Key result
In children with congenital mitral stenosis and associated defects, single-stage repair was associated with lower late mortality compared to a staged approach (7.7% vs 18.2%; P<0.01).

Single-stage repair may warrant consideration in select cases; leaves open need for randomized confirmation before practice change.

Absolute Event Rate: 7.7% vs 18.2%
p-value: p=<0.01
In children with congenital mitral stenosis and associated heart defects, a single-stage complete repair is associated with lower early and late mortality compared to a staged approach.
Serraf et al. (2000) conducted a cohort in Congenital mitral stenosis (n=72). Single-stage complete repair vs. Staged repair was evaluated on Late mortality (p=<0.01). In children with congenital mitral stenosis and associated defects, single-stage repair was associated with lower late mortality compared to a staged approach (7.7% vs 18.2%; P<0.01).
