[Relations between the site of significant monotruncular coronary stenosis and left ventricular function. Therapeutic implications].
The indications of coronary bypass surgery in single vessel disease remain controversial. Therefore, we carried out a retrospective study of the coronary angiogrammes and left ventriculography of 93 patients with single vessel disease (greater than 70 p. 100 stenosis) involving the left anterior descending (LAD) or dominant right coronary arteries (RCA) to evaluate the quantity of myocardium at risk. Five angio-hemodynamic parameters were compared: the ejection fraction (EF), the ratio of end systolic left ventricular pressure to volume (LVESP/LVESV), the velocity of circumferential fibre shortening (VCF), end diastolic volume (EDV) and end systolic volume (ESV). Six subgroups were defined: 28 proximal LAD stenosis (16 without and 12 with myocardial infarction (MI], 37 mid LAD stenosis (20 without and 17 with MI), and 28 RCA stenosis (8 without and 20 with MI). In all, there were 44 single vessel stenoses without MI and 49 with previous necrosis. Left ventricular function was normal in the absence of MI but deteriorated progressively in cases with MI and LAD disease. In cases of proximal LAD stenosis without and with MI, the hemodynamics showed: EF (p. 100) = 67,12 +/- 2,07 leads to 43,83 +/- 4,7 (p less than 0,001); LVESP/LVESV = 3,24 +/- 0,34 leads to 1,92 +/- 0,50 (p less than 0,05); VCF (s-1) = 1,28 +/- 0,05 leads to 0,74 +/- 0,06 (p less than 0,001); in cases of mid LAD stenosis without and with MI: EF = 69,1 +/- 2,08 leads to 45,11 +/- 3,42 (p less than 0,001); LVESP/LVESV = 3,64 +/- 0,39 leads to 1,46 +/- 0,12 (p less than 0,001); VCF = 1,32 +/- 0,008 leads to 0,74 +/- 0,06 (p less than 0,001). In contrast the change in LV function was minimal in patients with necrosis and RCA stenosis: EF = 70,37 +/- 3,85 leads to 56,4 +/- 3,19 (p less than 0,05); LVESP/LVESV = 5,20 +/- 1,83 leads to 2,56 +/- 0,36 (p less than 0,05); VCF less than 1,42 +/- 0,17 leads to 1,03 +/- 0,08 (p less than 0,05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
