Medium-term outcome of transcatheter aortic valve replacement in mucopolysaccharidosis type I-HS (Hurler-Scheie syndrome).

ABSTRACT: Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) are inherited metabolic diseases characterized by the deficiency of lysosomal enzymes and the accumulation of glycosaminoglycans in various organs, including the heart. In particular, aortic valve disease causes high morbidity and mortality rates, and sometimes requires surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) at a young age. Although transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for severe aortic stenosis (AS) in surgical high-risk patients is a well-established treatment, there are few reports of TAVR in MPS and medium- and long-term outcomes are not known. We present a case of severe AS in a MPS patient with high risk for SAVR who was successfully treated with TAVR and has shown a fine medium-term result. A 40-year-old woman with MPS type I-HS (Hurler-Scheie syndrome) receiving enzyme replacement therapy as a systemic treatment had complained of syncope and worsening dyspnea, and she was diagnosed with severe AS. The patient had a history of temporary tracheotomy because of the difficulty of endotracheal intubation. Considering risk for general anesthesia, TAVR was performed under local anesthesia. She has improved symptoms for one-and-a-half years. TAVR for severe AS in MPS would be an alternative option for surgical high-risk patients and can demonstrate preferable medium-term outcomes combined with systemic therapies.

Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) are metabolic diseases affecting various organs. The MPS patients requiring surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for severe aortic stenosis (AS) often have a high surgical risk. However, in MPS, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) could be an alternative procedure to SAVR. We report a MPS patient treated with TAVR showing a preferable medium-term outcome. We suggest that TAVR for severe AS in MPS is an acceptable treatment option.

Project description:AimsThere is evidence to suggest that the subtype of aortic stenosis (AS), the degree of myocardial fibrosis (MF), and level of aortic valve calcification (AVC) are associated with adverse cardiac outcome in AS. Because little is known about their respective contribution, we sought to investigate their relative importance and interplay as well as their association with adverse cardiac events following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).Methods and resultsOne hundred consecutive patients with severe AS and indication for TAVR were prospectively enrolled between January 2017 and October 2018. Patients underwent transthoracic echocardiography, multidetector computed tomography, and left ventricular endomyocardial biopsies at the time of TAVR. The final study cohort consisted of 92 patients with a completed study protocol, 39 (42.4%) of whom showed a normal ejection fraction (EF) high-gradient (NEFHG) AS, 13 (14.1%) a low EF high-gradient (LEFHG) AS, 25 (27.2%) a low EF low-gradient (LEFLG) AS, and 15 (16.3%) a paradoxical low-flow, low-gradient (PLFLG) AS. The high-gradient phenotypes (NEFHG and LEFHG) showed the largest amount of AVC (807 ± 421 and 813 ± 281 mm3 , respectively) as compared with the low-gradient phenotypes (LEFLG and PLFLG; 503 ± 326 and 555 ± 594 mm3 , respectively, P < 0.05). Conversely, MF was most prevalent in low-output phenotypes (LEFLG > LEFHG > PLFLG > NEFHG, P < 0.05). This was paralleled by a greater cardiovascular (CV) mortality within 600 days after TAVR (LEFLG 28% > PLFLG 26.7% > LEFHG 15.4% > NEFHG 2.5%; P = 0.023). In patients with a high MF burden, a higher AVC was associated with a lower mortality following TAVR (P = 0.045, hazard ratio 0.261, 95% confidence interval 0.07-0.97).ConclusionsMF is associated with adverse CV outcome following TAVR, which is most prevalent in low EF situations. In the presence of large MF burden, patients with large AVC have better outcome following TAVR. Conversely, worse outcome in large MF and relatively little AVC may be explained by a relative prominence of an underlying cardiomyopathy. The better survival rates in large AVC patients following TAVR indicate TAVR induced relief of severe AS-associated pressure overload with subsequently improved outcome.

Project description:BackgroundA series of models have been developed to identify patients at high risk for poor outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) to help guide treatment choices, offer patients realistic expectations of long-term outcomes, and support decision making.ObjectivesThis study examined the performance of the previously developed TAVR Poor Outcome risk models in an external dataset and explored the incremental contribution of geriatric domains to model performance.MethodsPoor outcome after TAVR was defined as death, poor quality of life (QOL), or decline in QOL, as assessed using the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire. We tested 4 TAVR Poor Outcome risk models: 6-month and 1-year full and clinical (reduced) models. We examined each model's discrimination and calibration in the CoreValve trial dataset, and then tested the incremental contribution of frailty and disability markers to the model's discrimination using the incremental discrimination index.ResultsAmong 2,830 patients who underwent TAVR in the CoreValve US Pivotal Extreme and High Risk trials and associated continued access registries, 31.2% experienced a poor outcome at 6 months following TAVR (death, 17.6%; very poor QOL, 11.6%; QOL decline, 2.0%) and 50.8% experienced a poor outcome at 1 year (death, 30.2%; poor QOL, 19.6%; QOL, decline 1.0%). The models demonstrated similar discrimination as in the Placement of Aortic Transcatheter Valves Trial cohorts (c-indexes, 0.637 to 0.665) and excellent calibration. Adding frailty as a syndrome increased the c-indexes by 0.000 to 0.004 (incremental discrimination index, p < 0.01 for all except the 1-year clinical model), with the most important individual components being disability and unintentional weight loss.ConclusionsAlthough discrimination of the TAVR Poor Outcome risk models was generally moderate, calibration was excellent among patients with different risk profiles and treated with a different TAVR device. These findings demonstrated the value of these models for individualizing outcome predictions in high-risk patients undergoing TAVR.

Project description:BackgroundThe approved use of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for aortic stenosis has expanded substantially over time. However, gaps remain with respect to accurately delineating risk for poor clinical and patient-centered outcomes. Our objective was to develop prediction models for 30-day clinical and patient-centered outcomes after TAVR within a large, diverse community-based population.MethodsWe identified all adults who underwent TAVR between 2013-2019 at Kaiser Permanente Northern California, an integrated healthcare delivery system, and were monitored for the following 30-day outcomes: all-cause death, improvement in quality of life, all-cause hospitalizations, all-cause emergency department (ED) visits, heart failure (HF)-related hospitalizations, and HF-related ED visits. We developed prediction models using gradient boosting machines using linked demographic, clinical and other data from the Society for Thoracic Surgeons (STS)/American College of Cardiology (ACC) TVT Registry and electronic health records. We evaluated model performance using area under the curve (AUC) for model discrimination and associated calibration plots. We also evaluated the association of individual predictors with outcomes using logistic regression for quality of life and Cox proportional hazards regression for all other outcomes.ResultsWe identified 1,565 eligible patients who received TAVR. The risks of adverse 30-day post-TAVR outcomes ranged from 1.3% (HF hospitalizations) to 15.3% (all-cause ED visits). In models with the highest discrimination, discrimination was only moderate for death (AUC 0.60) and quality of life (AUC 0.62), but better for HF-related ED visits (AUC 0.76). Calibration also varied for different outcomes. Importantly, STS risk score only independently predicted death and all-cause hospitalization but no other outcomes. Older age also only independently predicted HF-related ED visits, and race/ethnicity was not significantly associated with any outcomes.ConclusionsDespite using a combination of detailed STS/ACC TVT Registry and electronic health record data, predicting short-term clinical and patient-centered outcomes after TAVR remains challenging. More work is needed to identify more accurate predictors for post-TAVR outcomes to support personalized clinical decision making and monitoring strategies.
