“…This method has been used to demonstrate macroscopic areas of fibrosis in several different CHD subgroups, including TOF (53%), 71 systemic RV (61%), 72 Eisenmenger syndrome (73%), 73 and Fontan palliation (26%). 74 Collectively, these studies demonstrate that the presence of LGE is associated with poorer functional class, lower ventricular systolic function, reduced exercise capacity, and arrhythmia, although the quantity of enhancement is often small and sparse (apart from less common large subendocardial infarcts or surgical scars).…”
