Description
Suk Ho Sohn and co-authors review aortic valve surgery in Korea in a 2023 paper. Catheter-based valve implants have grown fast, and the team asked how open surgery now fares. They studied patients who had isolated surgical valve replacement with tissue valves.
The study covered 456 patients at four large centers, treated from June 2015 to May 2019. Patients averaged about 73 years of age. Death after surgery was low, at 1.8 percent, and stroke and pacemaker rates were each about one percent. Most operations used a full chest opening. The paper reports early and mid-term outcomes to set the current Korean status of the surgery.
