    Abstract Objectives: Although risk factors for unsuccessful Maze procedure have been demonstrated, an appropriate patient selection is still controversial. In our institute, Maze procedure is indicated for those whom normal sinus rhythm (NSR) was reestablished by intraoperative direct cardioversion (DC) after ventricular unloading by total cardiopulmonary bypass. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of our indication criteria for Maze procedure in patients with mitral valve disease.
    Methods: Between October 2012 and October 2021, MAZE was indicated in 55 patients in whom normal sinus rhythm (NSR) was reestablished by intraoperative direct current cardioversion (DC). Three endpoints and predictors were examined: disappearance of atrial fibrillation (AF), NSR, and A-wave detection.
    Results: Restoration of NSR by intraoperative DC was confirmed in 43 patients, and these patients underwent MAZE. AF disappeared in 39 patients (90.7%), and F-wave ≥ 0.1 mV was a significant predictive factor (odds ratio (OR) 20.99, 95% CI 1.22-1079.06). NSR was reestablished in 36 patients (83.7%), and F-wave ≥ 0.1 mV (odds ratio 15.62, 95% CI 1.62-359.86) + AF history ≤ 3 years (OR 8.30, 95% CI 1.09-177.04) were significant predictors. A-wave detection was confirmed in 26 patients (60.5%), and left atrial diameter ≤ 55 mm was a significant predictor (OR 5.22, 95% CI 1.28-24.79).
    Conclusions: Intraoperative DC after ventricular unloading resulted effective patient selection for concomitant Maze procedure. F-wave and AF history were predictive factor of electrical restoration of AF, and left atrial diameter was predictive factor of restoration of atrial function.

    Abstract Purpose: We studied the association between operative timing and the feasibility of mitral valve (MV) repair in active infective endocarditis (IE).
    Methods: Forty-nine active IE patients who underwent MV operation were classified according to operative timing: within 48 hours (Term I: n = 7), between 3 and 14 days (Term II: n = 22), and ≥15 days (Term III: n = 20). Patient profiles, operative outcomes, and feasibility of MV repair were evaluated. Complexity score and severity score were used to define the feasibility of MV repair depending on the extent of infected lesion and technical difficulties.
    Results: There were no differences in basic profile in the three groups. Rate of major complications was higher in Term I (86%) than II (41%, p = 0.031) and III (25%, p = 0.005). In-hospital mortality was also higher in Term I (43%) than II (9%, p = 0.039) and III (5%, p = 0.015). The three groups did not differ by feasibility of MV repair calculated by the two-score system or by frequency of MV repair (I: 57%, II: 59%, and III: 55%).
    Conclusions: Morbidity and mortality were high in urgent cases. Feasibility of MV repair is associated with the extent of infected lesion and technical difficulties, and not with operative timing.

    Abstract The right ventricular (RV) impairment can predict clinical adverse events in patients following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for severe aortic stenosis (AS). Limited reports have compared impact of the left ventricular (LV) and RV disorders. This retrospective study evaluated two-year major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in patients following TAVR for severe AS. RV sphericity index was calculated as the ratio between RV mid-ventricular and longitudinal diameters during the end-diastolic phase. Of 239 patients, 2-year MACCE were observed in 34 (14%). LV ejection fraction was 58 ± 11%. Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) and RV sphericity index were 20 ± 3 mm and 0.36 (0.31-0.39). Although the univariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that both LV and RV parameters predicted the outcomes, LV parameters no longer predicted them after adjustment. Lower TAPSE (adjusted hazard ratio per 1 mm, 0.84; 95% confidence interval, 0.75-0.93) and higher RV sphericity index (adjusted hazard ratio per 0.1, 1.94; 95% confidence interval, 1.17-3.22) were adverse clinical predictors. In conclusion, the RV structural and functional disorders predict two-year MACCE, whereas the LV parameters do not. Impact of LV impairment can be attenuated after development of RV disorders.

    Abstract Objective: The midterm results of endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) with aortic side branch coil embolization during EVAR was evaluated.
    Methods: Our center began coil embolization for all patent inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) and lumbar artery (LA) with an inner diameter more than 2.0 mm during EVAR since June 2015. When four or more LA were patent, coil embolization for LA with inner diameter 2.0 mm or less was done. EVAR without aortic side branches coil embolization was performed for 59 patients prior to June 2015 (control group) and 79 patients underwent EVAR with coil embolization during EVAR (coil group). The success rate of coil embolization for IMA and LA was evaluated in coil group. The frequency of type 2 endoleak (T2EL), freedom from aneurysm sac expansion (5 mm or more) rate and the rate of the aneurysm sac shrinkage (10 mm or more) were compared between the coil and control groups. Additionally, multiple logistic regression analysis for all patients was conducted to analyze whether IMA patency and the number of patent lumbar artery at the end of EVAR were the risk factors of the aneurysm sac expansion of 5 mm or more.
    Results: The success rate of IMA coil embolization was 96.4% and that of LA was 74.5%. Compared to the control group, the frequency of T2EL was significantly lower in coil group at 7 days (1.3% vs. 60.4%, P <0.0001) and at 6 months (2.1% vs 38.2%, P <0.0001) after EVAR. The freedom from aneurysm sac expansion rate was significantly better in the coil group at 5 years (100% in coil group and 65.2% in control group, P = 0.002). The rate of aneurysm sac shrinkage was significantly better in coil group (15.5% vs. 2.0% at 1 year, 42.8% vs. 6.3% at 2 years and 53.4% vs. 17.8% at 3 years, p = 0.0007). The risk of aneurysm sac expansion of 5 mm or more was estimated to be 11 times greater when the IMA was patent, and 4.9 times greater when 3 or more LAs were patent at the end of EVAR.
    Conclusion: When IMA was occluded and the number of patent LA became 2 or less by aortic side branch coil embolization during EVAR, favorable mid-term results were safely obtained and good long-term result could be expected with EVAR.

