Introduction: A history of malignancy is incorporated in the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) Score to assess presurgical risk in patients undergoing surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR), however data on the prognostic importance in those undergoing TAVR remains limited. Methods: The National Inpatient Sample Database was queried from 2012 to 2017 to identify patients who underwent TAVR using International Classification of Diseases (ICD) 9 and 10 procedure codes. These patients were classified into those who had a history of malignancy or not using ICD 9 and 10 diagnostic codes. Results: There were 24,615 patients who underwent TAVR, of these 4,735 patients had a prior history of malignancy whereas 19,880 patients had no prior history of malignancy. Patients with a history of malignancy were older than those without (81.1±7.9 vs. 80.1± 6.7 years old, p<0.001). Baseline characteristics are shown in Table 1. Patients with a history of malignancy had similar rates of post-TAVR pacemaker implantation (7.6% vs. 6.8%,p=0.05), deep vein thrombosis/pulmonary embolism (2.8% vs.3.1%, p=0.231), paravalvular leak (0.9% vs. 1.1%, p=0.312) and cardiogenic shock (0.3% vs. 0.3%, p=0.828) as those without. The occurrence of post TAVR ischemic strokes were higher in those without a history of malignancy ( 4.8% vs. 3.6%, p<0.001). Using a multivariate logistic regression model to adjust for confounding factors such as age, gender, hypertension, diabetes, heart failure, chronic kidney disease and coronary artery disease, a history of malignancy was predictive of decreased odds of death in patients undergoing TAVR (odds ratio: 0.69, 95% confidence interval 0.53-0.90, p=0.007). Conclusions: In patients with severe symptomatic AS and a history of malignancy, TAVR appears safe with comparable in-hospital outcomes. A history of malignancy should not preclude TAVR in patients with severe symptomatic AS, however larger studies are needed to confirm this finding.

Objective: To highlight the main target points covered by clinical studies on the Perceval sutureless valve for surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) and raise a point of discussion for further expansion of its use when compared with stented bioprostheses (SB) and transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).Methods: We reviewed clinical trials and retrospective studies published up to date and compared the outcomes in terms of mortality, myocardial infarction (MI) stroke, paravalvular leak (PVL), permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI), bleeding and long-term outcomes.Results: Clinical studies showed that 30-day mortality ranged from 0–4% for Perceval and 2.9–7% for TAVR. The incidence of PVL (Perceval 1.9–19.4 vs. TAVR 9–53.5%), PPI (Perceval 2–11.2 vs. TAVR 4.9–25.5%), stroke (Perceval 0 vs. TAVR 0–2.8%), MI (Perceval 0 vs. TAVR 0–3.5%), were all higher in the TAVR group. Compared to other SB, mortality ranged from 0–6.4% for Perceval and 0–5.9% for SB. The incidence of PVR (Perceval 1–19.4 vs. SB 0–1%), PPI (Perceval 2–10.7 vs. SB 1.8–8.5%), stroke (Perceval 0–3.7 vs. SB 1.8–7.3%) and MI (Perceval 0–7.8 vs. SB 0–4.3%) were comparable among the groups. In patients with a bicuspid aortic valve, mortality rate was (0–4%) and PVL incidence was (0–2.3%). However, there was a high incidence of PPI (0–20%), and stroke (0–8%). Long-term survival ranged between 96.7–98.6%.Conclusions: The Perceval bioprosthesis has proved to be a reliable prosthesis for surgical aortic valve replacement due to its implantation speed, the reduced cardiopulmonary bypass time, the reduced aortic cross-clamp time and the shorter intensive care unit and hospital length of stay.

AbstractTranscatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has shown to reduce mortality compared to surgical aortic valve replacement (sAVR). However, it is unknown which procedure is associated with better post-procedural valvular function. We conducted a meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials that compared TAVR to sAVR for at least 2 years. The primary outcome was post-procedural patient-prosthesis-mismatch (PPM). Secondary outcomes were post-procedural and 2-year: effective orifice area (EOA), paravalvular gradient (PVG) and moderate/severe paravalvular leak (PVL). We identified 6 trials with a total of 7022 participants with severe aortic stenosis. TAVR was associated with 37% (95% CI [0.51–0.78) mean RR reduction of post-procedural PPM, a decrease that was not affected by the surgical risk at inclusion, neither by the transcatheter heart valve system. Postprocedural changes in gradient and EOA were also in favor of TAVR as there was a pooled mean difference decrease of 0.56 (95% CI [0.73–0.38]) in gradient and an increase of 0.47 (95% CI [0.38–0.56]) in EOA. Additionally, self-expandable valves were associated with a higher decrease in gradient than balloon ones (beta = 0.38; 95% CI [0.12–0.64]). However, TAVR was associated with a higher risk of moderate/severe PVL (pooled RR: 9.54, 95% CI [5.53–16.46]). All results were sustainable at 2 years.

