Chiari I Malformation: Review and Update of Current Treatment Options
ABSTRACT The pathophysiology of Chiari malformation type I (CM‐I) is complex, involving structural abnormalities at the craniovertebral junction that result in herniation of the cerebellar tonsils through the foramen magnum. In this study, we aim to present and evaluate current treatment options for CM‐I, with a focus on evidence‐based clinical ...

ABSTRACT Endovascular treatment (EVT) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesions has progressed recently; however, severely calcified lesions remain difficult to treat owing to challenges in guidewire passage and limited balloon or stent expansion. We report the case of a 79‐year‐old Asian male with intermittent claudication who had previously undergone

ABSTRACT Backgrounds Accurate stent positioning in aorto‐ostial lesions remains challenging due to complex three‐dimensional anatomy, lack of optimal fluoroscopic projections, and high rates of geographic miss. Stent overhang impairs guide catheter re‐engagement and complicates future revascularization.

ABSTRACT We present the case of a 56‐year‐old male with non‐ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and a complex thrombotic lesion at the ostial left circumflex artery (LCX), extending into bifurcating marginal branches. Due to the high risk of side branch occlusion, a stentless strategy using thrombus aspiration, the reverse wire technique, and ...

ABSTRACT Background Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the valent type of valvular heart disease, caused by primary leaflet lesions or annular dilatation secondary to left ventricular dysfunction. It can lead to a series of complications such as volume overload, exacerbated pulmonary congestion, and heart failure, significantly impacting patient prognosis ...

ABSTRACT Background Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary disease (CTEPD) leads to chronic total occlusions (CTOs) of the pulmonary arteries in a minority of patients. Treatment of CTOs with balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) may substantially improve patient hemodynamics but presents unique technical challenges and has previously been associated with a ...

Left Main Stem Perforation: Management Strategies in a Potentially Catastrophic Event
ABSTRACT Left main stem coronary perforation is a potentially fatal complication of percutaneous coronary intervention if not recognized early and treated emergently. Treating left main stem perforation can be challenging due to the significant hemodynamic effect of one of the important steps, namely balloon tamponade.

ABSTRACT Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a frequent comorbidity in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). In addition, new‐onset AF can occur after TAVI. However, data on how AF affects outcomes in patients undergoing TAVI remain conflicting.
