Isolated mitral valve replacement with St. Jude medical prosthesis: long-term results: a follow-up of 19 years.
BACKGROUND In this retrospective study, approximately 440 patients received mitral valve replacements with the St Jude Medical prosthesis. The last patient was operated on 10 years before the beginning of the follow-up. The extended follow-up was 19 years.

متن کاملIsolated mitral and aortic valve replacement with the St. Jude Medical valve: a midterm follow-up.
BACKGROUND In our country, the biological valvular prostheses predominate, considering the difficulties related to anticoagulation, even in young patients, in spite of the need for repeated operations due to the degeneration of the bioprostheses. OBJECTIVES To report our consecutive series of recipients of isolated St Jude Medical mechanical valve prosthesis in the mitral (MVR) or aortic (AVR...
متن کاملThe St. Jude Medical cardiac valve prosthesis: a 25-year experience with single valve replacement.
BACKGROUND From October 1977 to October 2002, 4,480 patients (age range, 17 to 94 years; average, 64 +/- 13 years) underwent single valve replacement with the St. Jude Medical heart valve. Of 2,982 aortic (AVR) and 1,498 mitral valve replacements (MVR), concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting was performed on 42% and 33%, respectively. METHODS Cardiac Surgical Associates has maintained an...

patient-year), major bleeding events (1.0%/patient-year), and aortic valve reoperation (0.26%/patient-year). They also reported that valve-related death was the most common cause of death (26.8%) and that the rates of freedom from valve-related death were 96.2%, 92.7%, 88.8%, and 86.6% at 5, 10, 15, and 20 years, respectively. These results compare favorably with the findings of previous report...
متن کاملReplacement of the aortic valve in patients under 50 years of age: long-term follow-up of the St. Jude Medical prosthesis.
BACKGROUND Aortic valve replacement in the young adult (aged 18 to 50 years) is a choice between a mechanical prosthesis with attendant lifelong anticoagulation or biological prostheses of varying types that may have limited life expectancy in this age group. METHODS The Cardiac Surgical Research Foundation database was accessed to determine long-term outcomes in patients having aortic valve ...
