Abstract
Recently developed prosthetic valves are reliable and essential for the treatment of valvular heart disease. The mechanical valve evolved remarkably following the introduction of pyrolite carbon material, which enabled the creation of a bileaflet form incorporated with a pivot mechanism. The improved durability of the biological valve is attributed mainly to the development of a tissue fixation process and anti-calcification treatments. However, optimal antithrombogenicity and durability have not yet been achieved for either prosthetic valve type. To select the most suitable prosthetic valve for each individual patient from among the many clinically available prosthetic valves, it is necessary to have a thorough understanding of the characteristics of each valve.

[PMID: 34277032 PMCID: PMC8264679 DOI: 10.21037/jtd-20-3027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2020] [Accepted: 01/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Background This study aimed to investigate the early and late outcomes of mechanical tricuspid valve replacement (mTVR). Methods We evaluated 113 patients (82 women; median age, 53 years) who underwent mTVR between 1995 and 2017. Based on a history of cardiac surgery, patients were divided into primary (n=42) and reoperative mTVR (n=71) groups. The median follow-up duration was 12.7 years in primary and 9.3 years in reoperative mTVR, respectively (P=0.045). Results Patients in the reoperative group were older (54 vs. 46 years; P=0.007) and showed higher central venous pressure (16±6 vs. 13±6 mmHg; P=0.002) than the primary group. Early mortality occurred in 2 patients in the reoperative group (2 vs. 0; P=0.529). There was no significant difference in overall survival between the primary and reoperation groups (15-year survival rate: 86% vs. 78%; P=0.215). The independent risk factors of overall survival were age [P<0.001; hazard ratio (HR), 1.11; 95% confidential interval (CI), 1.05–1.18], left ventricular ejection fraction of less than 40% (P=0.001; HR, 5.1; 95% CI, 2.21–28.2), and central venous pressure over 20 mmHg (P=0.016; HR, 3.7; 95% CI, 1.28–10.7). Overall survival did not differ between the age groups (<60 vs. 60–70 years) in the reoperative group (P=0.772). Tricuspid valve thrombosis occurred in 8 patients (7 primary, 1 reoperative; P=0.004). Conclusions The incidence of tricuspid valve thrombosis was significantly higher in the primary mTVR group compared with the reoperative mTVR group. The patients who underwent mTVR at a relatively young age showed good early and late outcomes in both groups.

Eur J Cardiothorac Surg 2020; 59:577-585.

Abstract
Abstract
OBJECTIVES
Functional tricuspid regurgitation (fTR) has been amenable to tricuspid valve repair (TVr), with fewer patients needing tricuspid valve replacement (TVR). We sought to review our experience of tricuspid valve surgery for fTR.
METHODS
A retrospective analysis of adult patients (≥18 years) who underwent primary tricuspid valve surgery for fTR (n = 926; mean age 68.6 ± 12.5 years; 67% females) from January 1993 through June 2018 was conducted. There were 767 (83%) patients who underwent TVr (ring annuloplasty, 67%; purse-string annuloplasty, 33%) and 159 (17%) underwent TVR (bioprosthetic valves, 87%; mechanical valves, 13%). The median follow-up was 8.2 years [95% confidence interval (CI) 7.2–8.9 years].
RESULTS
A greater proportion of patients who underwent TVR had severe right ventricular dysfunction (P < 0.001), severe tricuspid regurgitation (P < 0.001) and congestive heart failure (P = 0.001) while the TVr cohort had a greater proportion with severe mitral valve (MV) regurgitation (P < 0.001) and concomitant cardiac procedures. Early mortality (TVR, 9% vs TVr, 3%; P = 0.004), renal failure (TVR, 10% vs TVr, 5%; P = 0.014) and hospital stay (TVR, 15 ± 15 days vs TVr, 12 ± 11 days; P < 0.001) were greater in TVR patients. The TVR cohort had worse survival [hazard ratio (HR) 1.57; 95% CI 1.23–1.99]. Multivariable analysis identified congestive heart failure (HR 1.37; 95% CI 1.10–1.72), renal failure (HR 1.79; 95% CI 1.14–2.82), previous MV surgery (HR 1.35; 95% CI 1.05–1.72) and TVR (HR 1.36; 95% CI 1.03–1.79) as independent risk factors for late mortality.
CONCLUSIONS
Tricuspid repair for fTR appears to have better early and late outcomes. Since previous MV surgery and TVR are identified as independent risk factors for late mortality, concomitant TVr at the time of index MV surgery may be considered. Early referral before the onset of advanced heart failure may improve outcomes.

Abstract
Abstract
OBJECTIVES
Limited literature is available on the best management strategy for tricuspid valve (TV) disease in adults. We sought to review our long-term outcomes of TV surgery with regard to survival and reoperation.
METHODS
A retrospective analysis of all patients ≥18 years of age [n = 2541, aged 67 ± 13years, 1433 (56%) females] who underwent first-time TV surgery between January 1993 and December 2013 was done. There were 1735 patients who received TV repair and 806 patients underwent replacement. A gradient boosting machine model was used to derive a propensity score for predicting replacement using 27 preoperative characteristics. Four hundred and eighteen propensity-matched pairs of TV repair and replacement were identified. Cox proportional hazard regression was used on the matched subset to determine the effect of replacement.
RESULTS
Functional TV regurgitation was present in 54% (n = 1369). A bioprosthesis was used in 84% (n = 680) of replacements, while 54% (n = 934) of TV repairs were ring annuloplasties. Operative mortality was 8% (n = 212). Overall survival was 54%, 29% and 13% at 5, 10 and 15 years, respectively. After propensity score matching, replacement was significantly associated with increased mortality [hazard ratio (HR) 1.54, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.18–2.00; P = 0.001]. The cumulative incidence of TV reoperation was similar between the 2 groups when accounting for the competing risk of death [Fine–Gray HR 1.56, 95% CI 0.9–2.8; P = 0.144].
CONCLUSIONS
TV surgery is associated with poor outcomes due to multiple patient comorbidities. TV repair results in better survival compared to replacement in patients with similar comorbidities with no increased risk of getting a reoperation.
