Overview
Mitral valve surgery carries the same risks as any surgical procedure, such as DVT, post-operative infections, and adverse reactions to anesthesia. The risks that are specific to open-heart surgery are; heart attack, stroke, arrhythmias, and sternal wound infections. Prosthetic heart valves themselves are also associated with a number of complications.
Complications
Mitral valve surgery carries the same risks as any surgical procedure, such as DVT, post-operative infections, and adverse reactions to anesthesia. The risks that are specific to open-heart surgery are; heart attack, stroke, arrhythmias, and sternal wound infections. Prosthetic heart valves themselves are also associated with a number of complications.[1][2]
Risks of any Surgery
- Blood clots in the legs that may travel to the lungs.
- Blood loss
- Breathing problems
- Infection, including in the lungs, kidneys, bladder, chest, or heart valves.
- Reactions to medicines.
Possible Risks from having Open-Heart Surgery
- Heart attack or stroke
- Heart rhythm problems
- Infection in the cut, which is more likely to happen in people who are obese, have diabetes, or have already had this surgery.
- Memory loss and loss of mental clarity, or "fuzzy thinking."
- Post-pericardiotomy syndrome, which is a low-grade fever and chest pain. This could last for up to 6 months.
Prosthetic Heart Valves are Associated with a Variety of Complications
- Structural deterioration, particularly with bioprosthetic valves.
- Valve obstruction due to thrombosis or pannus formation.
- Systemic embolization
- Bleeding
- Endocarditis and other infections
- Left ventricular systolic dysfunction, which may be preexisting.
- Hemolytic anemia
