Prognostic Value of Functional Incomplete Revascularization in Patients Undergoing Valve Surgery With Coronary Artery Disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Coronary angiography remains standard for assessing lesions in valve surgery patients with concomitant coronary artery disease.

Objectives

This study assessed the prognostic value of functional evaluation using quantitative flow ratio in these patients.

Methods

Consecutive patients undergoing valve surgery (January 2016-December 2021) with ≥1 vessel stenosis (50%-90%) were included. Patients were categorized into complete revascularization (CR) or incomplete revascularization (ICR) groups by functional and traditional anatomical criteria. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events ([MACE]; all-cause death, myocardial infarction, unplanned revascularization, stroke).

Results

A total of 750 patients were enrolled in the study, and 244
