ABSTRACT Background Frailty is associated with poorer short‐term outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), and national guidelines recommend an assessment of frailty as part of the decision‐making process. However, multiple frailty indices are currently used in clinical practice, and it is unclear which has the best discrimination ...

A Streamline Strategy for Indication and Length of Telemetry Monitoring After TAVR
ABSTRACT Background Both indication and length of ECG telemetry monitoring (TM) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) are not well defined. Aims We hypothesize that a targeted strategy for monitoring conductive disorders (CD) post‐TAVR can reduce the need and duration of in‐hospital TM without compromising safety. Methods We prospectively

Aneurysmal Degeneration of a Bioprosthesis
We present a clinical case of successful correction of aneurismatic dilatation of the anastomosis zone after allotransplant implantation. In 2004 this patient underwent implantation of an arterial allotransplant of "complex architectonics" because of trauma of the iliofemoral arterial segment.

Prosthetic Mitral Valve Endocarditis due to Vagococcus fluvialis: A Case Report
Infective endocarditis (IE) is an uncommon but life‐threatening disease, most frequently caused by Staphylococcus aureus, streptococci, and enterococci. Vagococcus fluvialis is a Gram‐stain positive coccus, phenotypically close to enterococci, and rarely identified in human infections due to diagnostic challenges.

Transapical aortic ‘valve-in-valve' procedure for degenerated stented bioprosthesis [PDF]
Standard surgical aortic valve replacement with a biological prosthesis remains the treatment of choice for low- and mid-risk elderly patients (traditionally >65 years of age) suffering from severe symptomatic aortic valve stenosis or insufficiency, and ...

Managing Alpha‐Gal Allergy in a Case of Bioprosthetic TAVR
Alpha‐gal syndrome (AGS) is an uncommon IgE‐mediated allergy to mammalian‐derived products, caused by sensitization to the oligosaccharide galactose‐α‐1,3‐galactose (alpha‐gal) after tick exposure. Although AGS is best recognized for delayed anaphylaxis following ingestion of red meat, its implications for exposure to mammalian‐derived biomaterials ...

Disseminated Bartonellosis Masquerading as Autoimmune Glomerulonephritis: A Case Report
Background Although Bartonella henselae is primarily known for causing self‐limiting cat scratch disease in immunocompetent individuals, it can also lead to severe disseminated infections, particularly in immunocompromised patients. Case Presentation We present a rare case of disseminated B.
