Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the safety and feasibility of over-expansion of right ventricle to pulmonary artery conduits during transcatheter pulmonary valve placement. BACKGROUND Transcatheter pulmonary valve placement is an alternative to surgical pulmonary valve replacement. Traditionally, it was thought to be unsafe to expand a conduit to >110% of its original size. METHODS This retrospective cohort study from two centers includes patients with right ventricle to pulmonary artery conduits with attempted transcatheter pulmonary valve placement from 2010 to 2017. Demographic, procedural, echocardiographic and follow-up data, and complications were evaluated in control and overdilation (to >110% original conduit size) groups. RESULTS One hundred and seventy-two patients (51 overdilation and 121 control) had attempted transcatheter pulmonary valve placement (98% successful). The overdilation group was younger (11.2 versus 16.7 years, p < 0.001) with smaller conduits (15 versus 22 mm, p < 0.001); however, the final valve size was not significantly different (19.7 versus 20.2 mm, p = 0.2). Baseline peak echocardiographic gradient was no different (51.8 versus 55.6 mmHg, p = 0.3). Procedural complications were more frequent in overdilation (18%) than control (7%) groups (most successfully addressed during the procedure). One patient from each group required urgent surgical intervention, with no procedural mortality. Follow-up echocardiographic peak gradients were similar (24.1 versus 26 mmHg, p = 0.5). CONCLUSIONS Over-expansion of right ventricle to pulmonary artery conduits during transcatheter pulmonary valve placement can be performed successfully. Procedural complications are more frequent with conduit overdilation, but there was no difference in the rate of life-threatening complications. There was no difference in valve function at most recent follow-up, and no difference in rate of reintervention. The long-term outcomes of transcatheter pulmonary valve placement with conduit over-expansion requires further study.

Long-term outcomes of transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation with melody and SAPIEN valves. Int J Cardiol 2023; 370:156-166. [PMID: 36283540 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2022.10.141] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2022] [Revised: 10/16/2022] [Accepted: 10/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation (TPVI) is effective for treating right ventricle outflow tract (RVOT) dysfunction. Factors associated with long-term valve durability remain to be investigated. METHODS Consecutive patients successfully treated by TPVI with Melody valves (n = 32) and SAPIEN valves (n = 182) between 2008 and 2020 at a single tertiary centre were included prospectively and monitored. RESULTS The 214 patients had a median age of 28 years (range, 10-81). The RVOT was a patched native pulmonary artery in 96 (44.8%) patients. Median follow-up was 2.8 years (range, 3 months-11.4 years). Secondary pulmonary valve replacement (sPVR) was performed in 23 cases (10.7%), due to stenosis (n = 22, 95.7%) or severe regurgitation (n = 1, 4.3%), yielding an incidence of 7.6/100 patient-years with melody valves and 1.3/100 patient-years with SAPIEN valves (P = 0.06). The 5- and 10-year sPVR-freedom rates were 78.1% and 50.4% with Melody vs. 94.3% and 82.2% with SAPIEN, respectively (P = 0.06). The incidence of infective endocarditis (IE) was 5.5/100 patient-years with Melody and 0.2/100 patient-years with SAPIEN (P < 0.0001). Factors associated with sPVR by univariate analysis were RV obstruction before TPVI (P = 0.04), transpulmonary maximal velocity > 2.7 m/s after TPVI (p = 0.0005), valve diameter ≤ 22 mm (P < 0.003), IE (P < 0.0001), and age < 25 years at TPVI (P = 0.04). By multivariate analysis adjusted for IE occurrence, transpulmonary maximal velocity remained associated with sPVR. CONCLUSIONS TPVI is effective for treating RVOT dysfunction. Incidence of sPVR is higher in patients with residual RV obstruction or IE. IE add a substantial risk of TPVI graft failure and is mainly linked to the Melody valve. SOCIAL MEDIA ABSTRACT Transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation is effective for treating right ventricular outflow tract dysfunction in patients with congenital heart diseases. Incidence of secondary valve replacement is higher in patients with residual obstruction or infective endocarditis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcatheter pulmonary valve (TPV) replacement (TPVR) has become the standard therapy for postoperative pulmonary outflow tract dysfunction in patients with a prosthetic conduit/valve, but there is limited information about risk factors for death or reintervention after this procedure. OBJECTIVES This study sought to evaluate mid- and long-term outcomes after TPVR in a large multicenter cohort. METHODS International registry focused on time-related outcomes after TPVR. RESULTS Investigators submitted data for 2,476 patients who underwent TPVR and were followed up for 8,475 patient-years. A total of 95 patients died after TPVR, most commonly from heart failure (n = 24). The cumulative incidence of death was 8.9% (95% CI: 6.9%-11.5%) 8 years after TPVR. On multivariable analysis, age at TPVR (HR: 1.04 per year; 95% CI: 1.03-1.06 per year; P < 0.001), a prosthetic valve in other positions (HR: 2.1; 95% CI: 1.2-3.7; P = 0.014), and an existing transvenous pacemaker/implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (HR: 2.1; 95% CI: 1.3-3.4; P = 0.004) were associated with death. A total of 258 patients underwent TPV reintervention. At 8 years, the cumulative incidence of any TPV reintervention was 25.1% (95% CI: 21.8%-28.5%) and of surgical TPV reintervention was 14.4% (95% CI: 11.9%-17.2%). Risk factors for surgical reintervention included age (0.95 per year [95% CI: 0.93-0.97 per year]; P < 0.001), prior endocarditis (2.5 [95% CI: 1.4-4.3]; P = 0.001), TPVR into a stented bioprosthetic valve (1.7 [95% CI: 1.2-2.5]; P = 0.007), and postimplant gradient (1.4 per 10 mm Hg [95% CI: 1.2-1.7 per 10 mm Hg]: P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS These findings support the conclusion that survival and freedom from reintervention or surgery after TPVR are generally comparable to outcomes of surgical conduit/valve replacement across a wide age range.
