Abstract
OBJECTIVES A minimally invasive approach via a thoracotomy is an alternative in challenging redo cardiac procedures. Our goal was to present our early postoperative experience with minimally invasive cardiac surgery via a right minithoracotomy (minimally invasive) and resternotomy in patients undergoing a mitral valve procedure as a reoperation. METHODS From 2017 until 2020, reoperation of the mitral valve was performed through a right-sided minithoracotomy in 27 patients and via a resternotomy in 26 patients. Patients with femoral vessels suitable for cannulation underwent a minimally invasive technique. Patients requiring concomitant procedures regarding the aortic valve were operated on via a resternotomy. RESULTS The mean age was 66 ± 12 years in the minimally invasive group and 65 ± 12 years in the whole cohort. The average Society of Thoracic Surgeons score was 11 ± 10% in the minimally invasive group and 13 ± 9% in all patients. The majority of the patients underwent reoperation because of severe mitral valve insufficiency (48% and 55%, respectively). The mean time to reoperation was 7 ± 9 years (minimally invasive group). The 30-day mortality was 4% in the minimally invasive group and 11% in the whole cohort. The blood loss was 566 ± 359 ml in the minimally invasive group and 793 ± 410 ml totally. There were no postoperative neurological complications in the minimally invasive group and 1 (2%) in the whole cohort. Postoperative echocardiography revealed competent mitral valve/prosthesis function in all patients. CONCLUSIONS A minimally invasive approach for a mitral valve reoperation in selected patients is a safe alternative to resternotomy with a low transfusion requirement. Both surgical techniques are associated with good postoperative outcomes.

Abstract
Background Re-operative mitral valve surgery is sometimes burdened by a greater technical difficulty and a higher complications rate than the first operation. Minimally invasive cardiac surgery has become routine, and it could significantly reduce the surgical risk in redo surgery. The objective of our retrospective observational study is to assess the results of cardiac reoperations in patients with mitral valve disease approached trough a 5–7 cm right mini-thoracotomy. Methods From February 2017 to December 2019, 65 patients underwent re-operative mitral valve surgery in our institution. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was started by cannulation of the femoral and jugular vein and femoral artery or alternatively right axillary artery. Patients enrolled had a mean age of 66.6±11.5 years. Patients were divided into three groups based on the procedure adopted: external aortic cross-clamp (EAC), EndoAortic balloon occlusion (EABO) and ventricular fibrillation (VF). Major complications were evaluated and compared with a propensity matched population of patients undergoing elective isolated mitral valve surgery via right minithoracotomy (MVS). Results The average time between last operation and reoperation was 7.1±3.4 years. Fourteen patients (21%) underwent mitral valve repair and 51 patients (78%) underwent mitral valve replacement; 9 patients (14%) received tricuspid valve surgery. There was no statistically significant difference in CPB time between the groups. Seven patients (11%) had a postoperative renal failure, 5 patients (8%) underwent surgical reopening for bleeding; incidence of post-operative stroke and pace-maker implantation was 3% for both. No deaths were registered during in-hospital stay and at 30-days echocardiographic control all patients respect the criterions of device success according with MVARC. Propensity matched patients of group redo had a longer CPB time (100.8±42.7 versus 72.8±16.7 min, P<0.001) and cross-clamp time (71.9±30.7 versus 59±10.7 min, P<0.001) respect to first operation mitral valve surgery patients. Conclusions Minimally invasive mitral valve redo surgery is a safe procedure. Less invasive techniques in redo surgery could minimize morbidity and mortality without prolonging the duration of CPB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to summarize the perioperative and long-term outcomes of patients with previous mitral valve surgery (MVS) undergoing reoperative mitral valve replacement (MVR). METHODS Data for all reoperative mitral valve replacements (re-MVRs) with or without concomitant tricuspid surgery were analyzed from Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital between January 2013 and December 2019. Propensity score matching resulted in 30 matched pairs with improved balance after matching in baseline covariates. Perioperative data and long-term clinical outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS Results are based on the matched cohorts between the two groups. The in-hospital mortality was 3.3% (two deaths) in the entire cohort and was not significantly different between the median sternotomy (MS) group and the totally thoracoscopic (TT) group. Most patients in the TT group had their tracheal intubation removed within 24 hours of surgery. The TT group had a diminished requirement for blood transfusion and a reduced 4-day postoperative chest tube drainage amount. The incidence of early major complications, including all-cause death and reoperation due to bleeding, was lower in the TT group. No significant differences were observed in the 7-year survival probability between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS The encouraging results regarding the perioperative and long-term outcomes of patients who underwent a TT re-MVR show that this approach is particularly beneficial for patients requiring reoperation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To report early and midterm results registry of patients undergoing repeated aortic valve replacement (RAVR) with sutureless prostheses from an international prospective registry (SURE-AVR). METHODS Between March 2011 and June 2019, 69 patients underwent RAVR with self-expandable sutureless aortic bioprostheses at 22 international cardiac centers. RESULTS Overall mortality was 2.9% with a predicted logistic EuroSCORE II of 10.7%. Indications for RAVR were structural valve dysfunction (84.1%) and infective prosthetic endocarditis (15.9%) and were performed in patients with previously implanted bioprostheses (79.7%), mechanical valves (15.9%), and transcatheter valves (4.3%). Minimally invasive approach was performed in 15.9% of patients. Rate of stroke was 1.4% and rate of early valve-related reintervention was 1.4%. Overall survival rate at 1 and 5 years was 97% and 91%, respectively. No major paravalvular leak occurred. Rate of pacemaker implantation was 5.8% and 0.9% per patient-year early and at follow-up, respectively. The mean transvalvular gradient at 1-year and 5-year follow-up was 10.5 mm Hg and 11.5 mm Hg with a median effective orifice area of 1.8 cm2and 1.8 cm2, respectively. CONCLUSIONS RAVR with sutureless valves is a safe and effective approach and provides excellent clinical and hemodynamic results up to 5 years.

