AMAntonella MeloniLPLaura PistoiaMZMichela Zerbini

Key Points

  • Left ventricular wall motion abnormalities are significantly present in transfusion-dependent thalassemia patients, indicating potential cardiac risks.
  • Key evidence shows that 64% of the participants exhibited abnormalities in wall motion based on cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging.
  • Observational analysis utilizing cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging was conducted to assess myocardial function in patients.
  • Highlighting the need for regular cardiac assessment in thalassemia, as management may improve cardiovascular health.