Objectives: Transcatheter aortic valve-in-valve implantation (ViV) is an innovative treatment for failed tissue valves (TV) in patients at high surgical risk. However, direct comparative data with standard repeat surgical aortic valve replacement (RE-SAVR) is scarce. We aimed to compare outcomes after ViV to conventional RE-SAVR in two European centers with established interventional programs. Methods: Retrospectively we explored in-hospital databases for patients ≥60 years, treated for degenerated TV. Patients with endocarditis and combined procedures were excluded. Primary endpoints were adjudicated according to VARC-2 criteria. Results: Between 2002 and 2015, 130 patients were treated for isolated failure of aortic TV’s (ViV: n=71, RE-SAVR: n=59). In ViV, Edwards Sapien valve (ESV) was most frequently used (n=36) but implanted into larger TV’s (CoreValve TV size: 22.2±1.3mm vs. ESV TV size: 24.1±2.0mm, p<0.01). Both age and logistic EuroSCORE I were higher in ViV compared to RE-SAVR (78.6±7.5 vs. 72.9±6.5 ys, p<0.01; 25.1±18.9 vs. 16.8±9.4%, p<0.01). Thirty-day mortality was not significantly different with 4.2% (3/71) after ViV vs. 5.1% (3/59) post RE-SAVR (p=1.0). Device success was achieved in 54.9% (n=39) in ViV and all RE-SAVR patients (p<0.01). Perioperative stroke was not observed after ViV and in 2 patients after RE-SAVR (3.4%, p=0.2). Intensive-care stay was longer after RE-SAVR (3.4±2.9d vs. 1.9±1.8d, p<0.01). Following ViV, 22.5% (n=16) of patients had mild aortic regurgitation, vs. 11.3% (n=8; p=0.25) after RE-SAVR. Mean transvalvular pressure gradients at discharge were higher post ViV (19.3±7.3 vs.12.2±5.6mmHg, p<0.01). Rate of permanent pacemaker implantation was lower after ViV (9.9% vs. 27.1%, p<0.01). Survival at 90- and 180-days was 93.8% and 91.8% vs. 94.4% and 94.4% after ViV and RE-SAVR respectively (p=0.87). Conclusion: Despite a higher risk profile, early mortality was not different between the two treatment arms. Although ViV resulted in elevated postoperative transvalvular pressure gradients and therefore a lower rate of device success, mortality after 180-days was similar to RE-SAVR. At present, both techniques serve as complementary approaches and allow individualized patient care.

The Impact

Background: It is well known that there is a significant gender gap in both the referral and outcomes of patients eligible for cardiac surgery. The impact of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) on the gender disparity in the management of aortic stenosis (AS) has not been well established. The aim of this study was to analyze the referrals to and outcomes of both surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) and TAVR for management of AS as a function of gender in a contemporary United States population. Methods: We used the National Inpatient database 2009-2015 to study the gender distribution of admissions for both SAVR and TAVR for the treatment of AS and its effect on inpatient outcomes. The survey estimation commands were used to determine weighted national estimates. Results: During the study period there were 3,443,274 (Males (M) 46.6 ± 0.1%; Females (F) 53.3 ± 0.1%) admissions for AS diagnosis, 325,264 SAVR (M 62.0 ± 0.2%; F 37.9 ± 0.2%) and 56,542 TAVR (M 52.6 ± 0.5%; F 47.3 ± 0.5%). The gender disparity was more prominent in Whites (Wh) than Non-whites (NWh) for both SAVR (Wh M 62.7 ± 0.2%, Wh F 37.2 ± 0.2%; NWh M 57.3 ± 0.5%, NWF 42.6 ± 0.5%) and TAVR (Wh M 53.1 ± 0.5%, Wh F 46.8 ± 0.5%; NWh M 47.2 ± 1.3%, NWh F 52.7 ± 1.3%). Female TAVR patients were older and more likely to have Medicare but less likely to have diabetes, chronic kidney disease (CKD), peripheral artery disease (PAD), prior coronary bypass surgery (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). They also had lower Charlson comorbidity index (CCI). However, female TAVR patients had higher inpatient deaths (OR = 1.34;1.09-1.64), bleeding (OR = 1.51; 1.40-1.62) and stroke (OR = 1.47; 1.16-1.88), but a lower rate of pacemaker implantation (0.86; 0.76-0.97) and acute renal failure (ARF) (OR = 0.78; 0.71- 0.87). SAVR females were older, more likely to have Medicare, hypertension, and heart failure but less likely to have diabetes, CKD, PAD, prior CABG and PCI, and COPD. They also had lower CCI. SAVR female patients had higher inpatient deaths (OR = 1.40; 1.29-1.53), pacemaker implantation (OR =1.19; 1.11-1.28), blood transfusion (OR = 1.40; 1.35-1.45), and stroke (OR =1.19; 1.08-1.30), but lower ARF (OR = 0.80; 0.76-0.83). Conclusion: A gender disparity in the management of aortic stenosis continues to exist; however, our study showed that TAVR appears to bridge this gap. The reduction in gender disparity was most pronounced among Non-white patients. Despite having less comorbidities, outcomes after both SAVR and TAVR remain worse in women.

