Overview

Complications of aortic stenosis surgery may include 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 valve, reactions to medicines, nausea and vomiting, abnormal or painful scar formation , and allergic skin reactions.[1][2]

Complications

Risks of any Surgery

Surgeries are usually associated with various complications ranging from mild to severe in nature. [1][2][3][4]

  • 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
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Abnormal or painful scar formation
  • Allergic skin reaction

Possible Risks from having Open-Heart Surgery

There are many possible complications after an Open Heart Surgery. The postoperative risk factors can be related to various factors including albumin, TLC and BMI.[5] Some possible complications after a cardiac surgery are:[6][7][8][9]

  • Heart attack or stroke
  • Heart rhythm problems; such as atrial fibrillation
  • 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.
  • Acute Renal Failure
  • Metabolic complications like hyperglycaemia, hypokalemia and increased free fatty acid concentration.

Prosthetic Heart Valves are Associated with a Variety of Complications

The complications associated with a Prosthetic heart valve placement include:[10][11][12][9]
