Abstract: Background: Patient-prosthesis mismatch (PPM) after surgical aortic valve replacement for severe aortic stenosis has a significant effect on survival. Few studies have identified the risk factors for PPM and related outcomes. This study investigated these risk factors and clarified the outcomes. Methods: , respectively, measured postoperatively through echocardiography. Potential risk factors for PPM and clinical outcomes were evaluated. Results: , p = 0.036), renal insufficiency (32.50% vs. 11.70%, p = 0.026), and aortic annulus diameter (1.99 ± 0.05 vs. 2.17 ± 0.03 cm, p = 0.013) were statistically significant risk factors for severe PPM. The primary outcome was observed in 30.00% and 15.86% of the patients with and without severe PPM, respectively (log-rank p = 0.023). Multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis indicated that severe PPM was a risk factor for the primary outcome (hazard ratio: 2.688, 95% confidence interval: 1.094-6.622, p = 0.031). Conclusions: Our study demonstrated that large BSA, renal insufficiency, and small annulus diameter were risk factors for severe PPM after aortic valve replacement surgery. Severe PPM was associated with worse clinical outcomes.
