Abstract

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between the cardiac and hepatic iron-overload as assessed by magnetic resonance imaging t2 star (MRIT2-star) technique and serum ferritin level in patients with THALASSEMIA major.Methods: In this cross-sectional study we evaluated 170 patients in Sayed Shohada Hospital in Isfahan in the year of 2009, cardiac and HEPATIC IRON-OVERLOADED values were calculated in patients using magnetic resonance imaging t2 star techniques. Serum ferritin level and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were determined for all patients.Findings: We studied 170 beta-thalassemic patients, 90 (52.9%) females and 80 (47.1%) males, mean age 20.6±6.2 years. Mean cardiac iron-overloaded was 22.7±14.7, mean HEPATIC IRON-OVERLOADED was 3.2±2.4, mean serum ferritin level was 2310±1554 and mean left ventricular ejection fraction was 60.5%±7.7 percent. Pearson’s tests gave a significant correlation coefficient between cardiac iron-overloaded and HEPATIC IRON-OVERLOADED (r=0.29, P<0.001). There were weak inversely associated between serum ferritin level with hepatic iron (r=-0.32, P<0.001) and cardiac iron (r=-0.21, P=0.006).Conclusion: Myocardial iron deposition can be reproducibly quantified using myocardial T2 *and this is the most significant variable for predicting the need for ventricular dysfunction treatment. The finding of this study demonstrated a significant correlation between cardiac and HEPATIC IRON-OVERLOADED level in patients with THALASSEMIA major.
