Transapical aortic valve implantation using a Symetis Acurate self-expandable bioprosthesis: initial outcomes of 10 patients.

ABSTRACT: Transapical aortic valve implantation (TA-AVI) has been widely introduced for treatment of patients with severe aortic stenosis in the last decade. Here we report our first clinical experience with 10 patients using the second-generation transapical Symetis Acurate TA aortic valve designed for transapical implantation.To evaluate the results of transapical access in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) among patients with unsuitable vascular access.All patients had been assessed by a local heart team and were disqualified from surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR) and the transfemoral TAVI approach. Mean age was 75.4 ±3.9 years (range: 68-80), with 20% being female. Logistic EuroSCORE (European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation) and STS (Society of Thoracic Surgeons) were 15.4 ±8.9% and 20.5 ±4.5%, respectively.All implantations were performed successfully in the intra-annular and subcoronary position. There were no conversions to surgical AVR. All patients survived 30-day follow-up. No strokes or transient ischemic attacks were reported. There was no need for pacemaker implantation and none of the patients demonstrated moderate or significant paravalvular leakage. The mean aortic gradients improved significantly from a baseline of 57.0 ±19.2 mm Hg to a 30-day value of 14.2 ±4.1 mm Hg.Our initial clinical results indicate satisfactory functionality in patients after trans-apical implantation of the Symetis Acurate aortic valve. The procedure of implantation seems to be straightforward and may be considered in patients in whom a transfemoral approach is not a good option.

Self-expandable transcatheter aortic valve implantation for aortic stenosis after mitral valve surgery.

Project description:Transcatheter aortic valve implantation has emerged as a valuable option to treat patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis, who are not being considered for surgery because of significant comorbidities. Concerns exist over treating patients who have previously undergone mitral valve surgery for possible interference between the percutaneous aortic valve and the mitral prosthesis or ring.At our centre, from May 2008 to December 2012, 172 patients (76 male) with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis were eligible for transcatheter aortic valve implant. Nine patients, affected by severe aortic stenosis, had previously undergone mitral valve surgery (4 mono-leaflet, 3 bileaflet, 1 bioprosthesis, 1 mitral ring); they were considered high-risk surgical candidates following joint evaluation by cardiac surgeons and cardiologist and had undergone TAVI.Seven patients underwent standard femoral retrograde CoreValve(®) (Medtronic Inc., Minneapolis, USA) implantation, two patients underwent a direct aortic implantation through a mini-thoracotomy. All patients experienced immediate improvement of their haemodynamic status. No deformation of the nitinol tubing of the CoreValve, nor distortion or malfunction of the mechanical valve or mitral ring, occurred as assessed by echographical and fluoroscopic evaluation. No major postoperative complications occurred. In all patients , echocardiography indicated normal valve function during follow-up.Our experience confirms the feasibility of CoreValve implantation in patients with mechanical mitral valves or mitral annuloplasty ring.

Pacemaker Implantation After Balloon- or Self-Expandable Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Aortic Stenosis.

Project description:Background The incidence of conduction abnormalities requiring permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with early and later generation prostheses remains debated. Methods and Results Based on the administrative hospital-discharge database, we collected information for all patients treated with TAVR between 2010 and 2019 in France. We compared the incidence of PPI after TAVR according to the type and generation of valve implanted. A total of 49 201 patients with aortic stenosis treated with TAVR using the balloon-expandable (BE) Edwards SAPIEN valve (early Sapien XT and latest Sapien 3) or the self-expanding (SE) Medtronic CoreValve (early CoreValve and latest Evolut R) were found in the database. Mean (SD) follow-up was 1.2 (1.5 years) (median [interquartile range] 0.6 [0.1-2.0] years). PPI after the procedure was reported in 13 289 patients, among whom 11 010 (22.4%) had implantation during the first 30 days. In multivariable analysis, using early BE TAVR as reference, adjusted odds ratio (95% CI) for PPI during the first 30 days was 0.88 (0.81-0.95) for latest BE TAVR, 1.40 (1.27-1.55) for early SE TAVR, and 1.17 (1.07-1.27) for latest SE TAVR. Compared with early BE TAVR, the adjusted hazard ratio for PPI during the whole follow-up was 1.01 (0.95-1.08) for latest BE TAVR, 1.30 (1.21-1.40) for early SE TAVR, and 1.25 (1.18-1.34) for latest SE TAVR. Conclusions In patients with aortic stenosis treated with TAVR, our systematic analysis at a nationwide level found higher rates of PPI than previously reported. BE technology was independently associated with lower incidence rates of PPI both at the acute and chronic phases than SE technology. Recent generations of TAVR were not independently associated with different rates of PPI than early generations during the overall follow-up.

Balloon-Expandable versus Self-Expandable Valves in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: Complications and Outcomes from a Large International Patient Cohort.

