RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: In this study, we aimed to determine the incidence of patient prosthesis mismatch (PPM) and its effects on ejection fraction (EF), gradients, and late survival. METHODS: 200 patients who underwent isolated mechanical AVR between March 2013 and May 2016 were retrospectively evaluated based on patient records. RESULTS: 200 patients were included in the study. No PPM was detected in 42 (21%) patients, moderate PPM in 122 (61%), and severe PPM in 36 (18%) patients. A significant decrease was found in all groups in terms of mean valve gradients and LVMI (preoperative LVMI compared with postoperative LVMI at the 12th month) (P < .001). A 30% decrease in mean LVMI in the no PPM and moderate PPM groups and a 20% decrease in the severe PPM group were detected at the 6th month. CONCLUSION: In our postoperative data, we found that EF was preserved, the transvalvular gradient reduced, and LVMI decreased. There was no difference in mortality rates between the control (no PPM) group and the moderate PPM group. Taking into account our patient groups, we can say that no-to-moderate PPM has no major effect on left ventricular remodeling in patients with preserved left ventricular functions.

RESUMO

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is an important consequence of heart failure (HF) patients, which increases hospitalization and mortality rates. The MitraClip procedure is increasingly preferred for HF patients with obvious MR to improve MR and related symptoms. In some cases, patients may need further intervention such as left ventricular assist device implantation with the aim of improving progressive clinical deterioration caused by the progression of HF or mitral clip associated complications (i.e., detachment or mitral stenosis). This case study summarizes our two patients who received concomitant mitral clip removal and left ventricular assist device implantation with clinically successful results.

RESUMO

Surgical treatments for heart failure patients are being increasingly performed every year. While experiences in this field are increasing, transition to alternative surgical approaches to minimize incisions is gaining popularity. However, there are clinics that still avoid performing these techniques. In the current study, we aim to present our experiences in transitioning to a minimally invasive technique by comparing two groups. One group was operated with a minimally invasive technique that has been performed in the learning curve period, while the second was operated with a familiar and standard technique. One hundred twenty patients who were implanted with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) from April 2015 to January 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The first 30 LVAD-implanted patients via less invasive approach (since April 2017) were included in group 1, and the last 30 isolated LVAD implanted patients via standard full sternotomy were included in group 2. Early clinical outcomes were compared between these two groups. There were no significant differences between two groups in terms of demographic features and preoperative statuses. Group 1 had significantly lesser mortality rates, cardiopulmonary bypass times, drainages, and blood products. Hospital stays had no significant difference between the groups, while extubation times and ICU stays were significantly lesser in group 1. Left ventricular assist device implantation through thoracotomy and ministernotomy is as feasible as that done through the conventional full sternotomy technique. In this group of patients with a high risk of bleeding, besides providing less hemorrhage, we believe that the surgical procedure was not more difficult than the conventional method.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In this study, we aimed to investigate the mid-term effects of left ventricular assist devices on kidney functions. METHODS: Between January 2015 and December 2017, a total of 61 patients (53 males, 8 females; mean age 46.4±11.2 years; range, 20 to 67 years) who underwent left ventricular assist device implantation were retrospectively analyzed. Glomerular filtration rate was evaluated preoperatively and at 24 and 48 h, at one week, and at one, three, and six months postoperatively. According to the preoperative glomerular filtration rates, the patients were divided into three groups: glomerular filtration rates ?60 mL/min/1.73 m2 ( Group 1 ), g lomerular f iltration rates 61-90 mL/min/1.73 m2 (Group 2), and glomerular filtration rates >90 mL/min/1.73 m2 (Group 3). RESULTS: In all groups, the glomerular filtration rate significantly increased at one week and one month postoperatively, compared to preoperative values (p<0.001 and p<0.01, respectively). However, the glomerular filtration values at six months significantly decreased, compared to the values at one week and one month postoperatively (p<0.001 and p<0.001, respectively). The most significant drop to preoperative values was observed in Group 3 (p=0.02) at three months and it dropped below the preoperative level at six months (p<0.001). CONCLUSION: Our study results suggest that left ventricular assist devices can significantly increase the glomerular filtration rate in short-term, irrespective of baseline values. However, this improvement may recede later, particularly in patients with normal renal functions, and it may even disappear following the third postoperative month.
