Between 1986 and 1990, 304 females between 11 and 45 (mean, 33.9 ± 6.9) years of age underwent isolated mitral valve replacement with a bioprosthesis. Thirty-nine of the 285 survivors experienced 48 pregnancies during the late follow-up period (group 1). Structural valve deterioration occurred in 25 (64.1%) of these patients and in 70 (28.4%) of the 246 patients (group 2) who did not become pregnant (p < 0.01). The mean time at which structural valve deterioration occurred was 7.01 ± 1.19 years postoperatively (range, 4.74 to 8.36 years) for group 1 patients and 6.76 ± 1.34 years (range, 2.33 to 10.17 years) for group 2 patients (p > 0.05). Freedom from structural valve deterioration at 10 years was 22.9% ± 8.11% for group 1 and 29.24% ± 6.09% for group 2 (p > 0.05). We concluded that pregnancy did not influence the long-term outcome after mitral valve replacement with a bioprosthesis.

Introduction: Presence of subclinical left ventricle (LV) dysfunction may influence outcomes after percutaneous mitral balloon valvotomy (PMBV), but cannot be detected by conventional echocardiography. Hypothesis: Preprocedure LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) by speckle tracking TTE detects subclinical LV dysfunction and predicts long-term outcome after successful PMVB. Methods: Consecutive patients undergoing PMBV between 2003-2011 who had comprehensive baseline TTE were included. Patients with suboptimal immediate results (repeat PMBV or mitral surgery within first 6 months) and those with suboptimal TTE strain were excluded. LV strain was analyzed with commercial software (Syngo VVI), and GLS averaged from 18 segments. The primary end point was all-cause mortality. Secondary end point was the composite of death and mitral valve reintervention. Results: Of 110 patients screened, 29 (26%) had unsuitable strain imaging, and 8 (7%) had poor immediate results, leaving 73 in the final cohort. Median follow-up was 3.7 years (interquartile range 1.3-7.2). There were 10 deaths (14%) and 25 late mitral valve interventions (34%). Univariate predictors of death were GLS, age, EF, stroke volume, pulmonary artery pressure, mitral valve area and coronary artery disease. In a multivariate Cox model, GLS was the strongest predictor of death after adjustment for age [HR=1.40 (1.09-1.84), P=0.008]. For the composite endpoint, GLS, mitral valve gradient, and invasively mean left atrial pressure were univariate predictors of death or reintervention. At multivariate analysis, GLS was the sole predictor of events [HR=1.17 (1.01-1.34), P=0.03]. Event-free survival is shown in figure. Intra and inter observer intra-class correlation for strain analysis was 0.87 (0.66-0.96) and 0.84 (0.53-0.95), respectively. Conclusions: GLS is a powerful predictor of long-term outcome after PMVB and appears to have an incremental prognostic value over traditional parameters.

Introduction: Mitral regurgitation (MR) is defined as an abnormal reversal of blood flow from the left ventricle to the left atrium (LA). It is caused by disruption in any part of the mitral valve apparatus. Surgical intervention remains the mainstay of management for severe cases. Case summary: We are reporting a case of pneumonia with severe sepsis, that had a complicated hospital course. The patient developed multi-organ failure. Echocardiography on admission showed severe mitral regurgitation. He required early mechanical ventilation and then Veno-venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (VV-ECMO) over 29 days. He might be the first case of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in our hospital. Mitral valve replacement was done after stabilization of the patient and weaning from the ECMO. Discussion: Our report demonstrates that the use of a long term VV-ECMO as a bridge for stabilization, facilitates management of the critically ill respiratory failure patient with severe MR and patient outcomes. Still the long-term results and the optimal timing of intervention need more research to define. Conclusion: Our report demonstrates that the use of a long term VV ECMO facilitates management of patients with respiratory failure associated with severe MR. Future studies focusing on stabilizing such patients, might help to define the optimal timing for intervention in these patients and the long-term outcome.
