Transcatheter aortic valve replacement for aortic regurgitation in Asians: TAVR for aortic regurgitation in Asians.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

Although surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) is currently the recommended intervention for patients with native AR without aortic stenosis, a significant proportion of Asian patients undergo transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), which has not been studied fully for safety and outcomes. This systematic review aims to examine the characteristics and outcomes of Asian patients with pure native aortic regurgitation (AR) undergoing TAVR.

Methods and results

PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane CENTRAL were systematically searched for randomised controlled trials, observational studies and case reports publishedÂ from inception to 2 April 2020, involving patients of Asian ethnicity with pure native aortic regurgitation who had undergone TAVR. Our primary outcome was all-cause mortality, with secondary outcomes including all major complications. Five studies (n=274 patients) and eight case reports were included. Device success was reported in 94.9% of the patients, the all-cause mortality rate was 4.4%, 2.5% were converted to SAVR, 1.7% had post-operative paravalvular leak and 6.7% required permanent pacemaker implantation.

Conclusions

TAVR has demonstrated acceptable safety and efficacy in Asian patients with pure AR displaying low mortality rates and few adverse outcomes.

Project description:Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) is currently being investigated as a procedural alternative to surgical mitral valve repair or replacement (SMVR). Early data from first-in-man trials with current devices suggest that TMVR is technically feasible but carries a high mortality. This is substantially different from the early success transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has seen and is related to complexities of the mitral valve anatomy, differences in pathology that require mitral valve replacement as well as the impact that mitral valve replacement has on physiology and cardiac function, irrespective of the modality by which the mitral valve is replaced. Importantly, in the case of TAVR, a less invasive method is offered to accomplish the same as the traditional surgical intervention. On the other hand, valve replacement is not the recommended treatment option for the majority of mitral valve disease, and in fact is avoided whenever possible during surgery given the shortened life expectancy and increased morbidity with mitral valve replacement. Another distinction between TAVR and TMVR is the etiology and natural progression of the underlying disease and driving factors for intervention that are vastly different between aortic and mitral valve disease. The primary aortic disease treated has been aortic stenosis, which has several etiologic factors that cause a similar physiologic dysfunction and risk. Aortic valve replacement leads to improved survival and quality of life. The primary mitral valve disease targeted is regurgitation, which occurs as a primary valve defect and as a secondary consequence of ventricular dysfunction. Primary mitral regurgitation is treated by valve repair with excellent long-term outcomes. Secondary regurgitation has poor long-term outcomes with current commonly used repair techniques and limited data exists showing that correction of the regurgitation improves survival. Adoption of TMVR will require overcoming the anatomic challenges as well as generating data that supports improved survival and/or quality of life.

Project description:BackgroundThe improvement rate and predictors of secondary mitral regurgitation in patients with aortic regurgitation undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remain unclear. This study aimed to identify predictors of persistent moderate to severe secondary mitral regurgitation after TAVR in patients with aortic regurgitation by assessing mitral valve geometry with computed tomography (CT).MethodsThis retrospective cohort study reviewed 242 consecutive patients with aortic regurgitation who underwent TAVR between May 2014 and December 2022. Patients with primary or less than moderate mitral regurgitation were excluded. Mitral annular dimensions (area, perimeter, anteroposterior, intercommissural, and trigone-to-trigone diameter), mitral valve tenting geometry (mitral valve tenting area [MVTA] and mitral valve tenting height [MVTH]), and papillary muscle displacement were systematically measured at CT. Mitral regurgitation improvement was assessed at 3 months after TAVR by echocardiography. Logistic regression was performed to explore the association of mitral valve geometry with mitral regurgitation improvement after TAVR.ResultsA total of 75 patients (mean age, 74 ± 7 years; 32.0% female) with moderate to severe secondary mitral regurgitation were included in the final analysis. Mitral regurgitation improved in 49 patients and remained unchanged in 26 patients. Mitral annular dimensions, including area, perimeter, anteroposterior, and intercommissural diameter, were associated with mitral regurgitation improvement. MVTA and MVTH were risk factors for sustained mitral regurgitation. In addition, QRS duration > 120 ms and atrial fibrillation had an impact on the mitral regurgitation improvement. Mitral annular area (odds ratio [OR], 1.41; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.05, 1.90; p = 0.02) and MVTA (OR, 7.24; 95% CI: 1.72, 30.44; p = 0.007) were independent predictors of persistent secondary mitral regurgitation after TAVR.ConclusionsMitral annular area and MVTA were independent predictors of persistent secondary mitral regurgitation after TAVR.
