Possible predicative role of electrical risk score on transcatheter aortic valve replacement outcomes in older patients. preliminary data [PDF]
Background:Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is an effective procedure capable to change the natural history of the degenerative aortic valve stenosis.

Resolution of Occlusive Carotid Artery Thrombus Treated with Anticoagulation as Demonstrated on Duplex Ultrasonography. [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: While the majority of cerebral ischemic events due to carotid occlusive disease result from atherosclerotic plaque rupture, intraluminal carotid artery thrombus occasionally occurs in patients without preexisting carotid ...

Arrhythmic risk in elderly patients candidates to transcatheter aortic valve replacement. predicative role of repolarization temporal dispersion [PDF]
Degenerative aortic valve stenosis (AS) is associated to ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death, as well as mental stress in specific patients. In such a context, substrate, autonomic imbalance as well as repolarization dispersion abnormalities ...

Moderate Aortic Stenosis With Cardiac Damage: A New Type of Severe Aortic Stenosis
The clinical implications of severe aortic stenosis have been well established. Understanding of moderate aortic stenosis, however, continues to evolve. Athough moderate aortic stenosis may be less clinically impactful in patients with normal ventricular

Quadrivalvular Involvement in Rheumatic Heart Disease: A Rare Case Report
Four-valve involvement (mitral, aortic, tricuspid, and pulmonary) in rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is an exceedingly rare entity. We report the case of a 24-year-old male, a known case of RHD, who presented with dyspnea and presyncope for 2 months.
