Abstract
Background: Complete atrioventricular conduction block (CAVB) is a major complication of the repair and occlusion of perimembranous ventricular septal defects (pmVSDs).
Objective: This study aimed to analyse the incidence and risk factors of CAVB after occlusion and repair of pmVSD.
Methods: We reviewed patients with pmVSDs who underwent occlusion and repair between January 2010 and January 2022. Permanent CAVB was defined as a CAVB requiring permanent pacemaker implantation or occluder extraction.
Results: Of 2436 patients who underwent pmVSD repair, 7 (0.3%) developed permanent CAVB. In all, 16 (0.7%) of the 2200 patients in the device group developed permanent CAVBs. All permanent CAVBs in the repair group occurred during hospital stay. In contrast, eight (50%) permanent CAVBs in the device group occurred over 1 month. A large pmVSD size (odds ratio [OR], 1.575; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.260-1.970, p < 0.001) and device/defect ratio (OR, 2.608; 95% CI, 1.587-4.287, p < 0.001) were independent risk factors for permanent CAVB after surgical repair and device occlusion, respectively. Multivariate regression showed that device occlusion versus surgical repair was associated with a significantly higher risk of permanent CAVBs (OR, 4.675; 95% CI, 1.586-13.780, p = 0.005).
Conclusion: The incidence rates of permanent CAVB after device occlusion and surgical repair were 0.7% and 0.3%, respectively. Large VSD size and device/defect ratio were independently associated with permanent CAVB after surgical repair and device occlusion, respectively. Compared with surgical repair, device occlusion was associated with a significantly higher risk of permanent CAVB after pmVSD closure.
背景:完全性房室传导阻滞(CAVB)是膜周围室间隔缺损(pmVSDs)修复和闭塞的主要并发症。目的:分析pmVSD闭塞修复后房颤的发生率及危险因素。方法:我们回顾了2010年1月至2022年1月期间接受闭塞和修复的pmvsd患者。永久性房颤定义为需要植入永久性起搏器或拔除闭塞器的房颤。结果:在2436例接受pmVSD修复的患者中,7例(0.3%)发生永久性CAVB。总的来说,装置组2200例患者中有16例(0.7%)发生永久性cavb。修复组永久性cavb均发生在住院期间。相比之下,器械组在1个月内发生了8例永久性cavb(50%)。较大的pmVSD大小(优势比[OR], 1.575;95%可信区间[CI], 1.260 ~ 1.970, p p p = 0.005)。结论:器械闭塞和手术修复后永久性腔静脉血栓的发生率分别为0.7%和0.3%。较大的VSD大小和器械/缺损比分别与手术修复和器械闭塞后的永久性CAVB独立相关。与手术修复相比,装置闭塞与pmVSD关闭后永久性CAVB的风险显著增加相关。
