Overview
Brief Summary
Longitudinal analysis of myocardial function using "Speckle Tracking Echocardiography" STE analysis and prediction of delayed toxic induced cardiomyopathy in young patients who received anthracycline therapy in childhood.
Detailed Description
Anthracycline therapy may have short-, medium- or long-term cardiac toxicity that impacts patient's life. The main recognized risk factors for delayed cardiotoxicity are cumulative anthracycline dose, female gender, association with mediastinal radiotherapy and young age at administration. Prediction of delayed cardiotoxicity in children population is still challenging. The "Speckle Tracking Echocardiography" (STE) method, an innovative echocardiographic technique, analyses the myocardial displacement of natural acoustic markers via a software. The objective of the study is to analyze, in young patients who received anthracycline therapy in childhood, 5-years after their inclusion in the "Speckle Anthra" study and first STE results, the evolution of myocardial function using STE method.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Left Ventricle Global Longitudinal 2D strain (LVGLS) expressed in percentage and obtained from cardiac ultrasound cineloop of 2D 4,3 and 2 apical views analyzed by the Tomtec STE Software.
Time Frame: 5 years
To compare the evolution at 5 years ("Anthra2" study timeframe) of LVGLS obtained by STE analysis on patients treated with anthracyclines in childhood and previously included in first "Speckle Anthra" study, with the normal evolution of this parameter with age in healthy matched volunteers.
Secondary Outcomes
- Left Ventricle Ejection fraction (LVEF) by Simpson method (%)(The day of inclusion)
- Left ventricular myocardial dysfunction defined by LVEF < 55%(5 years)
- Death secondary to toxic cardiomyopathy(5 years)
