BACKGROUND: The mitral L-wave, a prominent mid-diastolic filling wave in echocardiographic examinations, is associated with severe left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. The relationship between the mitral L-wave and outcome of catheter ablation (CA) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) has not been established. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of mitral L-waves on AF recurrence after CA. METHODS: This was a retrospective and observational study in a single center. One hundred forty-six patients (mean age; 63.9 [56.0-72.0] years, 71.9% male) including 66 non-paroxysmal AF patients (45.2%) who received a first CA were enrolled. The mitral L-waves were defined as a distinct mid-diastolic flow velocity with a peak velocity ≥20 cm/s following the E wave in the echocardiographic examinations before CA. The patients enrolled were divided into groups with (n = 31, 21.2%) and without (n = 115, 78.8%) mitral L-waves. Univariate and multivariate analyses were carried out to determine the predictive factors of late recurrences of AF (LRAFs), which meant AF recurrence later than 3 months after the CA. RESULTS: During a follow-up of 28.8 (15.0-35.8) months, the ratio of LRAFs in patients with mitral L-waves was significantly higher than that in those without mitral L-waves (15 [46.9%] vs. 16 [14.0%], p < .001). A multivariate analysis using a Cox proportional hazard model revealed that the mitral L-waves were a significant predictive factor of LRAFs (hazard ratio: 3.09, 95% confidence interval: 1.53-6.24, p = .002). CONCLUSION: The appearance of mitral L-waves could predict LRAFs after CA.
