Purpose: This study aimed to illustrate how percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty (PBMV) and mitral valve (MV) surgeries influence women of childbearing age with rheumatic mitral valve diseases (RMVDs) from two aspects, including clinical outcomes and their postoperative childbearing performances.
Methods: Female patients with RMVD who were of childbearing age and underwent MV interventions between 2007 and 2019 at Beijing Anzhen Hospital were identified. Outcomes included all-cause deaths, repeated MV interventions, and atrial fibrillation. A survey about childbearing attempts and complications during pregnancy was also performed during follow-up.
Results: A total of 379 patients were involved in this study, consisting of 226 cases of mitral valve replacements, 107 cases of mitral valve repairs (MVrs), and 46 cases of PBMVs. PBMV was associated with higher possibilities of repeated MV interventions (P <0.05). Postoperative childbearing attempts were more frequently observed among bioprosthesis, MVr, and PBMV (P <0.05). However, PBMV and MVr showed a higher incidence of cardiac complications during pregnancy as compared to prosthesis replacement (P <0.05).
Conclusions: MVr and PBMV are not recommended to young female patients for higher incidences of postoperative complications. Safe pregnancy is more likely to be present among patients with biological prosthesis.
