  • Prosthetic Valve Endocarditis

    Abstract: Prosthetic valve endocarditis(PVE) is a catastrophic complication of cardiac valve replacement, associated with high mortality rates. In the past nearly five decades, the microbiology, pathophysiology, clinical features, and therapeutic options in PVE have changed a lot, and there are new insight into the pathogenesis of PVE. The current comprehensive review will address various issues involved in the diagnosis and management of this complication.

  • Fifteen Years Follow-up of 259 Patients of Mitral Valve Replacement with Chinesemade C-L Pugesturt Tilting Disc Mechanical Valve Prosthesis

    Abstract: Objective To evaluate the early and late results of mitral valve replacement with home made C-L pugesturt tilting disc and analyse the factors which impact on the therapeutic effect,so as to elevate the operative effect. Methods A retrospective study was made on the result of clinical data and longterm followup of 259 patients who had undergone the Chinesemade C-L pugesturt tilting disc mechanical valve replacement from October 1991 to November 2006. Results The data showed that there were 12 patients died in the duration of hospital stay.The hospital mortality was 4.63% (12/259).There were no mechanical valverelated complication in the earlier postoperative period.The mortality fell to 2.59% since 1996.Among the 235 patients,12 patients were lost during the followup,the rate of followup was 95.1%(235/247).The time for followup was 9.77±3.09 years. There were 26 late deaths.During the follow-up,death associated with the deterioration of valve structure were not observed. The 5 years, 10 years and l5 years survival rates were 86.80%±2.30%, 78.20%±3.33% and 55.23%±4.34% respectively; the thromboembolic event free rates for 5 years, 10 years and l5 years were 95.95%±0.74%, 92.52%±4.11% and 80.52%±4.11% respectively; the anticoagulant related bleeding free rates for 5 years, 10 years and l5 years were 94.64%±1.75%, 89.55%±3.28% and 79.39%±4.43% respectively.There were 141 patients(67.46%) in New York Heart Association(NYHA) classⅠ, 56 patients(26.79%) in class Ⅱ, 10 patients(4.78%) in class Ⅲ and 2 patients(0.95%) in class Ⅳ. Conclusion The results of follow-up for 15 years suggest that the Chinesemade C-L pugesturt tilting disc medical mechanical valve is a reliable and safe choice for mitral valve replacement.

  • Surgical Treatment of Periprosthetic Leakage: Report of 25year Experience with 63 Cases

    Objective To summarize the experiences of surgical treatment for periprosthetic leakage(PPL). Methods A total of 63 patients with PPL (mitral PPL in 34, aortic PPL in 29), age 41±12 years, underwent reoperation with prosthetic valve replacement from Dec. 1980 to Dec. 2005 in this department. Patient characteristics, operative profiles and follow-up data were described and analyzed in detail. Results The perioperative complications occurred in 11 patients (17.5%), five of whom died (the overall hospital mortality: 7.9%). Fifty-five patients were in close follow-up and three of them lost in that period, five patients died in late. Fifty patients long-term survivals were in New York Heart Association class Ⅰ-Ⅱ and follow-up evaluation by echocardiography showed no evidence of recurrence or residual PPL and PPL-related complications. Conclusion More attention should be paid to the study on etiology, pathophysiology, diagnostic methods, and clinical classification of PPL. For patients with PPL, reoperation with prosthetic valve replacement is considerably effective and can obtain an acceptable longterm results.

  • Surgical Treatment of Ascending Aortic Root Aneurysms

    Abstract:Objective To summarize the experiences in surgical treatment of ascending aortic root aneurysms. Methods One hundred and one patients (age ranging from 14 to 72 years, mean 42.7 years) with ascending aortic root aneurysms were diagnosed as having Marfan syndrome (58 cases), annuloaortic ectasia (34 cases), bicuspid aortic valve (5 cases), aorto arteritis (4 cases) combined with aortic valve incompetence (96 cases) and aortic valve stenosis (4 cases) , preoperatively with type A dissection (26 cases) and acute left heart failure (5 cases). Our operations consisted of 4 Wheat procedures, 13 Cabrol or modified Cabrol procedures, 1 David and 83 Bentall procedures. Concomitant operations included hemi-arch replacement or descending aorta intraluminal stent grafting (16 cases), total arch replacement or descending aorta intraluminal stent grafting (4 cases), mitral valve replacement or anuloplasty (14 cases) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG, 8 cases). Results The overall mortality was 6.9%(7/101), and decreased to 3. 6%(3/83) after the year 2000. Main postoperative complications were low cardiac output (10 cases), respiratory insufficiency (9 cases), and renal inadequacy (9 cases). Follow-up was completed in 94 patients. During the period of follow-up, one patient died and 5 patients with Marfan syndrome suffered with type B dissection. Conclusion Bentall procedure is the method of choice for ascending aortic root aneurysms. Preoperative left heart function and surgical techniques give the crucial impact on the outcome of surgery.