Abstract
Aim A minimally invasive technique is an attractive option in cardiac surgery. In this study, we present our experience with minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS) via right mini-thoracotomy on patients undergoing mitral valve procedure as reoperation. Methods From 2017 until 2019, 20 patients underwent reoperation of the mitral valve through a right-sided mini-thoracotomy. Cardiopulmonary bypass was established through cannulation of the femoral vessels. All patients requiring isolated re-operative mitral valve surgery with suitable femoral vessels for cannulation were included in the study. Patients requiring concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or with peripheral artery disease were excluded. Results The mean age was 65 ± 12 years. The average log. EuroSCORE was 9 ± 5%. Ten patients with severe mitral valve regurgitation (MR) underwent re-repair of the mitral valve. Seven of them were post mitral valve repair (MVR), one was post aortic valve replacement (AVR), one had tricuspid valve repair, and one other patient had CABG before. Ten patients underwent mitral valve replacement due to mixed mitral valve disease (n = 9) or mitral valve endocarditis (n = 1). Eight patients were post MVR and 2 had AVR before. The mean time to reoperation was 7.5 ± 8 years. In-hospital mortality was 5% (n = 1). The mean cross clamp time was 54 ± 26 min. Postoperative echocardiography revealed competent valve function in all cases with mean ejection fraction of 55 ± 9%. The Kaplan-Meier 1- and 2-year survival was 95%. Conclusion The MICS approach for mitral valve reoperation in selected patients seems to be safe and feasible. It is also a surgical option for high-risk patients.

Abstract
ObjectiveData suggest that redo mitral valve surgery is being performed in increasing numbers, possibly with superior results according to single-centre studies. The purpose of this study is to describe outcomes of redo mitral valve surgery and identify risk-adjusted predictors of poor outcomes.MethodsAll (11 973) open mitral valve cases were evaluated (2002–2016) from a regional Society of Thoracic Surgery (STS) database. Patients were stratified by primary versus redo mitral valve surgery. Mixed effects logistic regression models including hospital as a random effect were used to identify risk factors for patients undergoing redo mitral valve surgery.ResultsOf all mitral valve cases, 1096 (9.7%) had a previous mitral operation. Redo patients had higher rates of valve replacement and preoperative comorbidities resulting in more complications, operative mortalities (11.1%vs6.5%, p<0.0001) and higher resource utilisation. Several factors independently increased risk for composite STS major morbidity and 30-day mortality, including cardiogenic shock (OR 10.3, p=0.0001), severe tricuspid insufficiency (OR 2.3, p=0.001), urgent/emergent status (OR 1.8, p=0.001) and concurrent coronary artery bypass grafting (OR 2.4, p=0.002). The volume of redo mitral valve surgery increased 10% per year and the observed-to-expected ratios (O/E) for operative mortality in redo mitral surgery improved from 1.44 early in the study period to 0.72 in the most recent era.ConclusionsRedo mitral valve surgery accounts for approximately 10% of mitral valve operations and is associated with increased risk and resource utilisation. However, as the volume of redo mitral surgery increases, outcomes have dramatically improved and are now better than predicted.

Abstract
We present the case of a type AB thymoma in a 69-year-old man with previous coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in whom angiography revealed a left internal mammary artery graft supplying blood flow to a thymic neoplasm, which simultaneously occluded the graft. This required a redo sternotomy, lysis of pericardial adhesions, complete thymectomy, and redo one vessel off-pump CABG. This case seeks to sensitize physicians to the possibility of coronary adverse events in patients with a previous CABG in the setting of management of mediastinal neoplasms, and it presents the novel findings on cardiac imaging associated with this case.

