The Myval balloon-expandable (BE) valve has shown encouraging early clinical data in terms of safety and efficacy. Comparative data with other well-established contemporary valves are nonetheless still scarce. This study aims to compare the performance of the Myval BE valve with the Evolut self-expanding (SE) valve.
In this retrospective single-center study, 223 patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis (AS) were included and treated with the Myval BE valve (n = 120) or with the Evolut SE valve (n = 103). Then, 91 pairs were compared after matching. Clinical outcomes were evaluated at 30 days and 1 year. Echocardiographic follow-up was performed at 30 days.
Procedural complications were rare in both groups. At the 30-day follow-up, no significant difference in cardiac death (Myval: 1% vs. Evolut: 2%, = 0.56), stroke (2% vs. 4%, = 0.41) and myocardial infarction (1% vs. 3%, = 0.31) was observed. A permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) was significantly less needed in the Myval group (4% vs. 15%, = 0.01). At 1 year, cardiac death (2% vs. 4%, = 0.41) and the stroke rate (7% vs. 5%, = 0.76) were similar. Moderate-severe paravalvular leakage (PVL) was also comparable in both groups (1% vs. 4%, = 0.17).
Safety and efficacy outcomes were comparable between the two valves, except for a higher PPI rate for the Evolut SE valve. Up to 1-year follow-up, clinical outcomes showed acceptable rates of stroke and cardiac death with both valves. Valve hemodynamics were excellent with a low rate of moderate-severe PVL in both groups.
Myval球囊扩张式(BE)瓣膜在安全性和有效性方面已显示出令人鼓舞的早期临床数据。然而,与其他成熟的当代瓣膜的比较数据仍然很少。本研究旨在比较Myval BE瓣膜与Evolut自膨胀式(SE)瓣膜的性能。
在这项回顾性单中心研究中,纳入223例有症状的重度主动脉瓣狭窄(AS)患者,并用Myval BE瓣膜(n = 120)或Evolut SE瓣膜(n = 103)进行治疗。然后,匹配后比较91对患者。在30天和1年时评估临床结局。在30天时进行超声心动图随访。
两组的手术并发症均很少见。在30天随访时,未观察到心脏死亡(Myval组:1% vs. Evolut组:2%,P = 0.56)、中风(2% vs. 4%,P = 0.41)和心肌梗死(1% vs. 3%,P = 0.31)有显著差异。Myval组需要永久性起搏器植入(PPI)的情况明显更少(4% vs. 15%,P = 0.01)。在1年时,心脏死亡(2% vs. 4%,P = 0.41)和中风发生率(7% vs. 5%,P = 0.76)相似。两组中重度瓣周漏(PVL)也相当(1% vs. 4%,P = 0.17)。
除了Evolut SE瓣膜的PPI率较高外,两种瓣膜的安全性和有效性结局相当。长达1年的随访中,两种瓣膜的中风和心脏死亡发生率均在可接受范围内。两组瓣膜血流动力学良好,中重度PVL发生率低。