Project description:Both balloon-expandable (BE) and self-expandable (SE) valves for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) are broadly used in clinical practice. However, adequately powered randomized controlled trials comparing these two valve designs are lacking. The CENTER-study included 12,381 patients undergoing transfemoral TAVI. Patients undergoing TAVI with a BE-valve (n = 4096) were compared to patients undergoing TAVI with an SE-valve (n = 4096) after propensity score matching. Clinical outcomes including one-year mortality and stroke rates were assessed. In the matched population of n = 5410 patients, the mean age was 81 ± 3 years, 60% was female, and the STS-PROM predicted 30-day mortality was 6.2% (IQR 4.0-12.4). One-year mortality was not different between patients treated with BE- or SE-valves (BE: 16.4% vs. SE: 17.0%, Relative Risk 1.04, 95%CI 0.02-1.21, p = 0.57). One-year stroke rates were also comparable (BE: 4.9% vs. SE: 5.3%, RR 1.09, 95%CI 0.86-1.37, p = 0.48). This study suggests that one-year mortality and stroke rates were comparable in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis undergoing TAVI with either BE or SE-valves.

Cusp thrombosis of a self-expandable sutureless aortic valve treated by valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation procedure: case report.

Project description:BackgroundSurgical implantation rates of bioprosthetic valves, especially the use of sutureless or rapid deployment valves, as well as the advent of transcatheter valve implantation (TAVR) have increased during the last decades mainly due to their excellent haemodynamic and clinical results. One common characteristic of all bioprosthetic types of surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) and TAVR is the risk of early degeneration, which leads to valve-dysfunction and is associated with higher rates of valve reinterventions. Recent studies have demonstrated that cusp thrombosis may play a role in early valve dysfunction. This case report is, to our knowledge, the first documentation on a successful treatment of early aortic valve (AV) degeneration of a sutureless AV thrombosis with a valve-in-valve (ViV) TAVR implantation.Case summaryA 77 years old woman was re-evaluated from the heart-team, which considered the following characteristics: severe impairment of mobility and frailty with an STS-score of 10.01% and a EuroSCORE II of 6.9%. Due to the high surgical risk for SAVR, we decided to perform a ViV-TAVR using a balloonexpandable bioprosthesis. The procedure was performed via transfemoral access under general anaesthesia using a 23 mm Edwards-Sapien 3 bioprosthesis without balloon-valvuloplasty and with nominal-volume dilation under rapid-pacing.DiscussionThe differentiation of bioprosthesis valve thrombosis, and hypoattenuating leaflet thickening vs. structural valve degeneration can be difficult, and a multimodality imaging approach, comprising trans-thoracic echocardiogram, transoesophageal echocardiography and computed tomography, useful. These investigations are very important to decide the right strategy of surgical valve replacement vs. TAVR.

Micro-dislodgement during transcatheter aortic valve implantation with a contemporary self-expandable prosthesis.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:To evaluate the incidence, risk factors and the clinical outcome of micro-dislodgement (MD) with a contemporary self-expandable prosthesis during transcatheter aortic valve implantation. METHODS:MD was defined as movement of the prosthesis of at least 1.5 mm upwards or downwards from its position directly before release compared to its final position. Patients were grouped according to the occurrence (+MD) or absence (-MD) of MD. Baseline characteristics, imaging data and outcome parameters were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS:We identified 258 eligible patients. MD occurred in 31.8% (n = 82) of cases with a mean magnitude of 2.8 mm ± 2.2 in relation to the left coronary cusp and 3.0 mm ± 2.1 to the non-coronary cusp. Clinical and hemodynamic outcomes were similar in both groups with consistency over a follow-up period of three months. A larger aortic valve area (AVA) (-MD vs. +MD: 0.6 cm2 ± 0.3 vs. 0.7cm2 ± 0.2; p = 0.014), was the only independent risk factor for the occurrence of MD in a multivariate regression analysis (OR 5.3; 95% CI: 1.1-24.9; p = 0.036). CONCLUSIONS:MD occurred in nearly one third of patients and did not affect clinical and hemodynamic outcome. A larger AVA seems to be a potential risk factor for MD.

Delayed Valsalva obstruction after transcatheter self-expandable aortic valve implantation: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundDelayed coronary obstruction after transcatheter aortic valve implantation has been reported to occur more commonly after self-expandable aortic valve implantation than balloon-expandable valve.Case summaryAn 86-year-old woman treated by transcatheter self-expandable aortic valve implantation had acute coronary syndrome 3 months after the procedure. Emergent coronary angiography showed decreased blood flow in the left coronary artery. Balloon angioplasty between the valve frame and the left coronary cusp was performed, and her ischaemia resolved. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed a commissural post of the supra-annular valve overlying the left coronary cusp, and serial computed tomography showed the valve frame expanding over time. She received coronary bypass grafting using saphenous vein grafts for the left anterior descending and left circumflex arteries. Four months after surgery for the left anterior descending artery, the patient had recurrent chest pain, and computed tomography showed a graft occlusion in the left anterior descending artery. Shortly afterwards, she died of sudden cardiac arrest.DiscussionIn this report, we describe delayed Valsalva obstruction after transcatheter self-expandable aortic valve implantation, which can be detectable by serial computed tomography. The sealing of a coronary cusp by a commissural post of the valve may be one of the causes of delayed coronary ischaemia after transcatheter self-expandable aortic valve implantation.

