Concomitant valve surgery is associated with worse outcomes in surgical treatments of post-infarction ventricular aneurysm

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To evaluate the impact of concomitant valve surgery on the prognosis of patients who experienced coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) with/without ventricular reconstruction for the ventricular aneurysm.

Methods

In our department, 354 patients underwent CABG with/without ventricular reconstruction for a ventricular aneurysm from July 23rd, 2000 to December 23rd, 2022. A total of 77 patients received concomitant valve surgery, 37 of whom underwent replacement, and 40 of whom underwent repair. The baseline characteristics, prognostic, and follow-up information were statically analyzed. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were applied to identify the risk factors of long-term outcomes.

Results

Compared with patients who did not undergo valvu
