A recent study conducted at Kepler University Hospital examined the sex-related differences in patients undergoing surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). The study analyzed data from two registries and found that females had a higher surgical risk profile compared to males, with higher scores for BMI, EuroSCORE II, and STS. However, despite these differences, the study concluded that the 2-year outcomes following SAVR were comparable between males and females. This research provides valuable insights into the impact of sex on surgical outcomes and can inform future treatment approaches. [Extracted from the article] |
