概要	Background: Both the left atrial volume index (LAVI) and estimated total atrial conduction time measured using tissue Doppler imaging of the atria (PA–TDI duration) are echocardiographic parameters reflecting atrial remodeling. We investigated their prognostic value for atrial tachyarrhythmia (ATA) recurrence after radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) of atrial fibrillation (AF).Methods and Results: We analyzed the data from 129 consecutive patients who underwent preprocedural transthoracic echocardiography in sinus rhythm and RFCA for AF. At a mean of 29±10 months after single sessions, 52 (40%) patients had ATA recurrences. The patients with ATA recurrences had a larger LAVI (p=0.014) and longer PA–TDI (p=0.007) than those without recurrences. Although the predictive accuracy of the LAVI cut-off value (≥35.1ml/m²) and PA–TDI (≥145.2ms) predicting a recurrence after RFCA estimated by an ROC curve were relatively low (AUC 0.63 and 0.64, respectively), the combined index (LAVI≥35.1ml/m² and PA–TDI≥145.2ms) was the only independent predictor of recurrence after a single RFCA (HR 2.9, 95%CI 1.55–5.33, p=0.0011) in the multivariate Cox regression analysis. Although 29 patients (30%) required repeat procedures, 95 (97%) of 98 patients not falling into a combined index were free from any ATAs without antiarrhythmic drugs at a mean of 26±11 months.Conclusion: Atrial remodeling was a useful predictor of recurrence following ablation procedure in patients with AF.