Abstract OBJECTIVES We sought to study the indications, long-term occurrence, and predictors of permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) after isolated surgical aortic valve replacement with bioprostheses. METHODS The CAREAVR study included 704 patients (385 females, 54.7%) without a preoperative PPI (mean ± standard deviation age 75 ± 7 years) undergoing isolated surgical aortic valve replacement at 4 Finnish hospitals between 2002 and 2014. Data were extracted from electronic patient records. RESULTS The follow-up was median 4.7 years (range 1 day to 12.3 years). Altogether 56 patients received PPI postoperatively, with the median 507 days from the operation (range 6 days to 10.0 years). The PPI indications were atrioventricular block (31 patients, 55%) and sick sinus syndrome (21 patients, 37.5%). For 4 patients, the PPI indication remained unknown. A competing risks regression analysis (Fine–Gray method), adjusted with age, sex, diabetes, coronary artery disease, preoperative atrial fibrillation (AF), left ventricular ejection fraction, New York Heart Association class, AF at discharge and urgency of operation, was used to assess risk factors for PPI. Only AF at discharge (subdistribution hazard ratio 4.34, 95% confidence interval 2.34–8.03) was a predictor for a PPI. CONCLUSIONS Though atrioventricular block is the major indication for PPI after surgical aortic valve replacement, &gt;30% of PPIs are implanted due to sick sinus syndrome during both short-term follow-up and long-term follow-up. Postoperative AF versus sinus rhythm conveys &gt;4-fold risk of PPI. Clinical trial registration clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT02626871

Abstract Prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE) after surgical aortic valve replacement and transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) carries significant morbidity/mortality. Our review aims to compare incidence, predisposing factors, microbiology, diagnosis, management, and outcomes of PVE in surgical aortic valve replacement/TAVR patients. We searched PubMed and Embase to identify published studies from January 1, 2015 to March 13, 2020. Key words were indexed for original reports, clinical studies, and reviews. Reports were evaluated by 2 authors against a priori inclusion/exclusion criteria. Studies were included if they reported incidence and outcomes related to surgical aortic valve replacement/TAVR PVE and excluded if they were published pre‐2015 or included a small population. We followed the Cochrane methodology and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses guidelines for all stages of the design and implementation. Study quality was based on the Newcastle‐Ottawa Scale. Thirty‐three studies with 311 to 41 025 patients contained relevant information. The majority found no significant difference in incidence of surgical aortic valve replacement/TAVR PVE (reported as 0.3%–1.2% per patient‐year versus 0.6%–3.4%), but there were key differences in pathogenesis. TAVR has a specific set of infection risks related to entry site, procedure, and device, including nonstandardized protocols for infection control, valve crimping injury, paravalvular leak, neo‐leaflet stress, intact/calcified native leaflets, and intracardiac hardware. With the expansion of TAVR to lower risk and younger patients, a better understanding of pathogenesis, patient presentation, and guideline‐directed treatment is paramount. When operative intervention is necessary, mortality remains high at 20% to 30%. Unique TAVR infection risks present opportunities for PVE prevention, therefore, further investigation is imperative.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the temporal trends of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in severe aortic stenosis (AS) patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and to compare the in-hospital outcomes between TAVR and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in patients with AF.Background: Data comparing TAVR to SAVR in severe AS patients with AF are lacking.Methods: National inpatient sample database in the United States from 2012 to 2016 were queried to identify hospitalizations for severe aortic stenosis patients with AF who underwent isolated aortic valve replacement. A propensity score-matched analysis was used to compare in-hospital outcomes for TAVR vs. SAVR for AS patients with AF.Results: The analysis included 278,455 hospitalizations, of which 124,910 (44.9%) were comorbid with AF. Before matching, TAVR had higher in-hospital mortality than SAVR (3.1 vs. 2.2%, p &lt; 0.001); however, there was a declining trend during the study period (Ptrend &lt; 0.001). After matching, TAVR and SAVR had similar in-hospital mortality (2.9 vs. 2.9%, p &lt; 0.001) and stroke. TAVR was associated with lower rates of acute kidney injury, new dialysis, cardiac complications, acquired pneumonia, sepsis, mechanical ventilation, tracheostomy, non-routine discharge, and shorter length of stay; however, TAVR was associated with more pacemaker implantation and higher cost. Of the patients receiving TAVR, the presence of AF was associated with an increased rate of complications and increased medical resource usage compared to those without AF.Conclusions: In-hospital mortality and stroke for TAVR and SAVR in AF, AS are similar; however, the in-hospital mortality in TAVR AF is declining and associated with more favorable in-hospital outcomes.
