Background. right ventricular (rv) dysfunction during cancer therapy related cardiotoxicity and its prognostic implications have not been examined. aim. we sought to determine the incidence and prognostic value of rv dysfunction at time of lv defined cardiotoxicity. methods. we retrospectively identified 30 her2+ female patients with breast cancer treated with trastuzumab (± anthracycline) who developed cardiotoxicity and had a diagnostic quality transthoracic echocardiography. lv ejection fraction (lvef),rv fractional area change (rv fac),and peak systolic longitudinal strain (for both lv and rv) were measured on echocardiograms at the time of cardiotoxicity and during follow-up. thirty age balanced precancer therapy and her2+ breast cancer patients were used as controls. results. in the 30 patients with cardiotoxicity (mean ± sd age 54 ± 12 years) rv fac was significantly lower (42 ± 7 versus 47 ± 6%,p=0.01) compared to controls. rv dysfunction defined by global longitudinal strain (gls < -20.3%) was seen in 40% (n=12). during follow-up in 16 out of 30 patients (23 ± 15 months),there was persistent lv dysfunction (ef < 55%) in 69% (n=11). concomitant rv dysfunction at the time of lv cardiotoxicity was associated with reduced recovery of lvef during follow-up although this was not statistically significant. conclusion. rv dysfunction at the time of lv cardiotoxicity is frequent in patients with breast cancer receiving trastuzumab therapy. despite appropriate management,lv dysfunction persisted in the majority at follow-up. the prognostic value of rv dysfunction at the time of cardiotoxicity warrants further investigation. © 2015 anna calleja et al.
