May inform survival expectations after SAVR; leaves open need for contemporary comparisons with transcatheter options.
Cohort (n=675)
Surgical aortic valve replacement for aortic stenosis provides good short- and long-term survival, even in elderly patients presenting with advanced heart failure symptoms.
Cormier et al. (1988) conducted a cohort in calcified pure aortic stenosis or mixed lesions (n=675). Surgical aortic valve replacement was evaluated on Operative mortality and long-term survival. Surgical aortic valve replacement for aortic stenosis demonstrated an operative mortality of 6.8% and 10- and 15-year actuarial survival rates of 62% and 44%, respectively.
