Effectiveness of aortic valve replacement in Heyde syndrome: a meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

Heyde syndrome is the co-occurrence of aortic stenosis, acquired von Willebrand syndrome, and gastrointestinal bleeding. Aortic valve replacement has been demonstrated to resolve all three associated disorders. A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to obtain best estimates of the effect of aortic valve replacement on acquired von Willebrand syndrome and gastrointestinal bleeding.

Methods and results

A literature search was performed to identify articles on Heyde syndrome and aortic valve replacement up to 25 October 2022. Primary outcomes were the proportion of patients with recovery of acquired von Willebrand syndrome within 24 h (T1), 24-72 h (T2), 3-21 days (T3), and 4 weeks to 2 years (T4) after aortic valve replacement and the proportion of patients