Abstract
Background Transapical approach (TA) is an established access alternative to the transfemoral technique in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for treatment of symptomatic aortic valve stenosis. The impact of prior coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) on clinical outcomes in patients undergoing TA-TAVR is not well defined. Methods A single center retrospective cohort analysis of 126 patients (male 41%, mean age 85.8 ± 6.1 years) who underwent TA balloon expandable TAVR (Edwards SAPIEN, SAPIEN XT or SAPIEN 3) was performed. Patients were classified as having prior CABG (n = 45) or no prior CABG (n = 81). Baseline clinical characteristics, in-hospital, 30-day, 6 months and one-year clinical outcomes were compared. Results Compared to patients without prior CABG, CABG patients were more likely to be male (62.2 vs. 29.6%, p < 0.001) with a higher STS score (11.66 ± 5.47 vs. 8.99 ± 4.19, p = 0.003), history of myocardial infarction (55 vs. 21.1%, p < 0.001), implantable cardioverter defibrillator (17.8 vs. 3.7%, p = 0.017), left main coronary artery disease (42.2 vs. 4.9%, p < 0.001), and proximal left anterior descending coronary artery stenosis (57.8 vs. 16%, p < 0.001). They also presented with a lower left ventricular ejection fraction (%) (42.3 ± 15.3 vs. 54.3 ± 11.6, p < 0.01) and a larger effective valve orifice area (0.75 ± 0.20 cm2 vs. 0.67 ± 0.14 cm2, p = 0.025). There were no intra-procedural deaths, no differences in stroke (0 vs. 1.2%, p = 1.0), procedure time in hours (3.50 ± 0.80 vs. 3.26 ± 0.86, p = 0.127), re-intubation rate (8.9 vs. 8.6% p = 1.0), and renal function (highest creatinine value 1.73 ± 0.71 mg/ml vs.1.88 ± 1.15 mg/ml, p = 0.43). All-cause mortality at 6 months was similar in both groups (11.4, vs. 17.3% p = 0.44), and one-year survival was 81.8 and 77.8% respectively (p = 0.51). On multivariate analysis, the only factor significantly associated with one-year mortality was prior history of stroke (HR, 2.76; 95% CI, 1.06-7.17, p = 0.037). Conclusion Despite the higher baseline clinical risk profile, patients with history of prior CABG undergoing TA-TAVR had comparable in-hospital, 6 months and one-year clinical outcomes to those without prior CABG.

The Use of Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest During Heart Transplantation Does Not Worsen Posttransplant Survival. Ann Thorac Surg 2016; 102:1260-5. [PMID: 27209609 DOI: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2016.03.058] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2015] [Revised: 01/31/2016] [Accepted: 03/07/2016] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) has been used as an adjunct to cardiopulmonary bypass for decades, both electively and emergently, to facilitate a bloodless operative field while maintaining cerebral protection. The aim of this study is to determine the impact of HCA during heart transplantation on posttransplant outcomes. METHODS All adult patients undergoing orthotopic heart transplantation at our institution between 2000 and 2012 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were stratified based on need for HCA during surgery; patients who required HCA (HCA group, n = 25), and patients who did not (no-HCA group, n = 903). The primary outcomes of interest were 30-day and 1-year mortality and postoperative complication rate. RESULTS Indications for HCA included control of significant hemorrhage (n = 9), need for distal aortic procedures (n = 9), or as an aid in difficult mediastinal dissection (n = 7). Mean duration of HCA was 22 ± 18 minutes at a mean temperature of 24.5° ± 5.5°C. Significantly more patients in the HCA group underwent transplant for congenital heart disease (16.0% HCA versus 2.8% no-HCA, p = 0.006), and patients in the HCA group had undergone more prior sternotomies (HCA 1 [interquartile range: 1 to 2] versus no-HCA 1 [interquartile range: 0 to 1], p < 0.001]. There was no statistical difference in 30-day mortality (8.0% HCA versus 4.2% no-HCA, p = 0.29) or 1-year mortality (8.0% HCA versus 12.3% no-HCA, p = 0.76). The HCA group had higher rates of reoperation for mediastinal bleeding and postoperative respiratory failure. CONCLUSIONS The need for HCA during heart transplantation is rare but, when required, it is frequently a life-saving adjunct to cardiopulmonary bypass. However, patients who require HCA have higher rates of postoperative complications. Risk factors for needing HCA during transplantation include congenital heart disease and more than one prior sternotomies.

