The follow-up study of edge to edge mitral repair in children / 中华胸心血管外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the operation of long-term effect of edge to edge mitral repair for mitral vavle moderateto-severe insufficiency in children retrospectively.Methods Clinical dates of 102 patients who underwent edge to edge mitrel valve repair in Nanjing Children's Hospital from March 2003 to March 2015 were collected.Postoperative thoracic echocardiography was adopted to observe the effect of mitral valve forming and evaluate the follow-up results.Results The whole group of 2 patients died in hospital,Followed up for 1 months to 12 years,during the follow-up of 10 patients were lost.The early fol low-up,medium-term follow-up and long-term follow-up were completed 93,55 and 26 cases,respectively.In the early followup,6 patients had recurrent moderate mitral regurgitation(MR),and 5 patients had recurrent moderate-to-severe MR and reoperated during the follow-up period,a total of 2 cases died.In the medium-term follow up,moderate and severe MR were found in 6 and 4 cases,respectively.Three patients accepted reoperation,two patients died.In the long-term follow-up,1 case had recurrent severe MR,2 cases had re-operation and had no death.Early survival rate was 97.8 ％ (91/93),avoid reoperation rate was 94.6％ (88/93).The incidence of moderate or severe mitral regurgitation was 11.8％ (11/93).Midtcrm survival rate was 96.4％ (53/55),avoid reoperation rate was 94.6％ (52/55),moderate or severe mitral regurgitation rate was 18.2％ (10/55).Long-term follow-up have no death,avoid reoperation rate was 92.3 ％ (24/26),mitral valve moderate and above reflux rate was 7.7 ％ (2/26).The actuarial survival and freedom from MV reoperation rate was (92.4 ± 2.4) ％ and (77.7 ± 6.4) ％ at 10 years,respectively.Conclusion Edge to edge mitral repair in the treatment of children with moderate to severe mitral insufficiency had relatively stable curative effect,relatively fewer complications,and high long-term clinical effect.
