Systematic Cardiac Phenotyping of Patients With Copy Number Variants in the 15q11.2 Breakpoint 1 to Breakpoint 2 Region: A Retrospective Cohort Study From Nine Pediatric Cardiac Centers

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microdeletions impacting 15q11.2 breakpoint (BP) 1 to BP2, adjacent to the Prader–Willi critical region, have previously described neuropsychiatric associations, with potential low penetrance presentations of congenital heart disease (CHD) also identified.

Longitudinal Echocardiographic Surveillance of Aortic Dilation in a Phenotype‐Enriched Turner Syndrome Cohort

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Turner syndrome (TS) is associated with thoracic aortopathy and increased risk for aortic dissection, yet the natural history of aortic dilation is not well understood. We performed a retrospective longitudinal study of individuals with TS who participated in the TS Society of the United States Healthy Heart Project between 2003 and 2023 ...

Sustained Improvement of Left Ventricular Strain following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

open access: yes, 2019
PURPOSE: Left ventricular (LV) mechanics are impaired in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS). Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become a widespread technique for patients with severe AS considered inoperable or high risk for open ...

Aortic valve disease: Novel animal models for advancing our understanding of the underlying mechanisms

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Due to the complex pathophysiology of aortic valve disease (AVD) and the resulting lack of effective pharmacotherapy, existing animal models are valuable research tools, but each has its own strengths and limitations. This review systematically surveys the major AVD models, compares their induction methods, pathological features, advantages and ...

Predicting pressure gradient using artificial intelligence for transcatheter aortic valve replacementCentral MessagePerspective

open access: yesJTCVS Techniques
Objective: After transcatheter aortic valve replacement, the mean transvalvular pressure gradient indicates the effectiveness of the therapy. The objective is to develop artificial intelligence to predict the post–transcatheter aortic valve replacement ...

Eyes wide shut - unusual two stage repair of pectus excavatum and annuloaortic ectasia in a 37 year old marfan patient: Case report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We report about a 37 year old male patient with a pectus excavatum. The patient was in NYHA functional class III. After performed computed tomography the symptoms were thought to be related to the severity of chest deformation.

Methacrylated Gelatin and Graphene Oxide Hybrid Hydrogels Composed‐Bioinks for 3D Tissue Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Bioinks made from hydrogels, such as methacrylated gelatin (GelMA), serve as the base material for bioprinted tissues, offering versatility and biocompatibility for a range of applications. Additional components however are still needed to improve functionality and mechanical stability of hydrogels. One of these components is graphene oxide (GO), added

Perioperative Outcomes After Bioprosthetic Valve Replacement in Patients Sensitized to Alpha-Gal

open access: yesAnnals of Thoracic Surgery Short Reports
Background: Alpha-gal syndrome from tick bites, due to sensitivity to alpha-gal, can cause severe allergies. Heart valve implants contain alpha-gal, yet alpha-gal syndrome screening is not standard before valve replacement.

Double cardiac pseudoaneurysm in a postoperative patient

open access: yesTürk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2015
A mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication after aortic and mitral valve replacement and aortic root replacement. A left ventricular pseudoaneurysm after mitral valve replacement is also a rare complication.

Endoscopic Aortic Valve Replacement

open access: yesThe Heart Surgery Forum, 2005
During the last 8 years, many different approaches for minimally invasive aortic valve surgery have emerged. We have developed a technique that enables total endoscopic aortic valve replacement with port access, via a small right lateral thoracotomy with only soft tissue retraction and minimally invasive aortic crossclamping. The operation is performed
