Key result

ViV-TAVI yields comparable 30-day and procedural mortality versus redo SAVR.

  • OR 1.16
  • 95% CI 0.50-2.70
  • P=0.65
  • n=533

Why the study?

Bioprosthetic aortic valve degeneration necessitates redo surgery, but outcomes comparing the novel alternative ViV-TAVI against redo SAVR needed evaluation.

Does ViV-TAVI reduce procedural and 30-day all-cause mortality compared to redo SAVR in patients with degenerated aortic bioprosthetic valves?

Main Result

Odds Ratio: 1.16 (95% CI 0.5–2.7)

Absolute Event Rate: 5.7% vs 4.6%

p-value: p=0.65

ViV-TAVI offers comparable procedural and 30-day mortality to redo SAVR in patients with degenerated bioprosthetic aortic valves, though it is associated with higher rates of elevated postoperative gradients and paravalvular leaks.

Limitations

  • Lack of randomized controlled trials; all included studies were observational.
  • Selection bias, as patients assigned to ViV-TAVI had significantly higher preoperative risk scores.
  • Postoperative valve hemodynamics may have been influenced by preexisting patient-prosthesis mismatch and paravalvular leaks.
  • Use of earlier device designs in the included studies may have contributed to increased aortic valve gradients and paravalvular leaks.

Cite This Study

Chan et al. (2020) conducted a meta-analysis in Aortic Bioprosthetic Valve Degeneration (n=533). Valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation (ViV-TAVI) vs. Conventional redo surgical aortic valve replacement (redo SAVR) was evaluated on 30-day all-cause mortality (OR 1.16, 95% CI 0.50-2.70, p=0.65). Valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation resulted in comparable 30-day all-cause mortality (OR 1.16) and procedural mortality compared to conventional redo surgical aortic valve replacement.
