Abstrakt: | Background: Treatment of aortic-valve disease in young patients still poses challenges. The Ross procedure offers several potential advantages that may translate to improved long-term outcomes. Objectives: This study reports long-term outcomes after the Ross procedure. Methods: Adult patients who were included in the Ross Registry between 1988 and 2018 were analyzed. Endpoints were overall survival, reintervention, and major adverse events at maximum follow-up. Multivariable regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors for survival and the need of Ross-related reintervention. Results: There were 2,444 adult patients with a mean age of 44.1 ± 11.7 years identified. Early mortality was 1.0%. Estimated survival after 25 years was 75.8% and did not statistically differ from the general population (p = 0.189). The risk for autograft reintervention was 0.69% per patient-year and 0.62% per patient-year for right-ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) reintervention. Larger aortic annulus diameter (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.12/mm; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.05 to 1.19/mm; p < 0.001) and pre-operative presence of pure aortic insufficiency (HR: 1.74; 95% CI: 1.13 to 2.68; p = 0.01) were independent predictors for autograft reintervention, whereas the use of a biological valve (HR: 8.09; 95% CI: 5.01 to 13.08; p < 0.001) and patient age (HR: 0.97 per year; 95% CI: 0.96 to 0.99; p = 0.001) were independent predictors for RVOT reintervention. Major bleeding, valve thrombosis, permanent stroke, and endocarditis occurred with an incidence of 0.15% per patient-year, 0.07% per patient-year, 0.13%, and 0.36% per patient-year, respectively. Conclusions: The Ross procedure provides excellent survival over a follow-up period of up to 25 years. The rates of reintervention, anticoagulation-related morbidity, and endocarditis were very low. This procedure should therefore be considered as a very suitable treatment option in young patients suffering from aortic-valve disease.