    Abstract Objectives: The purpose of this study was to clarify the influence of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in patients with aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing non-cardiac surgery.
    Methods: Thirty-four patients with severe AS diagnosed by preoperative evaluation for non-cardiac surgery were reviewed and compared in two categories. First, patient profiles and surgical risk were compared before (pre-TAVR group; n = 10) and after (post-TAVR group; n = 24) the introduction of TAVR. Second, the completion rate of non-cardiac surgery and interval between the two cardiac and non-cardiac operations were compared between surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR) patients before the introduction of TAVR (pre-AVR group (n = 10)), in AVR patients after the introduction of TAVR (post-AVR (n = 12)), and in TAVR patients (TAVR group (n = 12)).
    Results: Age and Japan score were higher in the post-TAVR group than in the pre-TAVR group. Malignancy was the most common non-cardiac disease (80%) in the pre-TAVR group, whereas orthopedic disease was the most common (50%) in the post-TAVR group. Completion rate of non-cardiac operation in the pre-AVR, post-AVR and TAVR groups was 70, 33, and 75% (post-AVR vs. TAVR: p = 0.010), and the interval between the two operations was 129 ± 98 days, 87 ± 40 days and 27 ± 15 days, respectively (pre AVR vs. TAVR: p = 0.034 and post AVR vs. TAVR: p = 0.025). In the post-TAVR group, AVR was selected because of a lack of fitness for TAVR in 5 of 12 patients.
    Conclusions: After the introduction of TAVR, more senile and high-risk patients became candidates for a two-stage operation, and orthopedic conditions became the most common non-cardiac disease. Innovation in transcatheter valvular interventions and expansion of indications for patients currently evaluated as "unfit for TAVR" might be crucial issues for non-cardiac surgery with severe AS.

    Abstract According to the current guideline, early surgery is recommended in patients with infective endocarditis (IE). On the other hand, mitral valve plasty (MVP) became the preferred surgical option in patients with IE, because of its benefits in the preservation of left ventricular function and prevention of recurrence of infection. Feasibility of MVP is an important issue in surgical strategy, however, it might be associated with the timing of the operation:feasibility of MVP might be higher in healed IE than active IE, although there had been no clear evidence in previous studies. In order to develop scoring system to predict feasibility of MVP in patients with active IE, we have introduced "severity score".Severity score defined as the sum of valvular score which evaluates the extensiveness of the valvular destruction, and technical score which evaluates the complexity and durability of the repair. Probability of feasible MVP was high in severity score≤7 points and low in severity score≥9 points. MVP is basically selected in patients with severity score of 8 points, taking the benefit of patients and risks of longterm durability into consideration. We believe that severity score is valuable and reproducible scoring system in surgical decision making.

    Abstract Optimal positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) can induce sustained lung function improvement. This prospective, non-randomized interventional study aimed to investigate the effect of individualized PEEP determined using electrical impedance tomography (EIT) in post-cardiac surgery patients (n = 35). Decremental PEEP trials were performed from 20 to 4 cmH2O in steps of 2 cmH2O, guided by EIT. PEEP levels preventing ventilation loss in dependent lung regions (PEEPONLINE) were set. Ventilation distributions and oxygenation before the PEEP trial, and 5 min and 1 h after the PEEPONLINE setting were examined. Furthermore, we analyzed the saved impedance data offline to determine the PEEP levels that provided the best compromise between overdistended and collapsed lung (PEEPODCL). Ventilation distributions of dependent regions increased at 5 min after the PEEPONLINE setting compared with those before the PEEP trial (mean ± standard deviation, 41.3 ± 8.5% vs. 49.1 ± 9.3%; p < 0.001), and were maintained at 1 h thereafter (48.7 ± 9.4%, p < 0.001). Oxygenation also showed sustained improvement. Rescue oxygen therapy (high-flow nasal cannula, noninvasive ventilation) after extubation was less frequent in patients with PEEPONLINE ≥ PEEPODCL than in those with PEEPONLINE < PEEPODCL (1/19 vs. 6/16; p = 0.018). EIT-guided individualized PEEP stabilized the improvement in ventilation distribution and oxygenation. Individual PEEP varies with EIT measures, and may differentially affect oxygenation after cardiac surgery.
