    Incidence and Predictors of Permanent Pacemaker Implantation After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation With a Balloon-Expandable Biosprosthesis in Patients With Bicuspid Aortic Valves
    (Termedia Publishing House Ltd, 2024) Suygun, Hakan; Kasapkara, Haci Ahmet; Guney, Murat Can; Polat, Melike; Bozkurt, Engin
    Introduction:
    There are few data on permanent pacemaker implantation (PPMI) in patients who have undergone transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) stenosis.

    Aim:
    The purpose of this study was to evaluate the predictors and incidence of PPMI in bicuspid patients using a balloon-expandable (BE) TAVI device.

    Material and methods:
    A total of 62 patients with bicuspid morphology who had undergone successful TAVI using a BE device without previous PPMI were included (retrospectively). Their baseline clinical, electrocardiographic (ECG), echocardiographic, and multislice computed tomography (MSCT) details were collected.

    Results:
    The incidence of PPMI after TAVI in this BAV cohort was 12.9%. All eight patients with PPMs were found to have type 1 left-right (LR) fusion morphology. In univariate analysis, the presence of right bundle branch block (RBBB) in preprocedural ECG ( p < 0.0001), short membraneous septum (MS) evaluated in MSCT ( p < 0.0001), and increased annulus-left main coronary artery distance ( p = 0.02) were statistically significant for PPMI. Among these parameters included in the model using multivariate Firth logistic regression analysis, the presence of preprocedural RBBB ( p = 0.001) and shortness of the MS in MSCT ( p = 0.004) were independent risk factors for predicting postprocedural PPMI in patients who underwent TAVI among those with BAV.

    Conclusions:
    Preprocedural RBBB on ECG and shorter MS are independent risk factors for PPMI after TAVI in BAV patients and these parameters should be considered before the procedure to guide clinical decision making. Type 1 LR patients may be considered at increased risk of PPMI.

    Predictive Factors of Cardiac Function Recovery and Mortality in Patients With Reduced Ejection Fraction Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
    (Mdpi, 2025) Guney, Murat Can; Suygun, Hakan; Polat, Melike; Ayhan, Huseyin; Keles, Telat; Ertop, Zeynep Seyma Turinay; Bozkurt, Engin
    Background and Objectives: Patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) are reported to have unfavorable outcomes following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). This study aims to evaluate outcomes and identify predictive factors for LVEF recovery following TAVI in patients with reduced LVEF. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 114 patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis (AS) with LVEF < 40% who underwent TAVI between 2011 and 2023 at two centers. Echocardiographic parameters, including LVEF, ventricular dimensions, and relative wall thickness (RWT), were assessed at baseline and during follow-up. The outcomes and predictors of substantial LVEF improvement and mortality were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression methods. Results: Anemia (OR = 4.345, 95% CI: 1.208-15.626, p = 0.024), RWT (OR = 1.224, 95% CI: 1.064-1.407, p = 0.005), and early post-procedural changes in left ventricular end-systolic dimension (LVESD) (OR = 1.297, 95% CI: 1.037-1.622, p = 0.023) and left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) (OR = 1.346, 95% CI: 1.034-1.753, p = 0.027) at one-month follow-up were identified as significant factors associated with LVEF recovery at one year. Regarding factors related to mortality, higher baseline AVMG levels were associated with a lower probability of death after one year (OR = 0.926, 95% CI: 0.875-0.979, p = 0.007). Conversely, a more limited increase in LVEF from baseline to the final follow-up was linked to poor prognosis and higher mortality at one year (95% CI: 1.045-1.594, p = 0.018). Conclusions: This study demonstrated that TAVI in patients with AS and reduced LVEF can be performed with high procedural success, low mortality, and significant improvement in cardiac function during follow-up. Additionally, anemia, baseline RWT, and early post-procedural changes in LVESD and LVEDD were identified as factors associated with LVEF recovery. Baseline AVMG and changes in LVEF at the final follow-up were found to be significant predictors of total mortality.

