Modified surgery for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy with concomitantly significant mitral regurgitation through a single transaortic approach / 中华胸心血管外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To summarize the safety and effect of modified surgery for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy(HOCM) with concomitantly significant mitral regurgitation(MR) through a single transaortic approach.@*Methods@#From January 2008 to June 2018, 93 patients with HOCM and significant MR underwent modified Morrow procedure and edge-to-edge mitral valvuloplasty through a single transaortic approach. Preoperative left ventricular outflow tract pressure gradient(LVOTPG) was 51-199 mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa). Preoperative interventricular septum thickness(IVST) was 17-30 mm. All patients had significant MR with SAM phenomenon. The modified Morrow procedure and edge-to-edge mitral valvuloplasty through a single transaortic approach was performed under cardiopulmonary bypass and aortic crossclamp.@*Results@#All patients successfully underwent the surgery of modified Morrow procedure and edge-to-edge mitral valvuloplasty through a single transaortic approach. No early death and interventricular septal perforation were occurred. In the early postoperative period, two patient(2.15%) received permanent pacemaker implantation due to the complete atrial-ventricular block. At discharge, postoperative LVOTPG(7-31 mmHg) and IVST(11-19 mm) were significantly decreased compared with the preoperative values(P<0.05). All patients had none or trivial MR. The mitral valve pressure gradient(MVPG) was 0-6 mmHg. SAM phenomenon disappeared in all patients. At a mean follow-up of(40.53±27.11) months, no patient had significant residual left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. All patients had none or trivial MR. No SAM phenomenon occurred.@*Conclusion@#Modified surgery of Morrow procedure and edge-to-edge mitral valvuloplasty through a single transaortic approach could be safely and effectively applied for patients with HOCM and concomitantly significant MR.
