Background: Sutureless and rapid-deployment aortic valve replacement (SURD-AVR) has become a prominent area of research as the medical community evaluate its place amongst other aortic valve interventions. The main advantages of SURD-AVR established to date are the reduced cross-clamp and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) times, as well as facilitating minimally invasive surgery in high-risk surgical patients. This current systematic review and meta-analysis, to our knowledge, is the first focusing on long-term outcomes regarding safety, efficacy and durability of SURD-AVR from available current literature.

Methods: A literature search via six electronic databases was performed from their inception to November 2019. Inclusion criteria for this systematic review included survival and postoperative echocardiographic outcomes greater than five years in patients who underwent SURD-AVR with either Perceval or Intuity valves. Studies were identified and data extracted by two independent reviewers. Long-term survival outcomes were aggregated using digitized Kaplan-Meier curves where available.

Results: After applying predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, four studies were identified for review. All four studies were observational and in total reported data for 1,998 patients. Almost half (42.4%) of patients underwent SURD-AVR via full sternotomy, with almost one third (30.1%) also undergoing concomitant cardiac procedures. Aggregate overall survival rates at 1-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year follow-up were 94.9%, 91.2%, 89.0%, and 84.2%, respectively. Incidence of strokes (4.8%), severe paravalvular leaks (PVLs) (1.5%) and permanent pacemaker (PPM) insertion (8.2%) at up to 5-year follow-up were acceptable. At 5-year follow-up hemodynamic outcomes were also acceptable for mean pressure gradient (MPG) (range, 8.8-13.6 mmHg), peak pressure gradient (PPG) (range, 18.9-21.1 mmHg) and effective orifice area (EOA) (range, 1.5-1.8 cm).

Conclusions: Evaluation of the evidence reporting long-term outcomes of SURD-AVR suggests that it is a safe procedure for AVR with low rates of complications. Long-term outcomes presented in this review show that not only does SURD-AVR have acceptable survival rates, but also good hemodynamic performance at 5-year follow-up.

Acta Orthop Belg 2020 Dec;86(4):657-662

Previous studies report good clinical outcomes with the initial mobile-bearing implant design in TKA. Nevertheless clinical data on the subject system are scant and information is lacking to fully appraise the safety and performance of the subject device. A population of 283 consecutive patients who received 307 primary Vanguard ROCC TKAs over a 5. Read More

Department of Radiation Oncology, China Medical University Hospital, Taichung, Taiwan.

Objectives: Image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) is a recommended advanced radiation technique that is associated with fewer acute and chronic toxicities. However, one Phase III trial showed worse overall survival in the IGRT arm. The purpose of this observational study is to evaluate the impact of IGRT on overall survival. Read More

Backgroud: Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is recognized as a multidisciplinary intervention designed to reduce symptoms, improve functional status, and prevent acute exacerbations in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Aim: This study was aimed at evaluating the effects of a long-term PR program on the hospitalization rate and mortality of patients with severe and very severe COPD.

Materials And Methods: This was a prospective study where cohorts of 195 patients undergoing a PR program were followed up for 5 years. Read More

Purpose: As a common head and neck tumor, laryngeal cancer has attracted heightened attention for its treatment and prognosis. Surgery and radiotherapy were mainly therapeutic approaches in laryngeal cancer, and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) was a precision treatment way in radiotherapy. However, the therapeutic effect of surgery plus IMRT in laryngeal cancer was rarely reported. Read More

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type among primary liver cancers (PLC). With its poor prognosis and survival rate, it is necessary for HCC patients to have a long-term follow-up. We believe that there are currently no relevant reports or literature about nomograms for predicting the cancer-specific mortality of HCC patients. Read More
