RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Several studies have been published on the effect of bone-marrow stem cells on the left ventricle when acting on post- acute myocardial infarction remodeling. However, the results have been controversial. OBJECTIVE: To carry out an echocardiographic analysis of the systolic function of patients with acute myocardial infarction after autologous mononuclear bone marrow cell transplantation (AMBMCT) as performed via the intracoronary and intravenous routes. METHODS: This is an open-label, prospective, randomized study. INCLUSION CRITERIA: patients admitted for ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (MI) who had undergone mechanical or chemical reperfusion within 24 hours of the onset of symptoms and whose echocardiogram showed decreased segmental wall motion and fixed perfusion defect related to the culprit artery. Autologous bone marrow was aspirated from the posterior iliac crest under sedation and analgesia of the patients randomly assigned for the treatment group. After laboratory manipulation, intracoronary or intravenous injection of 100 x 106 mononuclear cells was performed. Echocardiography (Vivid 7) was used to assess ventricular function before and three and six months after cell infusion. RESULTS: A total of 30 patients were included, 14 in the arterial group (AG), 10 in the venous group (VG), and six in the control group (CG). No statistical difference was found between the groups for the echocardiographic parameters studied. CONCLUSION: Autologous mononuclear bone marrow cell transplantation did not improve the echocardiographic parameters of systolic function.

FUNDAMENTO: Diversos estudos foram publicados sobre a ação de células tronco da medula óssea no ventrículo esquerdo, ao atuarem no remodelamento pós-infarto agudo do miocárdio. Os resultados, no entanto, têm se mostrado controversos. OBJETIVO: Avaliar através do ecocardiograma a função sistólica de pacientes com infarto agudo do miocárdio após o Transplante Autólogo de Células Mononucleares da Medula Óssea (TACMMO) através de duas vias injeção: intracoronariana e intravenosa. MÉTODOS: Estudo aberto, prospectivo, randomizado. Foram incluídos pacientes admitidos por infarto agudo do miocárdio (IAM) com supradesnivelamento do segmento ST e submetidos à reperfusão mecânica ou química, dentro de 24 horas após o início dos sintomas, que apresentavam ao ecocardiograma redução da contratilidade segmentar e defeito fixo da perfusão relacionada à artéria culpada pelo IAM. A medula óssea autóloga foi aspirada da crista ilíaca posterior sob sedação e analgesia, nos pacientes randomizados para o grupo tratado. Após manipulação laboratorial, 100 milhões de células mononucleares foram injetadas por via intracoronariana ou intravenosa. Utilizamos o ecocardiograma (Vivid 7) para avaliar a função ventricular antes e após três e seis meses da infusão de células. RESULTADOS: Foram incluídos trinta pacientes, 14 no grupo arterial (GA), dez no grupo venoso (GV) e seis no grupo controle (GC). Não houve diferença estatística dos parâmetros ecocardiográficos estudados entre os grupos. CONCLUSÃO: O transplante autólogo de células mononucleares da medula óssea não demonstrou melhora dos parâmetros ecocardiográficos da função sistólica.