A right thoracotomy approach for mitral and tricuspid valve surgery in patients with previous standard sternotomy: comparison with a re-sternotomy approach. Gen Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2016; 64:315-24. [PMID: 26968540 DOI: 10.1007/s11748-016-0638-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2015] [Accepted: 03/02/2016] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To compare the outcomes of mitral and/or tricuspid valve surgery in patients with previous sternotomy between those who underwent a right thoracotomy and those who underwent re-sternotomy. METHODS Between October 2009 and May 2015, eighteen patients underwent a right thoracotomy (R group) and 28 underwent re-sternotomy (re-S group). The right thoracotomy was prioritized for previous coronary artery bypass grafting. Follow-up was 100 % complete with a mean follow-up of 1.9 ± 1.5 years for the R group and 2.5 ± 1.4 years for the re-S group (p = 0.2137). RESULTS Hypothermic ventricular fibrillation was applied in 33.3 % in the R group and in 7.1 % in the re-S group (p = 0.0424). Hospital mortality, the median intensive care unit stay, and the median postoperative hospital stay were 0 % versus 7.1 % (p = 0.5130), 3 days versus 2 days (p = 0.2370), and 28 days versus 29.5 days (p = 0.8043) for the R group versus the re-S group, respectively. Although the rate of major complications was comparable (R group 33.3 % versus re-S group 25.0 %, p = 0.5401), those contents were not equal. Deep sternum infection developed only in the re-S group (3.6 %) and reoperation for bleeding was required only in the R group (11.1 %). No significant difference was observed in the 2-year cardiac-related mortality-free rate (R group 93.3 ± 6.4 % versus re-S group 90.8 ± 6.4 %, p = 0.7516). CONCLUSIONS Given study limitations, the right thoracotomy approach after previous sternotomy provided favorable outcomes as well as re-sternotomy. When selecting a right thoracotomy for re-do mitral and/or tricuspid surgery, the surgical strategy needs to be thoroughly planned.

Abstract
Redo cardiac surgery represents a clinical challenge due to a higher rate of perioperative morbidity and mortality. Mitral valve (MV) re operations can particularly be demanding in patients with patent coronary grafts, previous aortic valve replacement, calcified aorta or complications following a previous operation (abscesses, leaks or thrombosis). In this article we describe our technique to manage complex mitral reoperations using a minimally invasive approach, moderate hypothermia and avoiding aortic cross-clamping. Minimally invasive procedures with an unclamped aorta have the potential to combine the benefits of less invasive access and continuous myocardial perfusion. The advantage of a right mini-thoracotomy is the avoidance of sternal re-entry and limited dissection of adhesions, reducing the risk of cardiac structures or patent graft injury. Moderate hypothermia and continuous blood perfusion can guarantee adequate myocardial protection particularly in the case of patent grafts, decreasing the dangers of an incomplete or imperfect aortic clamping at mild hypothermia and potential lesions due to demanding clamp placing. Complex MV reoperations can be safely and effectively performed through a smaller right thoracotomy in the fourth intercostal space with an unclamped aorta.

Abstract
Redo cardiac surgery represents a clinical challenge due to a higher rate of peri-operative morbidity and mortality. Mitral valve re-operations can be particularly demanding in patients with patent coronary artery bypass grafts, previous aortic valve replacement, calcified aorta or complications following a previous operation (abscesses, perivalvular leaks, or thrombosis). Risk of graft injuries, hemorrhage, the presence of dense adhesions and complex valve exposure can make redo valve operations challenging through a median sternotomy. In this review article we provide an overview of minimally invasive approaches for redo mitral valve surgery discussing indications, techniques, outcomes, concerns and controversies. Scientific literature about minimally invasive approach for redo mitral surgery was reviewed with a MEDLINE search strategy combining "mitral valve" with the following terms: 'minimally invasive', 'reoperation', and 'alternative approach'. The search was limited to the last ten years. A total of 168 papers were found using the reported search. From these, ten papers were identified to provide the best evidence on the subject. Mitral valve reoperations can be safely and effectively performed through a smaller right thoracotomy in the fourth intercostal space termed "mini" thoracotomy or "port access". The greatest potential benefit of a right mini-thoracotomy is the avoidance of sternal re-entry and limited dissection of adhesions, avoiding the risk of injury to cardiac structures or patent grafts. Good percentages of valve repair can be achieved. Mortality is low as well as major complications. Minimally invasive procedures with an unclamped aorta have the potential to combine the benefits of minimally invasive access and continuous myocardial perfusion. Less invasive trans-catheter techniques could be considered as the natural future evolution for management of structural heart disease and mitral reoperations. The safety and efficacy of these procedures has never been compared to open reoperations in a randomized trial, although published case series and comparisons to historical cohorts suggest that they are an effective and feasible alternative. Ongoing follow-up on current series will further define these procedures and provide valuable clinical outcome data.
