Overview
Indications for surgical debridement of vegetations and infected perivalvular tissue, with valve replacement or repair as needed are listed below:[1]
- Moderate to severe congestive heart failure due to valve dysfunction
- Unstable valve prosthesis
- Uncontrolled infection for > 1–3 week despite maximal antimicrobial therapy
- Persistent bacteremia
- Fungal endocarditis
- Relapse after optimal therapy in a prosthetic valve
- Vegetation in Situ
- Prosthetic valve endocarditis with perivalvular invasion
- Endocarditis caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa or other gram-negative bacilli that has not responded after 7–10 days of maximal antimicrobial therapy
- Perivalvular extension of infection and abscess formation
- Staphylococcal infection of prosthesis
- Persistent fever (culture negative)
- Large vegetation (>10 mm is associated with an increased risk of embolism)
- Relapse after optimal therapy in a native valve
- Vegetations that obstruct the valve orifice
- Onset of AV block
2008 ACC/AHA Guidelines for the Management of Patients with Valvular Heart Disease - Indications for Surgery for Native Valve Endocarditis (DO NOT EDIT)[2]
| Class I |
| "1. Surgery of the native valve is indicated in patients with acute infective endocarditis who present with valve stenosis or regurgitation resulting in heart failure. (Level B)" |
| "2. Surgery of the native valve is indicated in patients with acute infective endocarditis who present with AR or MR with hemodynamic evidence of elevated LV end-diastolic or left atrial pressures (e.g., premature closure of MV with AR, rapid decelerating MR signal by continuous-wave Doppler (v-wave cutoff sign), or moderate or severe pulmonary hypertension). (Level B)" |
| "3. Surgery of the native valve is indicated in patients with infective endocarditis caused by fungal or other highly resistant organisms. (Level B)" |
| "4. Surgery of the native valve is indicated in patients with infective endocarditis complicated by heart block, annular or aortic abscess, or destructive penetrating lesions (e.g., sinus of Valsalva to right atrium, right ventricle, or left atrium fistula; mitral leaflet perforation with aortic valve endocarditis; or infection in annulus fibrosa). (Level B)" |
| Class IIa |
| "1. Surgery of the native valve is reasonable in patients with infective endocarditis who present with recurrent emboli and persistent vegetations despite appropriate antibiotic therapy. (Level C)" |
| Class IIb |
| "1. Surgery of the native valve may be considered in patients with infective endocarditis who present with mobile vegetations in excess of 10 mm with or without emboli. (Level C)" |
2008 ACC/AHA Guidelines for the Management of Patients with Valvular Heart Disease - Indications for Surgery for Prosthetic Valve Endocarditis (DO NOT EDIT)[2]
| Class I |
| "1. Consultation with a cardiac surgeon is indicated for patients with infective endocarditis of a prosthetic valve. (Level C)" |
| "2. Surgery is indicated for patients with infective endocarditis of a prosthetic valve who present with heart failure. (Level B)" |
| "3. Surgery is indicated for patients with infective endocarditis of a prosthetic valve who present with dehiscence evidenced by cine fluoroscopy or echocardiography. (Level B)" |
| "4. Surgery is indicated for patients with infective endocarditis of a prosthetic valve who present with evidence of increasing obstruction or worsening regurgitation. (Level C)" |
| "5. Surgery is indicated for patients with infective endocarditis of a prosthetic valve who present with complications (e.g., abscess formation). (Level C)" |
| Class III |
| "1. Routine surgery is not indicated for patients with uncomplicated infective endocarditis of a prosthetic valve caused by first infection with a sensitive organism. (Level C)" |
| Class IIa |
| "1. Surgery is reasonable for patients with infective endocarditis of a prosthetic valve who present with evidence of persistent bacteremia or recurrent emboli despite appropriate antibiotic treatment. (Level C)" |
| "2. Surgery is reasonable for patients with infective endocarditis of a prosthetic valve who present with relapsing infection. (Level C)" |
