Objective: To identify risk factors for pediatric mechanical mitral valve replacement (mMVR) to improve management in this challenging population. Methods: From 1993 to 2019, 93 children underwent 119 mMVR operations (median age, 8.8 years [interquartile range [IQR]: 2.1-13.3], 54.6% females) at our institution. Twenty-six (21.8%) patients underwent mMVR at ≤2 years and 93 (78.2%) patients underwent mMVR at >2 years. Median follow-up duration was 7.6 years [IQR: 3.2-12.4]. Results: Early mortality was 9.7%, but decreased with time and was 0% in the most recent era (13.9% from 1993 to 2000, 7.3% from 2001 to 2010, 0% from 2011 to 2019, P = .04). It was higher in patients ≤2 years compared to patients >2 years (26.9% vs 2.2%, P < .01). On multivariable analysis for mitral valve reoperation, valve size <23 mm was significant with a hazard ratio of 5.38 (4.87-19.47, P = .01);. Perioperative stroke occurred in 1% and permanent pacemaker was necessary in 12%. Freedom from mitral valve reoperation was higher in patients >2 years and those with a prosthesis ≥23 mm. Median time to reoperation was 7 years (IQR: 4.5-9.1) in patients >2 years and 3.5 years (IQR: 0.6-7.1) in patients ≤2 years ( P = .0511), but was similar between prosthesis sizes ( P = .6). During follow-up period (median 7.6 years [IQR: 3.2-12.4], stroke occurred in 10%, prosthetic valve thrombosis requiring reoperation in 4%, endocarditis in 3%, and bleeding in 1%. Conclusion: Early and late outcomes of mMVR in children are improved when performed at age >2 years and with prosthesis size ≥23 mm. These factors should be considered in the timing of mMVR.

Background: Minimally invasive mitral valve surgery became an attractive option because of its cosmetic advantages over the conventional approach. The superiority of the minimally invasive approach regarding other aspects is still debatable. The aim of our study was to determine the potential benefits of minimally invasive mitral valve replacement with intraoperative video assistance over conventional surgery. Methods: This is a single-center prospective cohort study that included 60 patients with rheumatic heart disease who underwent mitral valve replacement. Patients were divided into two groups: group (A) included patients who had conventional sternotomy (n= 30), and group (B) included patients who had video-assisted minimally invasive mitral valve replacement (n= 30). Intraoperative and postoperative outcomes were compared between both groups. Results: Mortality occurred in one patient in the group (A). Cardiopulmonary bypass time was 118.93 ± 29.84 minutes vs. 64.73 ± 19.16 minutes in group B and A respectively (p< 0.001), and ischemic time was 102.27 ± 30.03 minutes vs. 53.67± 18.46 minutes in group B and A respectively (P < 0.001). Ventilation time was 2.77± 2.27 vs. 6.28 ± 4.48 hours in group B and A respectively (p< 0.001) and blood transfusion was 0.50 ± 0.63 vs. 2.83 ± 1.34 units in group B and A respectively (p< 0.001).  ICU stay was 1.73 ± 0.64 days in the group (B) vs. 4.47 ± 0.94 days in group A (p< 0.001). Postoperative bleeding was 353.33 ± 146.77 ml in the group (B) vs. 841.67 ± 302.03 ml in group A (p <0.001). No conversion to full sternotomy was reported in group B. In group (B), two cases (6.6%) required re-exploration for bleeding vs. four cases (13.2%) in group (A) (p=0.67). The hospital stay was 6.13 ± 1.59 days in the group (B) vs. 13.27 ± 7.62 days in group A (p< 0.001). Four cases (13.3%) developed mediastinitis in group A and in the group (B), there was one case of acute right lower limb embolic ischemia. Conclusion: Video-assisted minimally invasive mitral operations could be a safe alternative to conventional sternotomy with the potential of lesser morbidity and earlier hospital discharge.

Background: COR-KNOT® (LSI Solutions, New York, NY, USA) is an automated suture securing device has not been well known. We report a case series for first automated knotting device used for minimally invasive heart valve surgery in Bangladesh. Method and Results: To overcome the challenge of knot securing via a Key-Hole surgery we have used CORKNOT ®. The newest device is capable of remotely and automatically secure sutures and simultaneously can cut and remove the excess suture tails. We covered the spectrum of heart valve surgery: There was one case of bioprosthetic aortic valve replacement, one case of mitral valve repair, one case of bioprosthetic mitral valve replacement, one case of failed mitral valve repair with COR-KNOT® explantation followed by mechanical mitral valve replacement and one case of redo-mitral valve replacement. Average length of hospital stays was 5 ± 1days. There was one reopening, one post-operative atrial fibrillation. No wound infection and no 30day mortality. Conclusion: We conclude, COR-KNOT® is a safe and effective tool to reduce the duration of operation. Clinical outcome of heart valve surgery with COR-KNOT® is comparable with other methods of suture tying methods. Bangladesh Heart Journal 2019; 34(2) : 127-131
