Project description:BACKGROUND:Three-dimensional (3D) models have the unique ability to replicate individualized cardiac anatomy and may therefore provide clinical benefit. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) currently relies on preoperative imaging for accurate valve sizing, type of valve used, and avoidance of complications. Three-dimensional (3D) modelling may provide benefit for optimal preoperative TAVI planning. The goal of this study is to assess the utility of 3D modelling in the prediction of paravalvular leak (PVL) post TAVI. METHODS:Retrospective analysis of five patients who underwent TAVI at our center. Pre-operative cardiac gated CT images were utilized to create a 3D printed model with true size aortic root dimensions, including the coronary artery ostium location and left ventricular outflow tract. Deployment of the corresponding model and size TAVI valve into the created 3D model at a similar depth of implantation via fluoroscopy was performed for each patient. Degree of PVL was assessed using a closed system with water infusion under pressure over a duration of 5 s. Correlation was made between the volume obtained in the closed loop model during the pressurized period and the degree of PVL reported on the patients post TAVI placement on transthoracic echocardiogram. RESULTS:One female, and four males (age in years ranged from 68 to 87) underwent successful TAVI (0% 30-day mortality). PVL on post procedure TTE ranged from none to trivial. Successful deployment of TAVI valves inside the 3D model occurred in all cases. The average volume of water collected on three trials over 5 s ranged between 19.1-24.1?ml A multivariate linear regression showed significant association between the degree of PVL reported on post-operative transthoracic echocardiogram and the amount of volume detected in the 3D model (difference: -3.9657, 95% CI: (-?4.6761,-3.2554), p?<?0.001). CONCLUSIONS:Our experiments show that replicated 3D models have potential clinical utilization in predicting PVL in the TAVI population. Future research into the role of 3D modelling in the field of TAVI should continue to be explored.

Project description:Aims: The study aimed to compare paravalvular leak (PVL) changes after a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with self-expandable prosthesis between different aortic valve morphologies and evaluate the impact of paravalvular leak regression on clinical prognosis. Methods: Patients with aortic stenosis (AS) successfully treated with a self-expandable TAVR who were followed up for at least 1 year at our centre were consecutively enrolled from January 2016 to August 2019. Paired serial changes in paravalvular leak and other haemodynamic parameters by echocardiography were collected and compared between the bicuspid valve (BAV) and tricuspid aortic valve (TAV). A logistic regression model was used to explore the predictors of paravalvular leak regression (<1 grade) 1 year after transcatheter aortic valve replacement, while its impact on subsequent clinical outcomes (all-cause mortality and rehospitalisation for heart failure (HF)) was further evaluated using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Results: A total of 153 bicuspid valve and 114 tricuspid aortic valve patients were finally enrolled; haemodynamic parameters and paravalvular leak severity were comparable before the discharge between the two groups. The peak transaortic velocity, mean transvalvular gradient, and effective orifice area all significantly improved (p < 0.05) without intergroup differences at all follow-up timepoints. Significant paravalvular leak reduction was observed only in the TAV group (1.75% vs. 4.39%, p = 0.029), while moderate paravalular leak was still more prevalent in BAV (7.19% vs. 1.75%, p = 0.041) at the 1-year follow-up. Multivariable analyses identified the bicuspid valve, asymmetric calcification, and undersizing as independent predictors of failure of the 1-year paravalvular leak reduction in patients with mild or moderate paravalvular leak after discharge. Patients without a paravalvular leak reduction within 1 year showed a relatively higher 2-year all-cause mortality and HF (HR: 5.994, 95% CI: 1.691-21.240, and p = 0.053) rates thereafter. Conclusion: In AS patients after self-expandable transcatheter aortic valve replacement, paravalvular leak regression within 1 year was less prevalent in bicuspid valve morphology. The failure of paravalvular leak reduction might lead to an increased risk of poorer prognosis in the long run.
