The main findings of our study were as follows: (1) as distinct from previous studies, the novel finding was that CS diameter was significantly increased only in patients with moderate to severe PH; (2) CS diameter was correlated with RA area, PASP, RAP, and both RV systolic (FAC, Sm wave) and diastolic parameters (E/A ratio, DT, E/Em ratio); (3) multivariate analysis determined that RA area and PASP were independent predictors of CS diameter.</p><p id="par0085" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The CS is a venous structure located in the posterior groove between the LA and LV. It begins as a continuation of the great cardiac vein and opens into the RA between the IVC and the atrioventricular groove. Its branches include the great, small and middle cardiac veins, as well as the posterior vein of the LV. Although it is easy to visualize, assessment of the CS has been overlooked in routine echocardiographic examination. In patients with CHF, Yuce et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0145"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> demonstrated that CS dilatation may be a part of the cardiac remodeling process, predicting the severity of chronic heart failure and poor functional capacity. Lee et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0195"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">14</span></a> found a significant correlation between CS diameter and PASP in a study of patients referred for cardiac resynchronization therapy. There have been few studies investigating the association between CS size and PASP in patients with PH according to our literature search. Mahmud et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0200"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">15</span></a> reported a positive correlation of CS diameter with RA size and RA pressure in patients who underwent echocardiography and right heart catheterization. In a similar population, Isaacs et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0205"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">16</span></a> investigated the relationship between CS dilatation and pulmonary artery (PA) pressures using chest computed tomography (CT). Right heart catheterization was also performed to obtain right-sided pressures in the study population. They reported that CS dilation was associated with increased PA pressures in patients with PH. Gunes et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0140"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> reported that CS diameter was increased in patients with PH and significantly correlated with PASP, RAP, right-heart chamber volumes, LVEF, and IVC diameter. In contrast to our work, these study populations included patients with PH due to left-sided heart disease and lung disease, and they did not investigate RV diastolic function. All of these studies examined CS dilatation, although whether the cause of CS dilatation was secondary to increased PASP or a part of cardiac remodeling in patients with CHF remains unclear due to the heterogeneity of the study populations. To address this in our study, we excluded patients with PH resulting from left heart disease. In PH patients with normal LV size and function, mean CS diameter was found to be significantly increased only in patients with moderate to severe PH, and was correlated with PASP, RAP, RA area, and both RV systolic and diastolic function.</p><p id="par0090" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">CS size and morphology have also been investigated in patients with supraventricular tachycardia and connection of a persistent left superior vena cava to the CS.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0210"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">17–19</span></a> Recently, Vatankulu et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0225"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">20</span></a> reported that the RV myocardial performance index, which represents both systolic and diastolic function, was increased in patients with mitral stenosis and correlated with CS dilatation.

In our study, RA area was found to be an independent predictor of a dilated CS rather than RAP, which was indirectly calculated by means of the IVC collapsibility index using echocardiography as in clinical practice. In our view, as RAP can fluctuate over time, RA size may be a better measure of mean RAP and CS dilatation. This may explain why RAP did not remain a significant factor in multivariate regression analysis and suggests that increased RA area and impaired venous drainage secondary to increased PASP may lead to CS dilatation in patients with PH.</p></span><span id="sec0040" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0100">Limitations</span><p id="par0100" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This was a case-controlled study with a relatively small number of patients.
