We aimed to evaluate the left ventricular function in patients withMB<\/jats:styled-content>of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD<\/jats:styled-content>) using longitudinal strain (LS<\/jats:styled-content>) measured by two\u2010dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Methods<\/jats:title>We enrolled 46 subjects withMB<\/jats:styled-content>in theLAD<\/jats:styled-content>diagnosed by coronary angiography. Patients were categorized into two groups according to the severity of tunneled artery stenosis: <50% as group I (23 patients) and \u226550% as groupII<\/jats:styled-content>(23 patients). Twenty\u2010five gender\u2010 and age\u2010matched subjects withoutMB<\/jats:styled-content>confirmed by coronary angiography or with normal results on treadmill exercise test were included as controls. Two\u2010dimensional strain software was applied to measure the territories systolic average peakLS<\/jats:styled-content>of theLAD<\/jats:styled-content>coronary artery (LAD<\/jats:styled-content>\u2010TPLS<\/jats:styled-content>), right coronary artery (RCA<\/jats:styled-content>\u2010TPLS<\/jats:styled-content>), and left circumflex coronary artery (LCX<\/jats:styled-content>\u2010TPLS<\/jats:styled-content>) and to measure the global systolic peakLS<\/jats:styled-content>of left ventricle (LV<\/jats:styled-content>\u2010GPLS<\/jats:styled-content>).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Results<\/jats:title>The ratio of mitral peak early (E) and late (A) filling velocity (E\/A) and the average mitral annular velocity (e\u2032) were lower, and the mitral E\/e\u2032 ratio was higher in groupII<\/jats:styled-content>than in group I and controls (P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0<\u00a00.05).LV<\/jats:styled-content>\u2010GPLS<\/jats:styled-content>andLAD<\/jats:styled-content>\u2010TPLS<\/jats:styled-content>were significantly less negative in groupII<\/jats:styled-content>than in group I and controls (LV<\/jats:styled-content>\u2010GPLS<\/jats:styled-content>: \u221219.77\u00a0\u00b1\u00a01.60% vs \u221221.10\u00a0\u00b1\u00a01.91% and \u221221.76\u00a0\u00b1\u00a01.23%;LAD<\/jats:styled-content>\u2010TPLS<\/jats:styled-content>: \u221219.24\u00a0\u00b1\u00a02.22% vs \u221222.00\u00a0\u00b1\u00a02.22% and \u221222.74\u00a0\u00b1\u00a01.82%,P\u00a0<\/jats:italic><\u00a0<\/jats:italic>0.001).
