Incidence of permanent pacemaker implantation after valve replacement surgery : Cardiac structure and function at 1-year follow-up.

CONCLUSION: Isolated AVR, VR concomitant with VSD repair, and VR with aortic root and arch surgery are independent predictors of PPI after VR. The majority of patients do not recover from AVB disorders and there is no significant negative effect on recovery of cardiac structure and function.
