Clinical and 2D/3D-Echo Cardiography Determinants of Mitral Valve Reoperation in Children With Congenital Mitral Valve Disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Congenital mitral valve disease (CMVD) presents major challenges in its medical and surgical management.

Objectives

The purpose of this study was to investigate the value of 3-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) and identify associations with MV reoperation in this setting.

Methods

All children <18 years of age who underwent MV reconstruction for CMVD in 2002 to 2018 were included. Preoperative and postoperative 2-dimensional echocardiography (2DE) and 3DE data were collected. Competing risks and Cox regression analysis were used to identify independent associations with MV reoperation. Receiver operating characteristic and decision-tree analysis were implemented for comparison of 3DE vs 2DE.

Results

A total of 206 children underwent MV reconstruction
