Evaluation of left atrial remodeling using cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging in breast cancer patients treated with adjuvant trastuzumab

CONCLUSIONS: Among trastuzumab-treated patients with low incidence of TIC, we observed a small but significant decline in LAEF and increase in LAmin that persisted for the duration of therapy and recovered 6 months after therapy cessation. These findings suggest that trastuzumab has concurrent detrimental effects on atrial and ventricular remodeling.
