OBJECTIVES: Progression of aortic insufficiency during left-ventricular assist device (LVAD) support is a crucial topic. One treatment option is aortic valvuloplasty (AVP); however, there is controversy regarding its safety and efficacy. We investigated the safety and efficacy of AVP using the coaptation stitch method (Park's stitch) performed for de novo aortic insufficiency.
METHODS: Between 2013 and 2020, 175 consecutive patients underwent LVAD implantation, of which 7 patients [men, 2 (28.6%); median age, 55 years] underwent late-stage AVP. Two patients underwent AVP within 2 weeks, and the remaining six patients underwent AVP 3, 19, 24, 28, 42, and 49 months, respectively, after LVAD implantation.
RESULTS: Preoperatively, the degree of aortic insufficiency was moderate in 6 (85.7%) patients and severe in 1 (14.3%) patient. AVP was technically successful in 6 (85.7%) patients, while one case of failed plasty was subsequently treated with bioprosthetic valve replacement. A 1-year post-AVP right heart catheterization study revealed a median pulmonary artery wedge pressure of 10.0 mmHg. No deaths or heart failure admissions occurred during the follow-up (median, 38.0 months). There was no aortic insufficiency in 2 (28.6%) patients; however, trivial AI was observed in 3 (42.8%) patients, and mild AI was observed in 1 (14.3%) patient 2 years postoperatively. However, at the 3-year follow-up, two patients developed an increase in AI grade from trivial to mild.
CONCLUSIONS: AVP using Park's stitch was safe. It is critical to carefully observe the aortic valve during AVP surgery to ensure that AVP is appropriate.
