RESUMO

AIMS: Transaortic (TAo) and transapical (TA) implantation can be used in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) when the transfemoral (TF) approach is precluded. We compare the safety and efficacy of these alternative techniques. METHODS: From October 2007 to February 2016, TAo and TA patients' data were collected. Propensity score inverse probability of treatment weight (IPTW) method was employed to minimize the impact of no-randomization bias. RESULTS: From our single-center non-TF-TAVI registry, 282 patients were included: 235 (83.3%) underwent TAo and 47 (16.7%) TA. Differences in baseline characteristics were statistically significant in age, sex, risk profile according to logistic-EuroSCORE, and previous cardiac surgery. No difference in hospital morbidity and mortality, but lower stroke-rate in TAo (1.27% vs. 8.5% p < .01) was observed. This was confirmed at logistic regression after IPTW adjustment (odds ratio [OR]: 0.16, 95% CI 0.03-0.71, p = .01), together with reduced risk of the paravalvular leak (PVL) (OR: 0.14, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.02-0.81, p = .02). Kaplan-Meier estimates did not demonstrate differences in long-term mortality among access routes (logrank test p = .13). At the IPTW-Cox regression model, long-term mortality was related to New York Heart Association III-IV (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.92, 95% CI: 1.15-7.40, p = .026), chronic renal failure (HR: 3.25; 95% CI: 1.02-10.32 p = .046), previous transient ischemic attack/stroke (HR: 2.29, 95% CI: 1.25-4.20 p = .007). Sapien-3 device resulted to be a protective factor, reducing long-term mortality (HR: 0.18, 95% CI 0.04- 0.90 p = .03). CONCLUSIONS: TAo is safe and feasible in case of contraindication to femoral approach demonstrating comparable midterm outcomes to TA, thus representing a central access alternative, to increase the overall safety of high-risk TAVI procedures.

RESUMO

A 92-year-old man with acute heart failure due to severe aortic stenosis underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Computed tomography demonstrated severe stenosis of the right common iliac artery, occlusion of the left external iliac artery, and stenosis of the left subclavian artery. Severe calcification was observed in the sinotubular junction, which was considered a risk factor for aortic dissection with transapical TAVI using a balloon-expanding bioprosthetic valve. Therefore, transaortic (TAo) access was the only option for this high-risk surgical patient. As the maximum distance from the aortic valve annulus to the sheath insertion point was less than 60 mm, TAVI was performed transaortically using a vascular graft that extended this distance, in order to avoid sheath dislocation. Our experience demonstrates that vascular graft application is a viable option in patients with an inadequate distance between the aortic valve annulus and the puncture site in TAo-TAVI.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is now a well-established therapeutic option in an elderly high-risk patient cohort with aortic valve disease. Although most commonly performed via a transfemoral route, alternative approaches for TAVI are constantly being improved. Instead of the classical mini-sternotomy, it is possible to achieve a transaortic access via a right anterior mini-thoracotomy in the second intercostal space. We describe our experience with this sternum- and rib-sparing technique in comparison to the classical transaortic approach. METHODS: Our retrospective study includes 173 patients who were treated in our institution between January 2017 and April 2020 with transaortic TAVI via either upper mini-sternotomy or intercostal thoracotomy. The primary endpoint was 30-day mortality, and secondary endpoints were defined as major postoperative complications that included admission to the intensive care unit and overall hospital stay, according to the Valve Academic Research Consortium 3. RESULTS: Eighty-two patients were treated with TAo-TAVI by upper mini-sternotomy, while 91 patients received the intercostal approach. Both groups were comparable in age (mean age: 82 years) and in the proportion of female patients. The intercostal group had a higher rate of peripheral artery disease (41% vs. 22%, p = 0.008) and coronary artery disease (71% vs. 40%, p < 0.001) with a history of percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass grafting, resulting in significantly higher preinterventional risk evaluation (EuroScore II 8% in the intercostal vs. 4% in the TAo group, p = 0.005). Successful device implantation and a reduction of the transvalvular gradient were achieved in all cases with a significantly lower rate of trace to mild paravalvular leakage in the intercostal group (12% vs. 33%, p < 0.001). The intercostal group required significantly fewer blood transfusions (0 vs. 2 units, p = 0.001) and tended to require less reoperation (7% vs. 15%, p = 0.084). Hospital stays (9 vs. 12 d, p = 0.011) were also shorter in the intercostal group. Short- and long-term survival in the follow-up showed comparable results between the two approaches (30-day, 6-month- and 2-year mortality: 7%, 23% and 36% in the intercostal vs. 9%, 26% and 33% in the TAo group) with acute kidney injury (AKI) and reintubation being independent risk factors for mortality. CONCLUSIONS: Transaortic TAVI via an intercostal access offers a safe and effective treatment of aortic valve stenosis.
