Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to understand how mitral valve (MV) surgery affects ventricular arrhythmias (VA) in patients with arrhythmic MV prolapse, focusing on the incidence of VA at 1 year post-surgery.
- Researchers reviewed data from 204 patients who underwent MV repair, narrowing it down to 62 patients with arrhythmic MV prolapse, highlighting factors like age, gender, and previous arrhythmias.
- Results showed that after surgery, 98.4% of patients were free from recurrent VA at 30 days, and this dropped to 75.9% at one year, with those having minor baseline VA experiencing no recurrence post-repair.
