Zusammenfassung: | Reoperation was reported in 2 cases: a 60-year-old woman with severely impaired left ventricular function underwent cardiac transplantation and concomitant CV prosthesis removal, and a 30-year-old man with pre-existing mitral prosthesis dysfunction and residual moderate or severe perivalvular leak after TAVI underwent combined surgical aortic and mitral replacement with mechanical prostheses 2 months after TAVI, after the clinical and hemodynamic conditions improved, to allow a surgical approach. [...]a minimum significant reduction in mean systolic pulmonary arterial pressure was reported (from 49.5 ± 15.6 mm Hg to 43.4 ± 10.2 mm Hg, p = 0.032). |
