Fat Around Heart Affects Valve Surgery Outcomes
A Russian study has confirmed that excess fat around the heart, defined as more than 115 cubic centimeters, doubles the risk of arrhythmias and increases the likelihood of stroke and coronary artery disease by 10%. Additionally, this fat impacts the heart mechanically and through inflammation, serving as an independent risk indicator that hampers heart recovery after mitral valve repair surgeries. The study also provides an accurate diagnostic criterion for preoperative imaging to predict recovery outcomes and enable more precise healthcare personalization.
