Minimally Invasive Versus Conventional Aortic Valve Replacement: a Long Term Registry

Maria Cecilia Hospital1,000 enrolled

Overview

The aim of the present study is to assess in a "real life" case list the outcome of three different surgical approaches for isolated aortic valve surgery in terms of surgery times, morbidity and mortality.

The study will focus on data recorded and collected from daily clinical treatment of patients undergoing isolated aortic valve replacement due to symptomatic aortic stenosis who consented to the use of their personal data. After surgery patients will be followed up to a minimum of 12 months. In-hospital and follow-up outcomes of the different surgical approaches will be analysed.