    Outcomes of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in Patients With and Without Diabetes Mellitus
    (Soc Brasil Cirurgia Cardiovasc, 2024) Ayhan, Huseyin; Guney, Murat Can; Keles, Telat; Bozkurt, Engin
    Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) in patients undergoing cardiac transcatheter or surgical interventions usually is correlated with poor outcomes. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has been developed as a therapy choice for inoperable, high-, or intermediate-risk surgical patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS). Objective: To evaluate the impact of DM and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) on outcomes and survival after TAVI. Methods: Five hundred and fifty-two symptomatic severe AS patients who underwent TAVI, of whom 164 (29.7%) had DM, were included in this retrospective study. Follow-up was performed after 30 days, six months, and annually. Results: The device success and risks of procedural-related complications were similar between patients with and without DM, except for acute kidney injury, which was more frequent in the DM group (2.4% vs. 0%, P=0.021). In-hospital and first-year mortality were similar between the groups (4.9% vs. 3.6%, P=0.490 and 15.0% vs. 11.2%, P=0.282, respectively). There was a statistical difference between HbA1c >= 6.5 and HbA1c <= 6.49 groups in total mortality (34.4% vs. 15.8%, P<0.001, respectively). The only independent predictors were Society of Thoracic Surgeons score (hazard ratio [HR] 1.28, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.09-1.51; P=0.003) and HbA1c level >= 6.5 (HR 10.78, 95% CI 2.58-21.50; P=0.003) in multivariable logistic regression analysis. Conclusion: In this study, we conclude that DM was not correlated with an increased mortality risk or complication rates after TAVI. Also, it was shown that mortality was higher in patients with HbA1c >= 6.5, and it was an independent predictor for long-term mortality.

    Prognostic Implications and Predictors of Mitral Regurgitancy Reduction After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
    (Mdpi, 2024) Guney, Murat Can; Suygun, Hakan; Polat, Melike; Ayhan, Huseyin; Keles, Telat; Ertop, Zeynep Seyma Turinay; Bozkurt, Engin
    Background: Mitral regurgitation (MR) is a common condition observed in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for the treatment of aortic stenosis (AS). However, the impact of TAVI on MR outcomes and the factors predicting MR improvement remains uncertain. Understanding these predictors can enhance patient management and guide clinical decisions. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 156 patients with moderate to severe MR undergoing TAVI. MR severity was assessed via echocardiography at baseline, as well as 6 months and 1 year after TAVI. Patients were divided into groups based on MR reduction: no improvement or worsening, one-degree improvement, and at least two-degree improvement. Clinical, echocardiographic, and procedural characteristics were evaluated as predictive factors for MR improvement after TAVI. Results: MR reduction occurred in 68% of patients at 6 months and 81% at 1 year. Factors predicting a reduction of two grades or more in MR severity included lower baseline LVEDD (OR = 1.345, 95% CI: 1.112-1.628, p = 0.002) lower baseline LA (OR = 1.121, 95% CI: 1.015-1.237, p = 0.024), lower baseline LVMI (OR = 1.109, 95% CI: 1.020-1.207, p = 0.024), and higher baseline EF levels (OR = 1.701, 95% CI: 1.007-2.871, p = 0.047). No significant association was found between MR reduction at 6 months and one-year mortality. (p = 0.65). Conclusions: Baseline echocardiographic parameters are valuable in predicting MR improvement post-TAVI, with LVMI emerging as a novel predictor. However, MR reduction did not independently predict survival, underscoring the need for further research to optimize patient selection and management strategies in TAVI candidates.

