Pulmonary valve replacement after right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction with homograft vs Contegra®: a case control comparison of mortality and morbidity.

ABSTRACT: Repair of congenital heart defects involving the right ventricular outflow tract may require the implantation of a right ventricle to pulmonary artery conduit. This conduit is likely to be replaced during childhood. This study compares the operative outcomes of the replacement procedure of Contegra® and homografts in pulmonary position.From 1999 to 2016, 82 children underwent 87 right ventricle to pulmonary artery conduit replacements (60 Contegra® and 27 homografts). Demographics, operative and clinical data were obtained through a retrospective review of the medical records. The two groups were matched for comparison using propensity score matching. All the procedures were performed by the same team of surgeons.No statistically significant difference was observed between the two groups when considering the operative data for anesthesia, surgery, cardiopulmonary bypass and aortic clamping durations. A peroperative complication rate of 13.47% and 15.36% in Contegra® and homograft replacement groups respectively (p value?=?0.758) was observed. There was no difference regarding the blood loss and fluid input. No statistically significant difference was observed between the two groups for the post-operative morbidity. We considered the Pediatric Risk of Mortality (PRISM) score, the day of extubation, the day of withdrawal of inotropic drugs, the length of the intensive care unit stay and the length of hospital stay. The overall mortality is 2.3% but there is no statistically significant difference between the two groups.Right ventricle to pulmonary artery conduit replacement procedure can be achieved with a low surgical morbidity or mortality, not influenced by the type of conduit that is replaced. Therefore, the choice between homograft or Contegra® for right ventricle to pulmonary artery reconstruction should not be influenced by the future surgical risk during the replacement procedure.NCT03048071 .

Project description:BACKGROUND:Left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction is a leading cause of mortality and exclusion from transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR). Intentional laceration of the anterior mitral valve leaflet to prevent LVOT obstruction (LAMPOON) is a transcatheter mimic of surgical chord-sparing leaflet resection. OBJECTIVES:The purpose of this prospective multicenter trial was to study LAMPOON with transseptal (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, California) TMVR in annuloplasty rings or native mitral annular calcification (MAC). METHODS:Subjects at high or extreme surgical risk and prohibitive risk of LVOT obstruction from TMVR were included. Eligibility was modified midtrial to exclude subjects with threatened LVOT obstruction from a Sapien 3 valve fabric skirt. The primary endpoint was procedure survival with successful LAMPOON, with successful TMVR, without reintervention, and with LVOT gradient <30 mm Hg ("optimal") or <50 mm Hg ("acceptable"). Secondary endpoints included 30-day mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events. There was universal source-data verification and independent monitoring. All endpoints were independently adjudicated. Central laboratories analyzed echocardiogram and CT images. RESULTS:Between June 2017 and June 2018, 30 subjects were enrolled equally between the MAC and ring arms. LAMPOON traversal and midline laceration was successful in 100%. Procedure survival was 100%, and 30-day survival was 93%. Primary success was achieved in 73%, driven by additional procedures for paravalvular leak (10%) and high-skirt neo-LVOT gradients observed before a protocol amendment. There were no strokes. CONCLUSIONS:LAMPOON was feasible in native and annuloplasty ring anatomies in patients who were otherwise ineligible for treatment, with acceptable safety. LAMPOON was effective in preventing LVOT obstruction from TMVR. Despite LAMPOON, TMVR using Sapien 3 in annuloplasty rings and MAC still exhibits important limitations.
