Combination of Intracardiac Echocardiography and Contact Force Sensing for Left Ventricular Papillary Muscle Arrhythmias. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12093154. [PMID: 37176594 PMCID: PMC10179325 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12093154] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Revised: 04/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The catheter ablation of ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) arising from the left ventricular (LV) papillary muscles (PMs) is challenging. This study sought to address whether the combination of intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) and contact force sensing (CFS) can improve the acute and long-term ablation outcomes of left ventricular papillary muscle arrhythmias. METHODS AND RESULTS From May 2015 to August 2022, a total of thirty-three patients underwent catheter ablation for LV PM arrhythmias: VAs were located in anterolateral PMs in 11 and posteromedial PMs in 22. A combination of intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) and contact force sensing (CFS) was used in 21 of the 33 procedures. A mean of 6.93 ± 4.91 for lesions was used per patient, comparable between the CFS/ICE and no ICE/CFS (4.90 ± 2.23 vs. 10.17 ± 5.89; p = 0.011). The mean CF achieved in the ICE/CFS group was 7.52 ± 3.31 g. Less X-ray time was used in the combination group (CFS/ICE: 165.67 ± 47.80 S vs. no ICE/CFS: 365.00 ± 183.73 S; p < 0.001). An acute success rate of 100% was achieved for the ICE/CFS group (n = 22) and 66.67% for the no ICE/CFS group (n = 8). VA recurrence at the 11.21 ± 7.21-month follow-up was 14.2% for the ICE/CFS group and 50% for the no ICE/CFS group (p = 0.04). No severe complications occurred in all patients. CONCLUSIONS The combination of intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) and contact force sensing (CFS) could provide precise geometries of cardiac endocavitary structures and accurate contact information for the catheter during ablation, which improved acute and long-term ablation outcomes. The routine adoption of this strategy should be considered to improve the outcomes of LV PM VA ablation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With an increased number of surgical procedures involving the mitral annular region, the risk of mitral valve prolapse (MVP) has also increased. Previous studies have reported that worsening of MVP occurred early after radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) at papillary muscles in ventricular tachycardia (VT) patients with preoperative MVP.
CASE SUMMARY We report a case where MVP and papillary muscle rupture occurred 2 wk after RFCA in a papillary muscle originated VT patient without mitral valve regurgitation or prolapse before. The patient then underwent mitral valve replacement with no premature ventricular contraction or VT. During the surgery, a papillary muscle rupture was identified. Pathological examination showed necrosis of the papillary muscle. The patient recovered after mitral valve replacement.
CONCLUSION Too many ablation procedures and energy should be avoided.

The effect of catheter ablation for ventricular arrhythmias originating from the left ventricular papillary muscles on mitral valve function. J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol 2021; 32:1931-1936. [PMID: 33993577 DOI: 10.1111/jce.15104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2021] [Revised: 04/08/2021] [Accepted: 04/19/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ablation of ventricular arrhythmias (VA) originating from the left ventricular (LV) papillary muscles (PM) has the potential to damage the mitral valve apparatus resulting in mitral regurgitation (MR). This study sought to evaluate the effect of radiofrequency (RF) ablation of a PM on MR severity. METHODS Patients with pre- and postablation transthoracic echocardiograms who underwent PM ablation for treatment of VA were retrospectively identified and compared to similar patients who underwent VA ablation at non-PM sites. MR severity was evaluated pre- and postablation in both groups and graded as none/trace (Grade 0); mild/mild-to-moderate (Grade 1); moderate (Grade 2); moderate-to-severe/severe (Grade 3). RESULTS A total of 45 and 49 patients were included in the PM and non-PM groups, respectively. There were no significant baseline demographic differences. The PM group had longer RF ablation times (22.3 vs. 13.3 min, p < .01) compared to the non-PM group. Most patients had low-grade MR in both groups at baseline. Change in pre- versus postablation MR within the PM group was not statistically significant by Wilcoxon rank-sum test (Figure 2, p = .46). MR severity following ablation was also evaluated using logistic regression models. The odds ratio for worsening MR in the PM group compared to non-PM was 0.19 (95% confidence interval: 0.008-4.18, p = .29) after adjusting for comorbidities, LV ejection fraction, and LV internal end-diastolic diameter. CONCLUSION RF ablation of VA originating from PM under intracardiac echocardiography guidance did not result in clinically or statistically significant worsening of MR.

Abstract
Ventricular arrhythmias are an important cause of morbidity and mortality and come in a variety of forms, from single premature ventricular complexes to sustained ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation. Rapid developments have taken place over the past decade in our understanding of these arrhythmias and in our ability to diagnose and treat them. The field of catheter ablation has progressed with the development of new methods and tools, and with the publication of large clinical trials. Therefore, global cardiac electrophysiology professional societies undertook to outline recommendations and best practices for these procedures in a document that will update and replace the 2009 EHRA/HRS Expert Consensus on Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Arrhythmias. An expert writing group, after reviewing and discussing the literature, including a systematic review and meta-analysis published in conjunction with this document, and drawing on their own experience, drafted and voted on recommendations and summarized current knowledge and practice in the field. Each recommendation is presented in knowledge byte format and is accompanied by supportive text and references. Further sections provide a practical synopsis of the various techniques and of the specific ventricular arrhythmia sites and substrates encountered in the electrophysiology lab. The purpose of this document is to help electrophysiologists around the world to appropriately select patients for catheter ablation, to perform procedures in a safe and efficacious manner, and to provide follow-up and adjunctive care in order to obtain the best possible outcomes for patients with ventricular arrhythmias.

Abstract
Ventricular arrhythmias originating from the papillary muscle of the left or right ventricle are specific clinical entities. They are usually focal in origin and can be identified by a characteristic ECG pattern. Intracardiac echocardiography appears to be the most suitable imaging method for assessment of the exact location of the focus at papillary muscles in association with activation mapping. We recently confirmed that ectopic foci were located within the distal, mid, or proximal (basal) third of the papillary muscle in 67%, 19%, and 14% of patients, respectively. Radiofrequency ablation has the potential to cure these specific arrhythmias. However, the procedure is usually challenging for catheter instability, despite navigation with intracardiac echocardiography. Cryoablation, which ensures catheter tip stability, could be a viable alternative in cases of the failure of radiofrequency catheter ablation.

Abstract
The discovery, characterization, and ablation of the papillary muscles have evolved rapidly since the initial description in 2008. New innovations in pacemapping, intracardiac imaging, ablation catheters, and ablation methodologies have dramatically impacted the approach to the treatment of papillary muscle ventricular arrhythmias. This review provides an up-to-date summary of these methods, as well as guidance on how to integrate them into clinical practice.
