Variability in surveillance practice for patients with diagnosis of bicuspid aortic valve syndrome
In patients with bicuspid aortic valves, guidelines call for regular follow-up to monitor disease progression and guide intervention. We aimed to evaluate how closely these recommendations are followed at a tertiary care center. Among 48,504 patients who

Novel Phenotypes in Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital abnormality of the human heart, affecting approximately 1-2% of the general population (Williams, 2006). It is widely accepted that BAV is a very heterogeneous disease and that the different phenotypes of BAV disease may be caused by unique pathogenetic mechanisms.

Pathophysiologic Consequences of Early Coarctation Stenting in a Longitudinal Porcine Model
ABSTRACT Background Novel stent technologies offer early intravascular treatment options for coarctation (COA). Mid‐to‐long‐term cardiovascular responses to early COA stent interventions are undefined. Aims We studied a porcine model of COA, with and without early stent implantation with serial dilation to adult aortic diameters, aiming to define ...

ABSTRACT Background Preprocedural planning with multislice computed tomography (MSCT) is an essential prerequisite for successful transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). However, preprocedural planning is time‐consuming and may contain clinically meaningful interobserver variability.

Aortic Dissection After Previous Aortic Valve Replacement for Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease
The effect of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) phenotype on the future risk of type A aortic dissection is unknown. On the basis of previous data [(1)][1], we hypothesized that the risk of post–aortic valve replacement (AVR) aortic dissection might be different in BAV insufficiency versus BAV ...

Interventional therapies for chronic heart failure: An overview of recent developments
Abstract Heart failure (HF), the final manifestation of most cardiovascular diseases, has become a major global health concern, affecting millions of individuals. Despite basic drug treatments, patients present with high morbidity and mortality rates. However, recent advancements in interventional therapy have shown promising results in improving the ...
