Popis: Background Many patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) have concomitant mitral regurgitation (MR) of moderate grade or more. The impact of coexistent tricuspid regurgitation (TR) remains to be determined. Methods Patients with severe and symptomatic aortic stenosis [effective orifice area (EOA)≤1cm2] referred for TAVI at our institution were consecutively enrolled. Prospectively collected demographic, laboratory and echocardiographic data were retrospectively analysed. Patients were divided into 4 groups according to MR and TR severity pre-procedurally: no/mild MR and TR, moderate/severe MR, moderate/severe TR, moderate/severe MR and TR. Primary clinical endpoint was all-cause mortality, as defined by the criteria proposed by the Valve Academic Research Consortium2. Results A total of 244 consecutive patients were enrolled in the study: 148 (60.7%) patients no/mild MR and TR, 32 (13.1%) moderate/severe MR, 35 (14.3%) moderate/severe TR, 29 (11.9%) moderate/severe MR and TR pre-procedurally. There was significant difference in pre-procedural pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) among groups (no/mild MR and TR: 40.8±10 mmHg, moderate/severe MR: 46.6±11.2 mmHg, moderate/severe TR: 49.9±13mmHg, moderate/severe MR and TR: 59.8±15.2mmHg, p Conclusion The presence of concomitant moderate or severe mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation was associated with the higher mortality. This suggests that a thorough evaluation of the mechanisms underlying concomitant mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation should be performed to determine the best strategy for avoiding TAVI-related futility.
