Presumed Primary Cardiac Angiosarcoma With Atrioventricular Groove Rupture and Right Coronary Artery Compromise: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Primary cardiac angiosarcoma should be considered in patients with hemorrhagic pericardial effusion and a right‐sided infiltrative cardiac mass. Atrioventricular‐groove involvement may cause rupture and right coronary artery compromise, requiring multimodality imaging and emergency salvage surgery; early multidisciplinary planning is essential

Mitral regurgitation

open access: yes, 2018
Mitral regurgitation is the second most frequent indication for valve surgery in Europe. Echocardiography is essential to assess the aetiology of mitral regurgitation, as well as valve anatomy and function. An integrative approach is needed to assess the

The Systolic Anterior Motion After Mitral Valve Repair: A Narrative Review of Current Therapeutic Algorithms in the Operating Room

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Systolic anterior motion (SAM) represents the displacement of the anterior mitral leaflet during ventricular systole toward the interventricular septum, causing an obstruction of the outflow tract. Most of the published data regards the primary SAM that is associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. This review was focused

Three‐Dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiographic Vena Contracta Area for Grading Mitral Regurgitation: Severity Cut‐offs From a Prospective Tunisian Cohort

open access: yesEchocardiography, Volume 43, Issue 9, September 2026.
Three‐dimensional vena contracta area (VCA) measured by transoesophageal echocardiography enables precise accurate quantification of mitral regurgitation severity. In a Tunisian cohort, 3D VCA showed strong correlations with conventional 2D indices and excellent diagnostic performance for severe MR, supporting its use particularly in rheumatic mitral ...

Functional Regurgitation of Atrioventricular Valves and Atrial Fibrillation: An Elusive Pathophysiological Link Deserving Further Attention

open access: yes, 2020
In patients with structurally normal atrioventricular valvular apparatus, functional regurgitation of the mitral or tricuspid valves has been attributed mainly to ventricular dilation and/or dysfunction, through a combination of annulus dilation and ...

The Effect of Treatment Strategy of Chronic Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation on Long-Term Outcomes in Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery
Objective: To investigate the mid- and long-term outcomes of case-based selective strategy of mitral ring annuloplasty during coronary artery bypass grafting in patients with coronary artery disease accompanied by chronic ischemic mitral regurgitation ...

Combined MitraClip implantation and left atrial appendage occlusion using the Watchman device: A case series from a referral center

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2017
Introduction: Patients referred for percutaneous transcatheter mitral valve repair using the MitraClip® system frequently have atrial fibrillation, which imposes additional challenges due to the need for oral anticoagulation.

Right Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain and 30‐Day Mortality in Intermediate‐Risk Pulmonary Embolism: An External Validation Study

open access: yesEchocardiography, Volume 43, Issue 9, September 2026.
Reduced right ventricular global longitudinal strain (RVGLS) was associated with increased 30‐day mortality in an external cohort of patients with intermediate‐risk pulmonary embolism. RVGLS demonstrated discriminative ability (AUC 0.802), and the previously established 17.7% cutoff was associated with differences in 30‐day survival, supporting its ...

Moving Domain Computational Fluid Dynamics to Interface with an Embryonic Model of Cardiac Morphogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Peristaltic contraction of the embryonic heart tube produces time- and spatial-varying wall shear stress (WSS) and pressure gradients (∇P) across the atrioventricular (AV) canal.
