Summary

Mitral valve repair using prosthetic rings shows good long-term survival and low reoperation rates, especially for degenerative disease. This method offers durable functional improvement for patients with mitral insufficiency.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Cardiac Surgery
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Mitral valve insufficiency is a significant cardiovascular condition.
  • Prosthetic ring annuloplasty is a common surgical technique for mitral valve repair.
  • Long-term outcomes of mitral valve repair with prosthetic rings require ongoing evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the long-term functional outcomes and survival rates after mitral valve repair using a prosthetic ring.
  • To evaluate the durability and safety of this surgical technique over 15 years.
  • To compare outcomes based on the etiology of mitral valve insufficiency.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective study of 195 patients surviving mitral valve repair with a prosthetic ring (1972-1979).
  • Analysis of actuarial survival, valve-related complications (thromboembolism, endocarditis, hemorrhage, reoperation), and functional status (NYHA class, sinus rhythm).

  • Doppler echocardiography used to assess ventricular function and mitral regurgitation.

    • Main Results:

    • 15-year actuarial survival was 72.4%, with valve-related survival at 82.8%.
    • High rates of freedom from complications at 15 years: 93.9% free from thromboembolism, 96.6% from endocarditis, 95.6% from hemorrhage, and 87.38% from reoperation.
    • Patients with degenerative mitral disease had a higher freedom from reoperation rate (92.7%) compared to rheumatic disease (76.12%).

    Conclusions:

    • Mitral valve repair with prosthetic ring annuloplasty provides durable, long-term functional benefits and survival.
    • The technique demonstrates a favorable safety profile with low rates of major complications and reoperation.
    • Etiology of mitral insufficiency influences long-term reoperation rates, favoring degenerative causes.
