Abstract: Advanced NYHA functional class and higher creatinine levels were independent predictors of hospital mortality in patients submitted for valvular reoperations for prosthetic valve dysfunction.

“…The independent predictors of mortality in patients who underwent valvular reoperations for prosthetic valve dysfunction has been reported as; 1-advanced NYHA (New York Heart Association) functional class and 2-higher serum creatinine levels. The mortality rates observed were 9 % for reoperations in the aortic position and 12% in the mitral position (10,11).…”

“…Surgical closure of paravalvular leaks remains the most common therapy for these defects; however, re-do surgery has some limitations, depending on the number of patient comorbidities, including a high recurrence rate (7) as well as high morbidity and mortality rates (7)(8)(9). Furthermore, mortality increases progressively with the number of reoperations: 13% after the first, 15% after the second, and 37% after the third (9).…”
