OBJECTIVES: Atrioventricular valve (AVV) replacements in patients with single-ventricle circulations pose significant surgical risks and are associated with high morbidity and mortality.
METHODS: From 1997 to 2021, 16 consecutive patients with functionally single-ventricle physiology underwent mechanical AVV replacement. Primary outcome was transplant-free survival. Secondary outcomes included major postoperative morbidity.
RESULTS: The median age of AVV replacement was 2 years old (interquartile range 0.6-3.8 years). All AVV replacements were performed with a St. Jude Medical mechanical valve, median 24 mm (range, 19-31mm). Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) was required in 4 patients. Operative mortality was 38% (6/16). There were 2 late deaths and 3 transplants. Transplant-free survival was 50% at 1 year, 37.5% at 5 years, and 22% at 10 years. Transplant-free survival was higher for patients with preserved ventricular function (P = 0.01). Difference in transplant-free survival at 1 year was 75% vs 25%, at 5 years was 62.5% vs 12.5% and at 10 years was 57% vs 0%. Three (19%) patients had complete heart block requiring permanent pacemaker insertion. 6 of 13 patients (46%) patients reached Fontan completion (3 patients operated at/after Fontan). Significant bleeding events occurred in 8 patients (50%) with 3 patients suffering major cerebrovascular accidents. There were 6 events of valve thrombosis in 5 patients, resulting in 2 deaths and 2 heart transplants.
CONCLUSIONS: Mechanical valve replacement carries significant morbidity and mortality risk. While it successfully salvages about half of patients with preserved ventricular function, careful consideration of alternative options should be made before embarking upon mechanical valve replacement.
