Abstract 16469: One Hundred Consecutive Patients With Perceval Sutureless Valve: A Good Alternative to Standard Avr and Tavr
2015
Introduction:The recently introduced sutureless prostheses for aortic valve replacement allow short cross-clamp and CPB times with good clinical and haemodynamic performances. It is arguable that these factors can positively impact on post-operative morbidity and mortality, in particular in those patients with a medium- high risk profile. This study shows the mid-term results of a single center experience in patients undergoing AVR. with the Perceval sutureless bioprosthesis (Sorin Group, Saluggia, Italy) Methods:One hundred patients (64 female; mean age 78.2±4.7 years) with aortic valve stenosis (mean gradient of 51.3±14,2 mmHg) underwent aortic valve implantation with the sutureless Perceval bioprosthesis. High-thoracic epidural analgesia was used in 31 patients (31%). Associated CABG surgery was performed in 29 patients (29,%). The mean logistic EuroSCORE was 14.9±9.4% and the STS score was 3,3±1,7. Results:Thirty-day mortality was 2% (n=2). Mean CPB and cross-clamp times for isolated AVR were 38,1±18,...
