Balloon Aortic Valvuloplasty Prior to Self‐Expanding TAVI: The BAVSE‐TAVI Registry
ABSTRACT Background Direct transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) approach is feasible and safe compared to predilatation‐TAVI. Certain clinical and computerized tomography (CT)‐based characteristics might indicate the need for balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) before TAVI, especially with self‐expanding valves.

Anatomical and procedural features associated with aortic root rupture during balloon-expandable transcatheter aortic valve replacement [PDF]
Aortic root rupture is a major concern with balloon-expandable transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). We sought to identify predictors of aortic root rupture during balloon-expandable TAVR by using multidetector computed ...

Management of Lost Atherectomy Devices in the Coronary Arteries
ABSTRACT Rotational and orbital atherectomy are important tools to treat calcific coronary disease. Entrapment of an atherectomy device, that is, rotational atherectomy burr or orbital atherectomy crown, is a serious complication during atherectomy. Loss of an atherectomy device is a more challenging complication that usually follows device entrapment.

Aortic valve replacement with preserved aortic valve homografts
A total of 229 patients underwent aortic valve replacement with a preserved aortic valve homograft during a 7½ year period. The operative mortality rate was 4.8 per cent. Statistical analysis of follow-up data indicated that, for patients who survived the first 30 days after surgery, the 4 year survival rate was 94 per cent and the 7 year survival was ...

Long‐Term Durability of Transcatheter Aortic Valves in Patients With Bicuspid Aortic Stenosis
ABSTRACT Background Data concerning the long‐term durability of transcatheter aortic valves (TAVs) in patients with bicuspid aortic stenosis (AS) are lacking. Aims The study aims to report data on long‐term valve durability following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in bicuspid AS.

ABSTRACT Vasoplegic syndrome (VS) is a common complication after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The main pathophysiology mechanism of VS includes a systemic inflammatory response syndrome due to surgical trauma, release of pro‐inflammatory mediators caused by blood contact with foreign surfaces of heart‐lung machine (pump and tubing)
