Abstract
Mitral valve replacement (MVR) in the very young is an imposing clinical challenge. Early and late mortality risk is substantial, severe adverse events are common, and redo mitral valve replacement is inevitable. Therapeutic options are limited. In the older infant with an annulus of 17mm or larger, mechanical MVR is associated with low risk of mortality and predictable durability. For the very young with annular hypoplasia, bovine jugular vein conduit MVR appears to offer equivalent or better early outcomes with the possibility of subsequent valve expansion, potentially prolonging the interval to redo MVR. Experience with cylinder MVR and other forms of surgeon-manufactured MVR is quite limited, and there is currently no information on late outcomes or durability.
期刊介绍:
The Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Annual is a companion to Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery . Together with the Seminars, the Annual provides complete coverage of the specialty by focusing on important developments in pediatric cardiac surgery. Each annual volume has an expert guest editor who invites prominent surgeons to review the areas of greatest change in pediatric cardiac surgery during the year. Topics include 1) Complete Atrioventricular Canal; 2) New Concepts of Cardiac Anatomy and Function -- The Helical Heart; 3) Valve Reconstruction (Replacement) in Congenital Heart Disease; 4) Evolving Developments in Congenital Heart Surgery.
