We adapted a complexity scoring scale to describe the range of parts suffering vegetation and damage, assigning the following weighting: weight 1 for each posterior segment; weight 2 for each anterior segment, commissural segment, left atrium, or left ventricle; weight 3 if the annulus was involved or if pathology extended to a prior mitral operation site. A total of 51 patients were identified and categorized by complexity score into two groups: 1-2: Simple (n = 19); ≥ 3: Complex (n = 32)., Results: MV repair was achieved in 18 patients (95%) in the Simple group and 26 patients (81%) in the Complex group. In the Complex there were 2 in-hospital deaths (6%). There were none in the Simple. The 5-year survival rates were 100% in the Simple and 79.6% in the Complex (P < 0.05). The 5-year rates of freedom from mitral regurgitation were 77.8% in the Simple and 91.5% in the Complex (P = 0.63). The 5-year rates of freedom from recurrence of IE were 93.3% in the Simple and 92.2% in the Complex (P = 0.76)., Conclusions: We found consistent outcomes in terms of recurrent mitral regurgitation and recurrence of IE, regardless of lesion complexity., Journal Article}, title = {Outcomes of surgical treatment for active infective endocarditis of mitral valve compared using complexity scoring.}, year = {2020}, yomi = {ワキサカ, ホダカ and ワキサカ, ホダカ} }
