Abstract

Objective: We sought to assess mitral annular (MA) size and function in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) using real-time 3-dimensional (3D) echocardiography (RT3DE). Methods: The study included 30 patients with HCM, 20 patients with DCM, and 30 control subjects. RT3DE measurements included end-systolic and end-diastolic MA area (MAA) (MAA_3D), MA diameter_3D, MA fractional area change (MAFAC), and MA fractional shortening. In subgroup of 50 patients, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used for MAA_MRI and MA diameter_MRI measurement. Results: End-diastolic MAA_3D was larger in HCM than in control group (P < .0001). Higher MAFAC and MA fractional shortening were present in HCM than in control group (P = .001 and P = .006, respectively). End-systolic and end-diastolic MAA_3D in DCM were higher than in HCM and control groups (P < .0001). Lower MAFAC and MA fractional shortening were present in DCM than in HCM and control groups (P < .0001). MAFAC correlated well with left ventricular function in control subjects (r = 0.94, P < .0001), whereas correlation was less in DCM (r = 0.53, P = .02) and HCM (r = 0.42, P < .01). RT3DE and MRI measurements were comparable. Conclusion: RT3DE assessment of MA size and function in control subjects and patients with cardiomyopathy is accurate and well correlated with MRI.
