Benchmarking Outcomes of Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients with Bicuspid Aortic Valves
CONCLUSIONS: In this nationally-representative study, 30-day mortality was similar but risk-adjusted 5-year mortality was significantly lower in bicuspid patients undergoing isolated SAVR compared to tricuspid patients, specifically low-risk and normal left ventricular ejection fraction patients. This analyses provides a much-needed 5-year longitudinal national-level benchmark to better inform the discussion of transcatheter vs SAVR in bicuspid patients.PMID:37454786 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2023.06.026

Outcomes of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients with Concomitant Aortic Regurgitation
CONCLUSIONS: TAVR can be safely performed in patients with mixed valvular disease, yielding comparable outcomes as in isolated AS.PMID:36791833 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2023.02.008

Isolated Tricuspid Operations: Society of Thoracic Surgeons Adult Cardiac Surgery Database Analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Isolated tricuspid repair was associated with lower adjusted mortality and morbidities than replacement. Beating heart operation was associated with lower adjusted major morbidities. Pre-operative MELD scores may identify high-risk patients, and referral to higher volume centers may help improve outcomes.PMID:36696939 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2022.12.041

Clinical Course of Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation After Cardiac Surgery and Long-Term Outcome
CONCLUSIONS: A more complicated POAF course is associated with increased long-term risk for heart failure hospitalization, but not for all-cause mortality or thromboembolic complications.PMID:35430224 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2022.03.062

Transapical Ventricular Remodeling for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy with Systolic Cavity Obliteration
CONCLUSIONS: Transapical myectomy to enlarge LV cavity volume can be performed safely with good early survival and functional results. This procedure is an important alternative to cardiac transplantation for HCM patients with systolic cavity obliteration and progressive heart failure.PMID:35339438 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2022.02.073

Advancing Quality Metrics for Durable Left Ventricular Assist Device Implant: Analysis of The Society of Thoracic Surgeons' Intermacs Database
CONCLUSIONS: This study is among the first to report substantial interhospital variability in performance for hospitals implanting durable LVADs. These findings support the need to: (1) report hospital-level performance (mortality, composite); and (2) undertake benchmarking activities to reduce unwarranted variability in outcomes.PMID:35176258 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2022.01.031

Mid-Term Outcomes of Heart Transplantation in Children with Genetic Disorders
CONCLUSIONS: Despite more preoperative comorbidities, mid-term outcomes following heart transplant in children with genetic syndromes and disorders are promising.PMID:35007503 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2021.12.019

Minimally Invasive versus Full Sternotomy for Isolated Aortic Valve Replacement in Low-risk Patients
CONCLUSIONS: For patients at low risk for isolated surgery, MI and FS approaches were associated with similar in-hospital and 1-year outcomes.PMID:34958771 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2021.11.048
