Early surgical outcomes of rapid deployment aortic valve replacement in bicuspid aortic valves.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Biological valve prostheses in rapid-deployment aortic valve replacement (RD AVR) procedures have demonstrated excellent outcomes. However, previous studies indicate a lack of specific surgical outcomes for the bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) or recommend RD AVR implementation. The existing literature comparing the clinical and hemodynamic outcomes of patients with BAV and those with tricuspid aortic valves (TAVs) after RD AVR is limited. Therefore, this study evaluated the safety and feasibility of RD AVR in BAV, including Sievers type 0, and compared the early clinical and hemodynamic outcomes of patients who underwent RD AVR at a single center based on aortic valve type.

Methods

Our institution officially commenced performing RD AVR using Intuity valves in Septembe
