ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Paravalvular regurgitation (PVR) has been known to be the primary determinant of poor left ventricular (LV) mass regression after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). However, the incidence of significant PVR has been reduced considerably as TAVR technology evolved rapidly. This study aimed to investigate the time course and impact of LV mass index (LVMi) regression on long-term clinical outcomes in severe aortic stenosis (AS) patients without significant PVR after TAVR.
METHODS: Of 412 patients who underwent TAVR, 146 who had LV hypertrophy (LVMi ??15 g/m(2) for men and ??95 g/m(2) for women) at baseline and were alive at one year after TAVR were enrolled. The primary outcome was cardiovascular deaths and the impact of LVMi regression on clinical outcomes were examined. The patients with significant PVR were excluded.
RESULTS: During a median follow-up of 40 months (interquartile range, 26-58 months), 9 (6.2%) cardiovascular deaths, 21 (14.4%) all-cause deaths, and 9 (6.2%) hospitalizations occurred. In the multivariable analysis, the percentage change of LVMi was an independent predictor of cardiovascular deaths (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 1.03; 95% confidential interval [CI], 1.01-1.05; P = 0.010), and composite outcome of cardiovascular deaths and rehospitalization for heart failure (adjusted HR, 1.02; 95% CI, 1.00-1.04; P = 0.022). Baseline LVMi, eccentric hypertrophy, and TAVR-induced left bundle branch block were independently associated with LVMi regression.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with severe AS who received successful TAVR without significant PVR, the degree of LVMi regression is an independent predictor of postoperative outcomes after TAVR. CI - Copyright ??2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
