Résumé

Structural valve deterioration (SVD) remains the major determinant of bioprosthesis durability. The aim of this study was to investigate the SVD incidence, predictors and outcomes in patients aged 50 years and younger after bioprosthetic aortic valve replacement (bAVR). We retrospectively analyzed 73 consecutive patients ≤50 years old who underwent bioprosthetic AVR at our center between 2005 and 2015. Median age at surgery was 44 (interquartile range [IQR]: 39-47) years. Follow-up was 93.2% complete at a median time of 7.2 (IQR: 5.5-9.5) years. Cumulative follow-up was 545.5 valve-years. Bioprosthesis SVD was determined by strict echocardiographic assessment. The overall survival-rate at 10/15 years and freedom from SVD at 10/12.5 years were 89.6 ± 5.2%/81.5 ± 9.1% and 73.5 ± 8.2%/41.9 ± 18.9%, respectively. SVD occurred at a median time of 8.2 (IQR: 6.0-9.9) years after bAVR. Age was not found as an independent predictor for SVD at the multivariable model, despite a higher rate of SVD in the age group ≤30 years. Freedom from reoperation due to SVD at 10/15 years was 71.3 ± 14.1%/13.6 ± 12.3%. Reoperation was performed at a median time of 10.0 (IQR: 8.9-11.9) years since first bAVR and was associated with a 100% 12-month survival. In our study, the rate and time of SVD occurrence were comparable to those of other studies' older age groups. Strict echocardiographic monitoring of valve performance is mandatory to set the appropriate timing of eventual reoperation. This attitude can improve outcomes of bAVR in younger patients.

Background UNASSIGNED
Structural valve deterioration (SVD) remains the major determinant of bioprosthesis durability. The aim of this study was to investigate the SVD incidence, predictors and outcomes in patients aged 50 years and younger after bioprosthetic aortic valve replacement (bAVR).
Methods UNASSIGNED
We retrospectively analyzed 73 consecutive patients ≤50 years old who underwent bioprosthetic AVR at our center between 2005 and 2015. Median age at surgery was 44 (interquartile range [IQR]: 39-47) years. Follow-up was 93.2% complete at a median time of 7.2 (IQR: 5.5-9.5) years. Cumulative follow-up was 545.5 valve-years. Bioprosthesis SVD was determined by strict echocardiographic assessment.
Results UNASSIGNED
The overall survival-rate at 10/15 years and freedom from SVD at 10/12.5 years were 89.6 ± 5.2%/81.5 ± 9.1% and 73.5 ± 8.2%/41.9 ± 18.9%, respectively. SVD occurred at a median time of 8.2 (IQR: 6.0-9.9) years after bAVR. Age was not found as an independent predictor for SVD at the multivariable model, despite a higher rate of SVD in the age group ≤30 years. Freedom from reoperation due to SVD at 10/15 years was 71.3 ± 14.1%/13.6 ± 12.3%. Reoperation was performed at a median time of 10.0 (IQR: 8.9-11.9) years since first bAVR and was associated with a 100% 12-month survival.
Conclusions UNASSIGNED
In our study, the rate and time of SVD occurrence were comparable to those of other studies' older age groups. Strict echocardiographic monitoring of valve performance is mandatory to set the appropriate timing of eventual reoperation. This attitude can improve outcomes of bAVR in younger patients.
