기존 인공 판막 대 냉동 보존 대동맥 동종이식을 사용한 감염성 심내막염 수술 (IESCOPHO)

Include patients who received CAH for native (NVE) or prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE).

The CAH are implanted using miniroot procedure. For extended aortic valve infection, aortic root replacement and reconstruction of regional contiguity is the recommended approach. Complicated aortic IE may present with destruction of a large portion of the aortic annulus, annular abscess and colonization of infected foci in contiguous cardiac structures (eg. Aortic root and intervalvular fibrosa).

Use of homograft in first time aortic valve replacement for IE decreased over time (9,4% to 5,6%) and in reoperation (37,5% to 28,5%) in a report from STS database between 2005-2011 (6). Nevertheless, the homograft was used more often in reoperations than in primary interventions (32.2% vs 7.0%, p < 0.0001) in both valve replacements (14,6%) and for root replacements (53,2%) (6).

CAH is used for aortic root reconstruction and for repair of mitro-aortic curtain (emicommando procedure) and it is inserted as miniroot . In cases of PVE the infected prosthesis is removed with aggressive debridement of all infected and necrotic tissue. (7)The coronary ostia are prepared for reconstruction of aortic root. In complex valve endocarditis involving aortic and mitral valve a double homograft may be used.Mitro-aortic endocarditis intervalvular fibrosa is largely involved.The abscess cavity is precisely bounded and debrided. and a double homograft is used for the reconstruction (commando procedure

The insertion of stented/non stented xenograft may be performed using separate or continuos stich with or without teflon pledget. Biological valves may be implated alone or combined with polyester or pericardial patch when reconstruction of annulus is required. In cases of aggressive lesions requiring root and /or intervalvular fibrosa reconstruction the choice of prosthetic bioroot using bioprosthetic valve is considered acceptable alternatives to CAH although it should be guided by the surgeon's experience

Stented/Non stented xenograft may be inserted using separate or continuos stich with or without teflon pledget. The use of biological valves increased from 57% to 67% for primary the operation during which the use of mechanical valves decreased from 30% to 24%. For reoperations, the use of biologic valves increased from 38% to 52% compared to the warning use of mechanical valves from 20% to 17%. A homograft was used in only 2.5% of valve replacements, while a biological valve was used in 68.7% of the cases. This trend is reversed both in NVE and PVE the aortic root was involved (6). In the presence of peri-annular abscess formation and mitro-aortic discontinuity, conventional stented /non stented xenograft are used in combination with synthetic patch for both NVE and PVE.

Mechanical prostheses may be inserted using separate or continuos stich with or without teflon pledget. Prior to 2000, mechanical valves were used in 50% of patients compared to 14% since 2009. Analysis of the STS Database (6) showed that from 2005 to 2011 a progressive shift in favour of biological valves both as the primary operation (NVE) (73%) and in the reoperation (PVE) (27%) compared to mechanical prosthesis.

New tracers may improve diagnostic accuracy, especially for high-risk patients.¹ Antibiotics target bacteria, making them excellent candidates for molecular imaging. The aim of this study is to identify new, selective radiopharmaceuticals for PET and SPECT applications.

A model was used to predict how a tracer would move across a tissue sample. The model included several types of movement, like convection, diffusion, binding to bacteria, and vascular washout. The model also included spatial variations in bacterial density, tissue permeability, and perfusion to estimate how much of the tracer would penetrate the tissue, how much would be retained, and how much would be in the background. The effects of diffusion, binding affinity, and clearance on the predicted tracer distribution were evaluated.
