Description
Summary:Background With the introduction of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), there is increasing interest in evaluating outcomes of aortic valve replacement (AVR) with or without (+/-) concurrent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) particularly in high-risk patients. We reviewed the characteristics and outcomes of octogenarians undergoing isolated AVR and AVR+CABG. Methods All patients 80 years of age or older undergoing AVR+/-CABG at Auckland City Hospital during 2005-2012 were included, and their characteristics and outcomes analysed. Results There were 93 and 104 octogenarians respectively undergoing isolated AVR and AVR+CABG with mean follow-up of 4.4+/-2.2 years and 4.1+/-2.3 years. Significant differences in baseline and operative characteristics contributed to higher EuroSCORE II (5.9 vs 6.4%, P=0.016) and STS Score (4.9 vs 6.9%, P24 hours (10.7% vs 23.1%, P
