BACKGROUND: The goals following pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) are to optimize right ventricular hemodynamics and minimize the need for subsequent reoperations on the right ventricular outflow tract. We hypothesized PVR using a xenograft valved conduit would result in superior freedom from reoperation with sustained improvement in right ventricular chamber dimensions.
METHODS: Xenograft valved conduits placed in patients aged >16 years were reviewed from 2000 to 2010 to allow for a 5-year minimum follow-up. Preoperative, one-year, and the most recent echocardiograms quantified right ventricular chamber dimensions, corresponding Z scores, and prosthetic valve function. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies compared preoperative and follow-up right ventricular volumes.
RESULTS: A total of 100 patients underwent PVR at 24 (19-34) years. Freedom from reintervention was 100% at 10 years. At most recent follow-up, only one patient had greater than mild pulmonary insufficiency. The one-year (17.3 ± 7.2 mm Hg; P < .01) and most recent follow-up (18.6 ± 9.8 mm Hg; P < .01) Doppler-derived right ventricular outflow tract gradients remained significantly lower than preoperative measurements (36.7 ± 27.0 mm Hg). Similarly, right ventricular basal diameter, basal longitudinal diameter, and the corresponding Z scores remained lower at one year and follow-up from preoperative measurements. From 34 MRI studies, the right ventricular end-diastolic indexed volume (161.7 ± 58.5 vs 102.9 ± 38.3; P < .01) and pulmonary regurgitant fraction (38.0% ± 15.9% vs 0.8% ± 3.3%; P < .01) were significantly lower at 7.1 ± 3.4 years compared to the preoperative levels.
CONCLUSION: Use of a xenograft valved conduit for PVR results in excellent freedom from reoperation with sustained improvement in right ventricular dimensions at an intermediate-term follow-up.
