensity of osteocalcin. These results indicate that the controlled release of PRP from locally applied gelatin hydrogel was markedly effective in enhancing sternal healing in the early postoperative period. This novel therapy could potentially help prevent complications, such as deep sternal wound infection and could result in early postoperative ambulation after median sternotomy.

    72歳男性.僧帽弁逆流に合併した発作性心房細動に対して心表面マッピングを行った1例を経験した.10年前よりの僧帽弁閉鎖不全症で発作性心房細動と心不全を繰り返すようになった.心電図では洞調律,左室拡大を認め,心臓カテーテル検査・超音波検査では僧帽弁逆流,僧帽弁後尖逸脱,左房拡大を認め,冠動脈左前下行枝,高位側枝の狭窄を認めた.胸骨正中切開で左右胸動脈剥離後,心表面マッピングを施行した.心房burst pacingで心房細動を誘発し,256チャンネルマッピングシステムで記録を行い,コンピューター処理後3次元表示の心房モデル上に動画表示した.マッピング所見では左右の上肺静脈の電気的隔離のみで治癒すると考えられたが,Radial手術を選択し,さらに僧帽弁形成術,冠動脈バイパス術を行った.術後発作性心房細動は認めず洞調律が維持された.マップガイド下心房細動手術は多くの利点を有するが,問題点も残されており,心房細動の電気生理学的機序が解明されることで,その根治性が確立されると思われた

    A major problem in myocardial regenerative medicine is the low engraftment rate and survival rate of transplanted cells. The solution is to improve the external environment of the transplanted cells. Cells live within the extracellular matrix (ECM), and with the development of tissue engineering, many artificial ECMs have been developed. In this experiment, cardiomyocytes are cultured on artificial ECM, cardiomyocyte ECM grafts are prepared, and transplanted onto the surface of injured myocardium. The ECM graft also has physical strength and is responsible for mechanical reinforcement. The transplanted cardiomyocytes can then reconstruct the myocardial excitatory propagation impaired in the injured myocardium. Cardiomyocyte ECM graft transplantation is expected to contribute to the improvement of cell transplantation methods, as the application of useful base materials for cell transplantation is also considered in the field of myocardial regenerative medicine.

    An experimental comparison between the radiofrequency ablation and cryothermia with respect to transmural and continuous linear ablation has demonstrated that cryothermia requires a longer time to create transmural necrosis compared to radiofrequecy ablation, cryothermia is suitable for a limited area, such as atrioventricular valve annuli or the coronary sinus, confirmation of intramural necrosis is essential in the linear cryothermia of the atrial free wall, and observation only from epicardium may not be sufficient because endocardium may not be fully-ablated because of radiator effect of warm blood.

  • Gap Junction Remodeling and Arrhythmogenesis in Ischemic Heart

    In Japan sudden cardiac death is common in patients who have survived myocardial infarction. Also many patients who have cardiac dysfunction have the high risk of sudden arrhythmic death. But the molecular mechanisms responsible for the lethal arrhythmia in such patients have not defined yet In order to gain insights about the role of critical arrhythmia we created the ischemia model in mice heterozygous for a major gap junction protein Cx43 null allele and wild type. The structural consequences following myocardial infarction (MI) were examined by echocardiography and histopathological study. Although post-infarction remodeling was not affected by diminished Cx43 expression in cardiac gap junctions, infarct size was smaller it C×43-deficient (C×43+/-) mice compared with wild type (C×43+/+). Implanted telemetry system revealed spontaneous ventricular arrhythmias occurred only in C×43+/-mice with infarction. Isolated hearts with healed myocardial infarction were analyzed by the arrhythmia induction study. Ventricular tachycardia was induced in both Cx43+/-and +/+ hearts with MI. But the inducibility of ventricular arrhythmia was higher in C×43+/-in acute phase in mice with ischemia. Interestingly the electrica recovery was rather quick compared with morphological wound healing. Reduced basal coupling was observed as the distribution of Cx43 in gap junction channel which was visualized by immunohistochemical study. Gap junction remodeling was considered as an essential factor of arrhythmogenesis in heart with ischemic injury. Perioperative patients in human cardiac surgery are considered as being in the similar condition of these ischemic model. Analysis of arrhythmias following MI in mouse lines with defined genetic defects will shed light on the roles of these proteins in sudden cardiac death in patients with healed MI or post operative patients. Alterations in cell-cell communication occur as a fundamental response to myocyte injury which contributes to arrhythmogenesis. Human disease models in genetically altered mice are invaluable for mechanistic understanding of sudder cardiac death and to prevent it at its source instead of terminating a lethal arrhythmia once it occurred.

  • Mechanism of Atrial Fibrillation Induced in the Left Atrial Volume-load Model

    A new experimental model for atrial fibrillation was established and serial changes in the left atrial volume and atrial electrophysiologies were examined in 10 mongrel canines. The canines underwent a left subclavian artery to pulmonary artery shunt surgery through a left thoracotomy. Left atrial rapid pacing at a cycle length of 100 ma was started 1 week after the shunt surgery.
    All the animals exhibited progressive dilatation of the left atrium and developed severe heart failure. Three of 10 died in the early postoperative days and 1 developed pacing failure. Remaining 6 animals were subjected to the analysis.
    A brief period of repetitive activations were observed after a temporal suspension of the rapid pacing one week after the pacing. The duration of repetitive activation prolonged over time and all the animals developed persistent atrial fibrillation (>10 minutes) 4 weeks after the pacing. Atrial fibrillation intervals recorded at both atrial appendages were progressively shortened and the interval in the left atrial appendage was always shorter than at the right appendage. Epicardial mapping of the persistent atrial fibrillation revealed concurrent repetitive activations arising from the right and left superior pulmonary veins that conducted toward the right atrium with progressive conduction delay.
    A volume load of the LA may provoke repetitive activations in the pulmonary veins and electrical remodeling of the atrial myocardium, and further facilitate the perpetuation of atrial fibrillation. This clinically relevant model of persistent AF associated with a Volume-loaded LA would be useful in examining the electrophysiology of AF and the effects of non-pharmacological therapies.
