Objective: To identify risk factors for pediatric mechanical mitral valve replacement (mMVR) to improve management in this challenging population. Methods: From 1993 to 2019, 93 children underwent 119 mMVR operations (median age, 8.8 years [interquartile range [IQR]: 2.1-13.3], 54.6% females) at our institution. Twenty-six (21.8%) patients underwent mMVR at ≤2 years and 93 (78.2%) patients underwent mMVR at >2 years. Median follow-up duration was 7.6 years [IQR: 3.2-12.4]. Results: Early mortality was 9.7%, but decreased with time and was 0% in the most recent era (13.9% from 1993 to 2000, 7.3% from 2001 to 2010, 0% from 2011 to 2019, P = .04). It was higher in patients ≤2 years compared to patients >2 years (26.9% vs 2.2%, P < .01). On multivariable analysis for mitral valve reoperation, valve size <23 mm was significant with a hazard ratio of 5.38 (4.87-19.47, P = .01);. Perioperative stroke occurred in 1% and permanent pacemaker was necessary in 12%. Freedom from mitral valve reoperation was higher in patients >2 years and those with a prosthesis ≥23 mm. Median time to reoperation was 7 years (IQR: 4.5-9.1) in patients >2 years and 3.5 years (IQR: 0.6-7.1) in patients ≤2 years ( P = .0511), but was similar between prosthesis sizes ( P = .6). During follow-up period (median 7.6 years [IQR: 3.2-12.4], stroke occurred in 10%, prosthetic valve thrombosis requiring reoperation in 4%, endocarditis in 3%, and bleeding in 1%. Conclusion: Early and late outcomes of mMVR in children are improved when performed at age >2 years and with prosthesis size ≥23 mm. These factors should be considered in the timing of mMVR.

Background: Mitral valve replacement (MVR) with a pulmonary autograft (Ross II) may be a useful technique for pediatric and young adult patients who wish to avoid anticoagulation. Our aim was to evaluate the long-term outcomes of the Ross II procedure at our institution. Methods: Patients undergoing the Ross II procedure between June 2002 and April 2008 were included. Preoperative diagnoses included rheumatic disease (n = 5), congenital mitral valve (MV) pathology (partial atrioventricular canal defect [n = 2], complete atrioventricular canal defect [n = 1], Shone's complex [n = 1]), and myocarditis (n = 1). Results: Ten patients (eight females and two males) between 7 months and 46 years were included. Mean age at surgery was 25.2 ± 15.7 years. There were no in-hospital deaths. Mean follow-up was 11.7 ± 5.2 years. There were three late deaths at 11 months, 5 years, and 11 years, respectively. Causes of death included right heart failure, sepsis, and sudden cardiac arrest. Three patients required subsequent mechanical MVR a median of two years after the Ross II procedure (range: 1-4 years). There was no mortality with reoperation. Echocardiographic follow-up demonstrated mean MV gradients ranging from 2.2 to 9.6 mm Hg. Two patients had greater than mild MV regurgitation postoperatively, and all others had minimal mitral regurgitation or less. Two patients developed moderate MV stenosis. Conclusions: The Ross II procedure is an option for select older children and young adults desiring a durable tissue MVR to avoid long-term anticoagulation.

Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement

Abstract Aims Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) with dedicated devices promises to fill the treatment gap between open-heart surgery and edge-to-edge repair for patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR). We herein present a single-centre experience of a TMVR series with two transapical devices. Methods and results A total of 11 patients were treated with the Tendyne™ (N = 7) or the Tiara™ TMVR systems (N = 4) from 2016 to 2020 either as compassionate-use procedures or as commercial implants. Clinical and echocardiographic data were collected at baseline, discharge and follow-up and are presented in accordance with the Mitral Valve Academic Research Consortium (MVARC) definitions. The study cohort [age 77 years (73, 84); 27.3% male] presented with primary (N = 4), secondary (N = 5) or mixed (N = 2) MR etiology. Patients were symptomatic (all NYHA III/IV) and at high surgical risk [logEuroSCORE II 8.1% (4.0, 17.4)]. Rates of impaired RV function (72.7%), severe pulmonary hypertension (27.3%), moderate or severe tricuspid regurgitation (63.6%) and prior aortic valve replacement (63.6%) were high. Severe mitral annulus calcification was present in two patients. Technical success was achieved in all patients. In 90.9% (N = 10) MR was completely eliminated (i.e. no or trace MR). Procedural and 30-day mortality were 0.0%. At follow-up NYHA class was I/II in the majority of patients. Overall mortality after 3 and 6 months was 10.0% and 22.2%. Conclusions TMVR was performed successfully in these selected patients with complete elimination of MR in the majority of patients. Short-term mortality was low and most patients experienced persisting functional improvement. Graphic abstract

Background: Mitral valve replacement (MVR) is the only option for infants with severe mitral valve disease that is not reparable; however, previously reported outcomes are not always favorable. Our institution has followed a tailored approach to sizing and positioning of mechanical valve prostheses in infants requiring MVR in order to obtain optimal outcomes. Methods: Outcomes for 22 infants ≤10 kg who have undergone MVR in Sydney, Australia, from 1998 to 2016, were analyzed. Patients were at a mean age of 6.8 ± 4.1 months (range: 0.8-13.2 months) and a mean weight of 5.4 ± 1.8 kg at the time of MVR. Most patients (81.8%) had undergone at least one previous cardiac surgical procedure prior to MVR, and 36.4% had undergone two previous procedures. Several surgical techniques were used to implant mechanical bileaflet prostheses. Results: All patients received bileaflet mechanical prostheses, with 12 receiving mitral prostheses and 10 receiving inverted aortic prostheses. Surgical technique varied between patients with valves implanted intra-annularly (n = 6), supra-annularly (n = 11), or supra-annularly with a tilt (n = 5). After a mean follow-up period of 6.2 ± 4.4 years, the survival rate was 100%. Six (27.3%) patients underwent redo MVR a mean of 102.2 ± 10.7 months after initial MVR. Four (18.2%) patients required surgical reintervention for development of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and three (13.6%) patients required permanent pacemaker placement during long-term follow-up. Conclusions: The tailored surgical strategy utilized for MVR in infants at our institution has resulted in reliable valve function and excellent survival. Although redo is inevitable due to somatic growth, the bileaflet mechanical prostheses used displayed appropriate durability.
