Cox-maze IV cryoablation and postoperative heart failure in mitral valve surgery patients

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: The indications for and the risk and benefit of concomitant surgical ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) have not been fully delineated. Our aim was to survey whether the Cox-maze IV procedure is associated with postoperative heart failure (PHF) or other adverse short-term outcomes after mitral valve surgery (MVS). DESIGN: Consecutive patients with AF undergoing MVS with (n = 50) or without (n = 66) concomitant Cox-maze IV cryoablation were analysed regarding perioperative data and one-year mortal… Show more

“…The possible contribution of cryoablation to postoperative heart failure has previously been discussed [38]. The use of inotropes at weaning from extracorporeal circulation was significantly higher in the cryoablation patients compared with the non-ablated patients, but the addition of ablation to mitral valve surgery and the type of energy source did not seem to influence the early postoperative levels of NT-proBNP.…”