Clinical and structural outcomes of neocommissural alignment in transaxillary and transcarotid transcatheter aortic valve implantation with a self-expandable transcatheter heart valve.

Project description:ObjectivesThis study analyzes neocommissural alignment and the clinical and hemodynamic outcomes after transaxillary and transcarotid implantation of the Acurate neo2 transcatheter heart valve.MethodsWe performed a retrospective, single-center analysis of early outcomes after transaxillary and transcarotid implantation of the Acurate neo2 transcatheter heart valve. Primary outcomes were neocommisural alignment, in-hospital mortality, and valve hemodynamic performance. Commissural alignment between native and transcatheter heart valves was assessed by transesophageal echocardiogram before and after the procedure.ResultsBetween October 2021 and November 2022, 40 consecutive patients were treated with the Acurate neo2 through a transaxillary or transcarotid approach. Access was achieved via the left subclavian artery in 30 cases and the left common carotid artery in 10 cases, with a mean vessel diameter of 6.7 mm. Implants most commonly used were size M (37.5%), L (35%), and S (27.5%). On the basis of transesophageal echocardiogram analysis, there was no significant difference in mean commissural orientation between native (mean, 65.1°; SD, 41.3°) and neocommissures (mean, 64°; SD, 44.1°) (P = .661). Mean commissural orientation did not significantly differ between native and neocommissures (P = .661). Optimal alignment or mild commissural misalignment was achieved in 99.5% of cases. There were no cases of severe commissural misalignment. Postprocedural mean values for peak and mean gradients were 12.7 mm Hg and 5.2 mm Hg, respectively. There were 2 cases of moderate paravalvular leak and 4 cases of mild paravalvular leak.ConclusionsThis patient-specific technique for transaxillary and transcarotid insertion of the Acurate neo2 delivery system prevents implantations with more than mild commissural misalignment and with a high device success rate.

Repositionable Versus Balloon-Expandable Devices for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in Patients With Aortic Stenosis.

Project description:The safety and effectiveness of the fully repositionable LOTUS valve system as compared with the balloon-expandable Edwards SAPIEN 3 prosthesis for the treatment of aortic stenosis has not been evaluated to date. All patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation with the Edwards SAPIEN 3 or the LOTUS valve system were included into the Swiss Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Registry. An adjusted analysis was performed to compare the early clinical safety outcome according to the Valve Academic Research Consortium-2 definition. Between February 2014 and September 2015, 140 and 815 patients were treated with the LOTUS and the Edwards SAPIEN 3 valve, respectively. There was no difference in crude and adjusted analyses of the early safety outcome between patients treated with LOTUS (14.3%) and those treated with Edwards SAPIEN 3 (14.6%) (crude hazard ratio, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.61-1.56 [P=0.915]; adjusted hazard ratio, 1.03; 95% CI, 0.64-1.67 [P=0.909]). More than mild aortic regurgitation was <2% for both devices. A total of 34.3% of patients treated with LOTUS and 14.1% of patients treated with Edwards SAPIEN 3 required a permanent pacemaker (HR, 2.76; 95% CI, 1.97-3.87 [P<0.001]). The repositionable LOTUS valve system and the balloon-expandable Edwards SAPIEN 3 prosthesis appeared comparable in regard to the Valve Academic Research Consortium-2 early safety outcome, and the rates of more than mild aortic regurgitation were exceedingly low for both devices. The need for new permanent pacemaker implantation was more frequent among patients treated with the LOTUS valve.

SOURCE 3: 1-year outcomes post-transcatheter aortic valve implantation using the latest generation of the balloon-expandable transcatheter heart valve.

Project description:AimsTranscatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has developed from a procedure for patients with aortic stenosis inoperable or high risk for surgery, into a treatment option even for intermediate risk elderly patients. This development has been facilitated by the clinical learning curve and constant improvements of transcatheter heart valves used. We present total 1-year results of SOURCE 3, the European post-approval multicentre registry of the latest generation balloon expandable SAPIEN 3TM (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA, USA).Methods and resultsParticipating centres have submitted their consecutive experience with the SAPIEN 3, dependent on patients consent. Data were prospectively collected and all end point-related outcomes adjudicated according to VARC-2 definitions by an independent committee. Between July 2014 and October 2015, in total 1946 patients (mean age 81.6 ± 6.7 years, 52% male) were enrolled in 80 centres from 10 European countries. At 1 year, all-cause mortality was 12.6%, cardiovascular mortality 8.0%, stroke 3.1%, disabling stroke 1.4%, and rate of new pacemakers 13.2%. Causes of death were 62.0% cardiovascular and 38.0% non-cardiovascular, with heart failure (13.4%) and pulmonary complications (12.7%) being the main reasons for fatal outcomes. Multivariable analysis identified New York Heart Association Class IV and renal insufficiency as predictors of mortality, while higher BMI's improved survival. Severe (zero) and moderate paravalvular leakage (2.6%) was rare at 1 year.ConclusionIn SOURCE 3, we observe a low complication rate and mortality at 1 year. Given the low incidence of higher degree paravalvular leakages, this variable did no longer affect outcome. Clinicaltrial.gov number: NCT02698956.
