Short- and Long-Term Outcome after Emergent Cardiac Surgery during Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation

Objective: Our study aimed to evaluate short- and long-term outcomes of patients who required emergent conversion from transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) to open surgery. Besides, the reasons and procedural settings of emergent cardiac surgery (ECS) were also reported.Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the patients who underwent TAVI in our institution between 2012 and 2019 and collected the clinical data of cases who converted from TAVI to bail-out surgery. Telephone and outpatient follow-ups were performed.Results: Of 516 TAVI patients, 20 required ECS, and the bail-out surgery occurred less frequently with the increase in TAVI volume. The most common reason for conversion was left ventricular perforation (7/20, 35.0%). Thirty-day mortality was 35.0% in ECS patients. Kaplan–Meier survival curves showed that the cumulative survival rate was 65.0% at 1 year, 50.1% at 5 years in all ECS patients, and 77.1% at 5 years in patients who survived over 30 days after conversion.Conclusion: Although the bail-out operation was performed immediately after TAVI abortion, ECS still associated with high 30-day mortality. The long-term survival benefit was seen in patients surviving from bail-out surgery. An experienced TAVI team is of crucial importance in avoiding ECS-related life-threatening complications and providing effective salvage surgery.

BMP9诱导可逆永生化小鼠瓣膜间质细胞成骨能力研究

目的：建立具有快速增殖能力的可逆永生化主动脉瓣膜间质细胞系。方法：体视显微镜下利用弹簧剪夹取瓣膜组织,胶原酶消化后加入逆转录永生化病毒,利用免疫荧光鉴定细胞是否属于间质细胞,显微镜观察细胞形态,结晶紫、CCK-8和流式细胞周期技术检测细胞增殖能力,碱性磷酸酶染色和茜素红钙盐沉积实验检测细胞成骨能力,q-PCR及Western blot检测细胞成骨标志物。结果：经光镜观察和免疫荧光鉴定,成功取到瓣膜间质细胞。加入永生化病毒后,经光镜观察和免疫荧光确认瓣膜间质细胞未发生表型改变,且在永生化的细胞中能够检测到大量SV40T(P<0.001)。结晶紫染色、CCK-8(P<0.001)和流式细胞周期结果提示永生化后的瓣膜间质细胞增殖速度变快。加入成骨诱导因子骨形态发生蛋白-9(bone morphogenetic protein9,BMP9)后永生化瓣膜间质细胞表现出较好的成骨能力,多数成骨标志物在分子层面的RNA和蛋白水平明显升高。去永生化后瓣膜间质细胞形态无明显改变,q-PCR结果显示SV40T明显降低（P<0.001）,细胞增殖能力明显下降,且细胞周期被阻滞在G0/G1期...     

Percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty in the treatment of congenital valvu lar aortic stenosis in children

Objective To assess the effect of the balloon valvuloplasty for congenital valvular aortic stenosis (AS) in children.Methods A total of 27 (mean age 6.09 years) children with AS accepted the treatment of percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty (PBAV).The ratios of balloon/valve were 0.95±0.08 for 19 cases of typical AS and 1.00±0.11 for 8 cases of hyp oplastic AS.The patients were evaluated by the gradients across aotic valves i n pre- and post-PBAV and by echocardiogram during the follow-up period.Results Fifteen of 19 （78.9%）cases of typical AS had a better outcome and the gradien t of the remaining 4 cases (26.7%) had increased after follow-up (ΔP&gt;50 mm Hg).Four of 8 (50.0%) cases of hypoplastic AS had satisfactory responses and the gradient of the remaining 3 cases (75.0%) rose.There was no moderate to s evere aortic insufficiency (AI). Conclusion The balloon aortic valvuloplasty provides safe and significant hemodynamic and c linical improvement in pediatric patients.The outcome of PBAV for typical AS is better than for hypoplastic AS.
