    Abstract Background: Although many clinicians have made efforts to improve the prognosis for giant left ventricular with valve disease patients, potential markers to judge the prognosis of giant left ventricular patients undergoing valve surgery are still unknown. The purpose of this study was to explore the possible impact factors for giant left ventricle prognosis.
    Methods: From September 2019 to September 2022, 75 patients with preoperative valvular disease with a giant left ventricle (left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD) >65 mm) underwent cardiac valve surgery. The changes in cardiac function one year after surgery were used to describe prognosis and analyze the potential independent factors affecting surgical prognosis. The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was considered to be recovered if it was ≥50% on follow-up echocardiography at least 6 months after the diagnosis.
    Results: The cardiac function of patients with a giant left ventricular and valve disease improved. Compared with preoperation, the left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular end-systolic dimension (LVESD), pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP), NT-proBNP, and cardio thoracic ratio (CTR) were significantly decreased (p < 0.05), and the ratio of severe heart failure was decreased from 60% to 37.33%. In the univariate analyses, the preoperative NT-proBNP levels and PASP were significantly associated with the cardiac function recovery (odds ratio [OR] = 1.001, 95% CI 1.000-1.002, p = 0.027; OR = 1.092, 95% CI 1.015-1.175, p = 0.018). However, during the diagnostic test, PASP did not account for cardiac function recovery (AUROC = 0.505, 95% CI = 0.387-0.713, p = 0.531). Based on the cutoff value in the experiment, we found that a NT-proBNP >753 pg/mL (AUROC = 0.851, 95% CI = 0.757-0.946, p < 0.0001) was a potential prognostic marker for patients with a giant left ventricular valve disease.
    Conclusions: We have demonstrated that an elevated preoperative NT-proBNP level is an independent predictor of cardiac function recovery in a cohort of giant left ventricular patients undergoing valve surgery, and this is the first study about this specific cohort of patients.

    Abstract Ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm (AAP) is rare but may cause life-threatening complications. Although the placement of a stent graft and the use of occluder devices and vascular plugs to exclude pseudoaneurysm are adopted for some patients, the management of progressive pseudoaneurysms that may rupture at any time remains a challenge that needs to be addressed. In this study, we present the case of a patient with an AAP that was caused by aortic and mitral valve replacement for the giant left ventricle. Aortic pseudoaneurysm was suspected on the basis of a spherical cystic echo (70 × 80 mm) of the ascending aorta; this pseudoaneurysm was detected by an ultrasonic cardiogram, and the diagnosis was confirmed by an aortic computed tomography angiography (CTA) examination. To prevent the unexpected rupture of a progressive pseudoaneurysm, our patient was treated with a 28- mm ASD occluder without any procedural complications. Our patient has a good prognosis, which will inspire clinicians to choose minimally invasive procedures when dealing with such high-risk cases in emergency situations.
