Surgical Valvuloplasty for Congenital Mitral Insufficiency
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Congenital mitral insufficiency is one of the most common valvular diseases in the pediatric population worldwide, carrying a high morbidity and mortality risk if not treated immediately and properly. Given that mitral replacement likely increased risk of cardiac dysfunction and mitral reoperation, mitral repair is the currently preferred surgical strategy in the majority of pediatric patients with mitral insufficiency. Unfortunately, previous evidences demonstrated the long-term hemodynamic alteration in response to significant mitral regurgitant might lead to a reversible or irreversible pulmonary vascular remodeling regardless of concomitant other cardiac malformations, which is associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality following the surgery. Currently available researches mainly focused the association of pulmonary vascular pressures with risk of mortality and morbidity on adult rheumatic or degenerative mitral insufficiency; however, knowledge is still lacking regarding pediatric population with congenital mitral insufficiency. The investigator wil assess the relationship between baseline sPAP and risk of operative morbidity and mortality.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Recurrence-free survival [Postoperatively; until five years after initial operation]
recurrence-free survival is defined as free of more than moderate mitral valve regurgitation
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Postoperative complications [Postoperatively, until one month after initial operation]
All postoperative complications and their treatment will be registered.
