ABSTRACT: Background
Triple valve surgery is a complex operation with high perioperative mortality. Limited data exist regarding the predictors of success associated with this surgery. We report our experience.Methods
A total of 211 sequential patients underwent triple valve surgery at 1 hospital from November 2007 through July 2022. Baseline characteristics, operative details, and mortality outcomes were reviewed.Results
Eighty-two (38.9%) were redo operations and 68 (32.2%) were urgent. Commonly, aortic (n = 194; 91.4%) and mitral (n = 140; 66.4%) valves were replaced, and the tricuspid valve (n = 189; 89.6%) repaired. Concomitant procedures were done in 28% of patients. Thirty-day mortality was 21 of 211 (9.95%). Kaplan-Meyer survival at 1 and 7 years was 86.0% (interquart