    Impact of Simplified Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Approach on Procedural and Clinical Outcomes
    (2025) Güney, Murat Can
    Objectives: Increased operator experience and development of techniques have reduced complication rates, and the new trend is the simplified approach (SA) in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The aim of this study is to compare the safety, efficacy, and outcomes of the SA with the standard non-simplified ap - proach (NSA). Methods: We retrospectively included 517 consecutive symptomatic severe aortic stenosis (AS) patients undergoing TAVI. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia accompanied by TEE and with predilatation in the NSA group. Whereas sedation and local anesthesia, removal of the routine use of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), skipping the predilatation step in appropriate patients is adopted in SA group. Results: Among 517 patients, 144 underwent TAVI with SA and 363 with NSA. The NSA group was treated with the most Sapien XT valve (69.4% vs. 92.8; P<0.001). There were no significant differences in post-procedural complications between the groups as defined by the Valve Academic Research Consortium (VARC)- 2 criteria. Although there was a trend toward lower mortality at 30-day favoring SA group, this finding did not differ significantly between the groups (0% vs. 2.9%, respectively for SA and NSA groups, P=0.058). However, total cumulative mortality at the end of the follow-up period was found to be significantly reduced in the SA group (7.6% vs. 35.7; P<0.001). The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that predilatation, general anesthesia, TEE guidance, and simplified approach were independent predictors of total mortality. Conclusions: Our study showed that simplified TAVI procedure was safe and was no related to adverse events. Compared to the NSA group, SA-TAVI had statistically significant lower total mortality rates.

    Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in Nonagenarians: A Comparative Analysis of Baseline Characteristics and 1-Year Outcomes
    (MDPI, 2025) Guney, Murat Can; Bozkurt, Engin
    Background: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is increasingly used in elderly patients with severe aortic stenosis, yet data on nonagenarians remain limited. This study aimed to compare clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients aged >= 90 years with those aged <90 years undergoing TAVI. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 620 patients who underwent transfemoral TAVI. Patients were divided into two groups: <90 years (n = 545) and >= 90 years (n = 75). Baseline clinical, procedural, and outcome data were compared. Results: Nonagenarians had lower body mass index (BMI) and a lower prevalence of comorbidities such as diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and prior coronary artery bypass grafting CABG (all p < 0.05). All-cause mortality was higher in nonagenarians at 1 month (8.0% vs. 5.5%, p = 0.425), 6 months (9.3% vs. 7.9%, p = 0.838), and 1 year (21.3% vs. 16.7%, p = 0.405), though these differences were not statistically significant. In-hospital stroke occurred more frequently in patients >= 90 years (6.7% vs. 2.2%, p = 0.044). Conclusions: Despite a higher rate of in-hospital stroke, nonagenarians undergoing TAVI had comparable mortality outcomes to younger patients. These findings support the feasibility of TAVI in selected very elderly patients, while highlighting the need for tailored stroke prevention strategies. Trial Registration: The trial is retrospectively registered, and a clinical trial number is not applicable.

    Predictors and Prognostic Implications of Myocardial Injury After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement
    (Texas Heart inst, 2022) Guney, Murat Can; Keles, Telat; Karaduman, Bilge Duran; Ayhan, Huseyin; Suygun, Hakan; Kahyaoglu, Muzaffer; Bozkurt, Engin
    Myocardial injury (MI) is not unusual after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). To determine precipitating factors and prognostic outcomes of MI after TAVR, we retrospectively investigated relationships between MI after TAVR and aortic root dimensions, baseline patient characteristics, echocardiographic findings, and procedural features. Of 474 patients who underwent transfemoral TAVR for severe aortic stenosis in our tertiary center from June 2011 through June 2018, 188 (mean age, 77.7 +/- 7.7 yr; 96 women [51%]) met the study inclusion criteria. Patients were divided into postprocedural MI (PMI) (n=74) and no-PMI (n=114) groups, in accordance with high-sensitivity troponin T levels. We found that MI risk was associated with older age (odds ratio [OR]=1.054; 95% CI, 1.013-1.098; P=0.01), transcatheter heart valve type (OR=10.207; 95% CI, 2.861-36.463; P=0.001), distances from the aortic annulus to the right coronary artery ostium (OR=0.853; 95% CI, 0.731-0.995; P=0.04) and the left main coronary artery ostium (OR=0.747; 95% CI, 0.616-0.906; P=0.003), and baseline glomerular filtration rate (OR=0.985; 95% CI, 0.970-1.000; P= 0.04). Moreover, the PMI group had a longer time to hospital discharge (P=0.001) and a higher permanent pacemaker implantation rate (P=0.04) than did the noPMI group. Our findings may enable better estimation of which patients are at higher risk of MI after TAVR and thus improve the planning and course of clinical care.
