Percutaneous aortic valve replacement: valvuloplasty studies in vitro

Abstract: This study demonstrated a large amount of calcific particles after valvuloplasty with a consequently high risk for coronary embolic events in case of highly calcified aortic valves. In times of valvuloplasty rediscovering as part of transcatheter valve implantation, the risk of embolization should be taken into consideration and filtering techniques have to be developed.

“…First, direct myocardial damage is induced by mechanical compression of the left ventricular outflow tract during balloon dilatation and valve implantation and-to a greater extent-by myocardial puncture during transapical interventions. Second, some, 23 but not all, mechanistic studies employing magnetic resonance imaging 24 pointed to the primary role of distal embolization of calcium microparticles into the coronaries during valvuloplasty and prosthesis implantation-a mechanism that is consistent with preclinical evidence 25 as well as evidence of cerebrovascular microemboli post-TAVI. 26 Third, temporary hypotension during rapid pacing or balloon predilatation, excessive bradycardia because of conduction abnormalities, or, conversely, tachycardia in the setting of inotropic hemodynamic support can result in myocardial ischemia attributed to hypoperfusion of the typically hypertrophic myocardium.…”

“…[4][5][6][7] Myocardial injury after TAVI is caused by many factors such as acute aortic regurgitation, elevation of left ventricular ejection fraction, temporary mitral valve regression, hypotension of coronary artery flow during rapid ventricular pacing, coronary ostia occlusion following valve deployment, direct myocardial injury by wire, suicide left ventricle, and particle embolization into the coronary arteries. 5,[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] (Figure 1) Elevated troponin level is an index of myocardial injury. Previous studies show that myocardial injury is significantly associated with a high rate of mortality.…”

“…In the same study, an inverse relationship was found between the aortic annulus-coronary ostium distance and MI ratios, similar to our results; however, unlike our results, the correlation was not statistically significant. 19 In an experimental study in porcine hearts, 22 multiple embolic particles were detected in all coronary arteries after in vitro balloon valvuloplasty of calcified AVs.…”
