چکیده

OBJECTIVE The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the Perceval sutureless valve in patients undergoing aortic valve replacement. We report the 30-day clinical outcomes of 139 patients. METHODS From January 2014 to December 2016, 139 patients underwent sutureless aortic valve replacement. Their operation notes, National Adult Cardiac Surgery Database and perioperative transoesophageal echocardiography findings were studied retrospectively. RESULTS Ninety-two patients underwent isolated aortic valve replacement (group A) with Perceval valve and 47 patients had combined procedures of aortic valve replacement and coronary artery bypass grafting (group B). The patients received a size S (n=23), M (n=39), L (n=42) or XL (n=35) prosthesis. Perceval valve was successfully implanted in 135 (97.1%) patients. Mean cross-clamping time and bypass time were 40 and 63 minutes for isolated cases, while 68 and 107 minutes for combined cases. Three (2.1%) patients died within 30 days. Four patients suffered stroke and 5 patients went into acute renal failure. Median intensive care unit and hospital stay was 2 and 8.5, respectively. Four valves were explanted due to significant paravalvular leak after surgery. Five patients had permanent pacemaker as a result of complete heart block and mean postoperative drainage was 295 mL for isolated case and 457 mL for combined cases. The mean gradient across Perceval valve was 12.5 mmHg while its effective orifice area was 1.5 cm2. CONCLUSION Early postoperative results showed that Perceval valve is safe. Further follow up is needed to evaluate the long-term outcome with this bioprosthesis.

Thrombocytopenia associated with Perceval sutureless aortic valve replacement in elderly patients: a word of caution.

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to report for the first time the phenomenon of thrombocytopenia associated with the use of sutureless aortic valve replacements (AVR), and try to find an explanation for its occurrence. METHODS The data was collected retrospectively for all patients who had sutureless AVR (7 patients) and was compared to patients who underwent sutured AVR (22 patients) by t...

Perceval Sutureless Valve – are Sutureless Valves Here?

With the advent of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) techniques, a renewed interest has developed in sutureless aortic valve concepts in the last decade. The main feature of sutureless aortic valve implantation is the speed of insertion, thus making implantation easier for the surgeon. As a result, cross clamp times and myocardial ischemia may be reduced. The combined procedures (C...

Sutureless Aortic Prosthesis Implantation: the First Brazilian Experience with Perceval Device

This is a report of the first Brazilian experience with the Perceval sutureless aortic prosthesis in two patients with severe aortic stenosis. Transesophageal echocardiography was used during the procedure. The aortotomy was performed 1 cm above the sinotubular junction, followed by leaflets removal and decalcification. Correct valve size was selected, device released and an accommodation ballo...

Sutureless aortic valve replacement with Perceval bioprosthesis: are there predicting factors for postoperative pacemaker implantation?

OBJECTIVES Aortic valve replacement (AVR) with sutureless bioprostheses has become an alternative to conventional AVR for patients with intermediate to high operative risk. However, this technique is associated with an increased risk of postoperative conduction disorders. METHODS We analysed 258 patients who underwent AVR with the Perceval prosthesis from July 2010 to September 2014 at our ce...

Hypo‐Attenuated Leaflet Thickening and Reduced Leaflet Motion in Sutureless Bioprosthetic Aortic Valves

BACKGROUND The prevalence of hypo-attenuated leaflet thickening (HALT) and reduced leaflet motion (RLM) is unknown in surgically implanted bioprostheses because systematic investigation of HALT and/or RLM is limited to a few catheter-based valves. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of HALT and RLM by cardiac computed tomography in patients who underwent surgical aortic valv...
