RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: Extended septal myectomy and alcohol septal ablation are 2 invasive treatments for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. Our goal was to compare which of these techniques achieved a higher reduction in gradients, improvement in New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class and reduction in medical treatment. METHODS: It is a single-centre observational and retrospective analysis. We used multivariable regression analyses to assess the association of ablation/myectomy with different outcomes. The odds ratio or coefficient along with the 95% confidence interval was estimated according to the group and adjusted for the corresponding preprocedural variables and EuroSCORE II. RESULTS: A total of 78 patients underwent septal myectomy, and 25 patients underwent alcohol septal ablation. Basal and Valsalva gradients after myectomy were reduced to a higher degree in comparison to ablation: 21.0 mmHg [P < 0.001, 95% confidence interval -30.7; -11.3], and 34.3 mmHg (P < 0.001, -49.1; -19.5) respectively. Those patients who received a myectomy had a lower probability of having moderate mitral regurgitation (odds ratio = 0.18, P = 0.054). Patients after septal myectomy were more likely to be NYHA functional class I (80.4%), whereas patients after ablation were more likely to be NYHA functional class III (48%). Both groups continued with beta-blocker therapy, but disopyramide could be discontinued after the myectomy in more cases (20%-36% vs 59%-1.3%; P < 0.001), and there was a tendency to discontinue calcium channel blockers (48%-16% vs 15.4-3.8%; P = 0.054). CONCLUSIONS: After adjustment using preprocedural gradients and EuroSCORE II, myectomy achieves greater reduction in left ventricular outflow tract gradients compared to septal ablation.

RESUMEN

Background: Infective endocarditis (IE) is a feared complication after surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR)/transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). It is not certain which procedure carries a higher risk. Our aim was to assess the risk of IE after SAVR/TAVI. Methods: We conducted an observational study of a prospective cohort, including patients with TAVI/SAVR, from March 2015 to December 2020. IE was defined according to the modified Duke's criteria. IE occurring during the first 12 months of the procedure was considered early IE, and an episode occurring after 12 months was considered late IE. The propensity score was designed to include variables previously associated with TAVI/SAVR and IE. An inverse probability of treatment weight was generated. Results: In total, 355 SAVR and 278 TAVI were included. Median follow-up, 38 vs. 41 months, p = 0.550. IE occurred in 5 SAVR (1.41%, 95% CI 0.2−2.6) vs. 13 TAVI (4.65%, 95% CI 2.2−7.2), p = 0.016. TAVI patients had more frequent early IE (3.2% vs. 0.3%, p = 0.006). In the PS analyses, IE risk did not differ: OR 0.65, 95% CI 0.32−1.32. Factors associated with TAVI IE included younger age (74y vs. 83y, p = 0.030), complicated diabetes mellitus (38.5% vs. 6.8%, p = 0.002), COPD (46.2% vs. 16.3%, p = 0.015), advanced heart failure (100% vs. 52.9%, p < 0.001), and peripheral arteriopathy (61.5% vs. 26.7%, p = 0.011). Conclusions: Early IE was higher with TAVI, but in the PS analyses, the risk attributable to each procedure was similar. Studies are needed to identify and optimize the risk factors of IE prior to TAVI.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study was to analyse early- and long-term outcomes of aortic valve reimplantation (David operation) in patients with heritable thoracic aortic disease. METHODS: This is a retrospective observational analysis using data from a prospectively maintained surgical database from March 2004 to April 2021. Patients with heritable thoracic aortic disease were included in the study. RESULTS: A total of 157 patients with aortic root aneurysm with the diagnosis of heritable thoracic aortic disease received the David procedure. Marfan syndrome was found in 143 (91.1%) patients, Loeys-Dietz in 13 and Ehler-Danlos in 1 patient. The median age was 35.0 (IQR: 17.5) years and the median ascending aorta diameter in the Valsalva sinuses was 48 mm (IQR: 4). A Valsalva graft was used in 8 patients; the David V technique was performed in the rest of the cases. The median follow-up time was 7.3 years [standard deviation: 0.58, 95% confidence interval (CI): 6.12-8.05]. Only 2 patients died during the follow-up period. The overall survival was 99% (95% CI: 95%; 99%); 98% (95% CI: 92%; 99%); and 98% (95% CI: 92%; 99%) at 5, 10 and 15 years. Freedom from significant aortic regurgitation (AR> II), reintervention and postoperative type-B dissection was 90% (95% CI: 77%; 95%), 96% (95% CI: 91%; 99%) and 87% (95% CI: 68%; 95%) at 15 years, respectively. No differences were found in any outcome between Marfan syndrome and Loeys-Dietz syndrome. No statistically significant differences in survival were found when we compared expected gender- and age-specific population survival values. CONCLUSIONS: The David operation is an excellent option for the treatment of patients with heritable thoracic aortic disease and dilatated aortic root. Surgical expertise in referral centres is essential to achieve the best long-term results.
