Medical malpractice in aortic valve and mitral valve replacement surgery in North America
CONCLUSIONS: In addition to excellent surgeon patient/family communication, administering surgical treatment in a timely manner, diagnosing and acting on concomitant medical conditions, and close patient monitoring may diminish medical malpractice litigation involving aortic and mitral valve replacement operations.PMID:34338496 | DOI:10.23736/S0021-9509.21.11945-7

Single-stage total aortic replacement in patients with mega-aortic syndrome
CONCLUSIONS: Total aortic replacement from valve to bifurcation is a safe approach for younger and fit patients with MAS and provides acceptable midterm outcomes in an experienced centre. Thoracoabdominal incision at fourth intercostal space with retroperitoneal approach of abdominal aorta provides satisfactory exposure for the thoracic aorta and TAA and minimizes surgical trauma in comparison with a combination of two surgical incision.PMID:34014058 | DOI:10.23736/S0021-9509.21.11598-8

Initial clinical experience with minimally invasive surgical aortic valve replacement.
CONCLUSIONS: Although the minimally invasive surgery for AVR may increasingly be applied, our initial experience calls for a careful approach of adapting this procedure. PMID: 33302611 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Partial upper sternotomy for concomitant left atrial ablation and aortic valve replacement.
CONCLUSIONS: Concomitant left atrial ablation and aortic valve replacement can safely be performed via partial sternotomy and results are non-inferior to open surgery. PMID: 32909704 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Mid-term single-centre outcomes of BioIntegral compared to Freestyle aortic conduit implantation.
CONCLUSIONS: FS and BI provide comparable clinical midterm results and hemodynamic parameters. Simplified implantation technique providing shorter cardiopulmonary bypass and operation times are advantageous for BI. PMID: 31815376 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Comparison of automated fastener device Cor-Knot versus manually tied knot in minimally-invasive isolated aortic valve replacement surgery.
CONCLUSIONS: The automated Cor-Knot fastener is an easy-to-use, time-saving device which does not increase perioperative morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing aortic valve replacement by right anterior minithoracotomy. PMID: 31599141 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Antiplatelet strategy after transcatheter aortic valve replacement: an updated meta-analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: The updated meta-analysis presents the evidence that post-TAVR DAPT increases bleeding events, with no benefit in survival and ischemic events, in comparison with SAPT. Nevertheless, it is currently difficult to evaluate by a meta-analysis the effectiveness of DAPT versus SAPT to prevent the valve thrombosis resulting in leaflet dysfunction , due to a limited number of existing publication. Additional RCTs are needed to determine the optimal antiplatelet strategy after TAVR. PMID: 31486613 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
