ABSTRACT
Evaluate outcomes of single leaflet aortic valve reconstruction using Ozaki sizer and template. Single institute retrospective analysis between August 2015 and August 2019. Thirty-three patients, median age 9.3 years and weight 29.2 kg underwent single leaflet Ozaki repair. Preoperative indications were AR (n = 17), AS (n = 3) or AS/AR (n = 13). Baseline anatomy was unicuspid (n = 15), bicuspid (n = 9) or tricuspid (n = 9). Two patients had endocarditis. Prior interventions included balloon valvuloplasty (n = 22) and aortic valve repair (n = 9). Pre-op average native annulus diameter was 19.6 mm and peak echo gradient was 36 mm Hg. Autologous pericardium, Photofix and CardioCel bovine pericardium were used in 26, 5, and 2 patients. Non-coronary sinus enlargement was required in 3 and aortic root reduction in 9 patients. Single leaflet reconstruction was done for the right coronary cusp (n = 25), non-coronary cusp in (n = 6) and left coronary cusp (n = 2). Additional procedures were done in 30 patients. Median ICU and hospital LOS were 2.1 and 6.3 days. There were no early re-interventions or conversions to valve replacement and one unrelated mortality.en At discharge, all patients had < moderate AR and/or AS with average peak gradients of 15 mm Hg. The median follow-up was 1.1 year, (IQR 0.7-1.8 years). Freedom from ≥ moderate AR and AS at 2 years was 76% and 86%. One patient required surgical re-intervention for severe AR 1.5 years after surgery for inflammatory infiltrate with calcification and fibrosis. Single-leaflet aortic valve leaflet reconstruction utilizing the Ozaki technique has promising early results and can be considered in patients when there are acceptable native leaflets.
