    Summary

    A novel double continuous suture technique for tricuspid insufficiency offers comparable outcomes to prosthetic annuloplasty. This method significantly reduces the incidence of atrioventricular block and minimizes foreign material implantation.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Surgery
    • Cardiac Surgery
    • Thoracic Surgery

    Background:

    • Tricuspid insufficiency is commonly treated with prosthetic annuloplasty or continuous running sutures.
    • Existing techniques have limitations, including varying degrees of success and potential complications.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate a novel double continuous suture technique for tricuspid annulus reconstruction.
    • To compare the efficacy and safety of this technique against prosthetic annuloplasty.

    Main Methods:

    • The study involved 141 patients undergoing the double continuous suture technique and 41 patients receiving a Carpentier's annuloplasty.
    • The technique involves inserting two separate continuous sutures into the tricuspid annulus to reduce dilated segments.

    Main Results:

    • Perioperative mortality and 5-year survival rates were similar between both groups.
    • The double continuous suture technique demonstrated a significantly lower incidence of postoperative atrioventricular block.
    • This technique minimizes the use of foreign materials compared to prosthetic devices.

    Conclusions:

    • The double continuous suture technique is a safe and effective alternative for treating tricuspid insufficiency.
    • It offers advantages in reducing atrioventricular block and foreign material usage.
    • This method provides comparable long-term survival to prosthetic annuloplasty.
