“…Neutrophilic infiltration and advanced vascular wall destruction with aneurysm formation cause local blood flow abnormalities. Endothelial P2 among these cases (37)(38)(39). Heart involvement in BD may progress as endocarditis, myocarditis, pericarditis, intracardiac thrombosis, endomyocardial fibrosis, and valve diseases.…”

“…Mortality of 50% with repeat surgical interventions has been reported. 3 Recognizing Behc¸et's vasculitis has great implications for the perioperative outcome because elevated inflammatory markers impose higher risks of suture line disruption and pseudoaneurysm formation. 4 Hence it is invaluable to consider Behc¸et's disease in the differential diagnosis of aortic regurgitation when no apparent cause is identified.…”

BackgroundThe long-term results of homografts used in systemic circulation are controversial. We assessed the long-term results of using a cryopreserved homograft for an aortic root or aorta and its branch replacement.Materials and MethodsFrom June 1995 to January 2010, 23 patients (male:female=15:8, 45.4±15.6 years) underwent a homograft replacement in the aortic position. The surgical techniques used were aortic root replacement in 15 patients and aortic graft interposition in 8 patients. Indications for the use of a homograft were systemic vasculitis (n=15) and complicated infection (n=8). The duration of clinical follow-up was 65±58 months.ResultsEarly mortality occurred in 2 patients (8.7%). Perioperative complications included atrial arrhythmia (n=3), acute renal failure (n=3), and low cardiac output syndrome (n=2). Late mortality occurred in 6 patients (26.1%). The overall survival rates at 5 and 10 years were 66.3% and 59.6%, respectively. Six patients (28.6%) suffered from homograft-related complications.ConclusionEarly results of homograft replacement in aortic position were favorable. However, close long-term follow-up is required due to the high rate of homograft-related events.
