Abstract：
BACKGROUND/AIM:Chest radiotherapy (RT) doubles late cardiac mortality. This study aimed to evaluate the evolution of cardiac changes in speckle tracking echocardiography during a three-year follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS:This prospective study included 81 chemotherapy-naïve early-stage breast cancer patients who were evaluated at baseline, immediately after RT and three years after RT. Sixty-one patients had left-sided (LSBC) and 20 right-sided breast cancer (RSBC). RESULTS:Global longitudinal strain (GLS) declined from baseline -18.0±3.3% to -17.0±3.0% (p=0.015) at the three-year follow-up examination. A decline over 15% (GLS15) was observed in 19 (27%) patients. GLS15 was independently associated with aromatase inhibitor use (β=-1.977, p=0.001). In regional analysis, patients with LSBC had apical strain decline by 3.2±5.5% (p<0.001) and patients with RSBC showed basal rotation decline by 1.8° (-0.2°, 3.8°) (p=0.030). CONCLUSION:Even contemporary RT induced progressive global and regional decline in speckle tracking analysis. The regional changes complied with RT fields.
