Survival After Surgical VSD Closure Versus Reference Population. Survival after surgical ventricular septal defect (VSD) closure compared with a reference population. There was no difference in 15-year survival of operated patients compared with the Minnesota white population (p = 0.747).
When one examines Fontan procedures in patients with unbalanced AVSDs, the mortality rates (17 to 31.7%) were higher 144, 145 and actuarial survival rates (66.5% at 5 years and 64.4% at 15 years) were lower 146 and there were more surgical and catheter re-interventions (51.9%) 145.
16 sie 2018 · Patients with small VSDs are thought to have excellent long-term survival, although complications (double-chamber RV, IE, aortic valve prolapse and aortic regurgitation) may manifest in adulthood; consequently, patients with small VSDs warrant lifelong follow-up.
14 kwi 2024 · Surgical repair of VSDs offers several benefits, including a reduced risk of endocarditis, potential improvement in PAH, and overall survival. In the absence of PAH, the operative mortality rate is approximately 1%.
23 wrz 2020 · Furthermore, cumulative survival in the cohort of patients with surgically closed VSDs was 86% at 40 years (excluding in‐hospital operative mortality), which was slightly lower than in the background population. Interestingly, in more than half of cases, late mortality was cardiac related.
2 lut 2023 · The results show that people born with VSD had 10 years lower life expectancy than the general population. Of the people with VSD, 85% survive to 60 years versus 94% for the general population. The differences in the percentages surviving to 80 years were further increased.
18 lut 2022 · The surgical outcomes of VSD closure were excellent, and the survival rates at 10 and 20 years after surgery were 97.0% and 91.7%, respectively. Preoperative AR and coronary cusp deformity with or without prolapse were associated with a moderate or greater degree of AR at the late follow-up.
