Tricuspid valve replacement: the effect of gender on operative results.
BACKGROUND AND AIM OF THE STUDY Tricuspid valve replacement (TVR) is considered a high-risk operation. The study aim was to analyze the authors' eight-year experience with TVR and to characterize the specific risk factors for this operation. METHODS Between January 2005 and August 2012, a total of 67 patients (46 females, 21 males; mean age 58 +/- 14 years; range: 25-86 years) underwent TVR a...

متن کاملOperative results in aortic valve surgery.
UCCESS in aortic valvular surgery has approached that comparable to other cardiac defects. This has resulted from the development of competent artificial valves, increased safety of prolonged hypothermic perfusion to allow ample time for the operative procedure, and the proper selection of patients. During the past 2 years 90 patients with aortic valvular disease have had surgical correction of...
متن کاملPrediction of operative mortality after valve replacement surgery.
OBJECTIVES We sought to develop national benchmarks for valve replacement surgery by developing statistical risk models of operative mortality. BACKGROUND National risk models for coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) have gained widespread acceptance, but there are no similar models for valve replacement surgery. METHODS The Society of Thoracic Surgeons National Cardiac Surgery Datab...
متن کاملRapid deployment valve system shortens operative times for aortic valve replacement through right anterior minithoracotomy
BACKGROUND There is growing evidence from the literature that right anterior minithoracotomy aortic valve replacement (RAT-AVR) improves clinical outcome. However, increased cross clamp time is the strongest argument for surgeons not performing RAT-AVR. Rapid deployment aortic valve systems have the potential to decrease cross-clamp time and ease this procedure. We assessed clinical outcome of ...
