Aim. To examine an opportunity of sinus rhythm recovery in patients with mitral valve disease and atrial fibrillation (AF) by the means of surgery and concomitant procedures. Methods. 180 patients with AF who underwent mitral valve surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass in 2007-2011 were examined. Patients’ mean age was 52.5±0.5 years, 71 (39.4%) were male, 109 (60.6%) - female. Patients were divided into 3 groups: 22 patients with paroxysmal AF were included in Group I. 109 patients with persistent AF who underwent mitral valve surgery only were allocated to the Group II. 49 patients with persistent AF who underwent additional pulmonary vein isolation (radiofrequency ablation) were included in the Group III. Results. 83 (46.1%) of patients had single mitral valve disease, 62 (34.4%) of patients had multiple valve disease with involvement of tricuspid valve, 21 (11.7%) of patients had multiple valve disease with involvement of aortic valve, 21 (11.7%) of patients had all abovementioned valves involved. Mean arrhythmia duration was 36.3±3.8 months. Sinus rhythm was restored during the surgery in 16 (72.7%) patients of the Group I, in 60 (55.0%) patients of the Group II, in 41 (83.7%) patients of the Group III. Sinus rhythm was still registered at the discharge in 14 (63.6%), 19 (17.4%) and 13 (26.5%) respectively. Conclusion. It is possible to recover and hold regular rhythm in early postoperative period in more than 60% of cases in patients who underwent surgery for mitral valve disease and concomitant paroxysmal AF. Simultaneous radiofrequency ablation performed in patients with persistent AF increases sinus rhythm recovery rate in first day after surgery.

Abstract Introduction Totally endoscopic technique has been widely used in cardiac surgery, and minimally invasive totally endoscopic mitral valve surgery has been developed as an alternative to median sternotomy for many patients with mitral valve disease. In this study, we describe our experience about a modified minimally invasive totally endoscopic mitral valve surgery and reported the preliminary results of totally endoscopic mitral valve surgery. The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate the results of totally endoscopic technique in mitral valve surgery. Material and methods We retrospectively reviewed the profiles of 188 patients who were treated for mitral valve disease by modified totally endoscopic mitral valve surgery at our institution between January 2019 and December 2020. The procedure was performed under endoscopic right minithoracotomy and with femoro-femoral cannulation using the single two-stage venous cannula. Results A total of 188 patients underwent total endoscopic mitral valve surgery. Fifty-six patients had concomitant tricuspid valvuloplasty, 11 patients underwent concomitant ablation of atrial fibrillation and atrial septal defect repair was performed in three patients. Only one patient postoperatively died of multi-organ failure. Two patients were converted to median sternotomy. Except for one patient underwent operation to stop the bleeding from the incision site, no other serious complications nor reintervention occurred during the follow-up period. Conclusions The modified totally endoscopic mitral valve surgery performed at our institution is technically feasible and safe with the same efficacy as reported studies.
