Associations of Perirenal Fat Thickness with Renal and Systemic Calcified Atherosclerosis. [PDF]

, 2020
BackgroundWe investigated associations between perirenal fat thickness and atherosclerotic calcification in six different vascular beds.MethodsUsing a community-based cohort (n=3,919), perirenal fat thickness was estimated from computed tomography scans.

Immersed boundary-finite element model of fluid-structure interaction in the aortic root [PDF]

, 2015
It has long been recognized that aortic root elasticity helps to ensure efficient aortic valve closure, but our understanding of the functional importance of the elasticity and geometry of the aortic root continues to evolve as increasingly detailed in ...

Predicting Coronary Occlusion Risk during Redo‐TAVR at First TAVR: Asymmetric Calcification Causes Failure

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Predicting coronary artery occlusion due to sinus sequestration (SS) during a second transcatheter aortic valve (TAV) procedure using pre‐procedural computed tomography (CT) after the first TAV replacement (TAVR) is underreported.

Long‐Term Impact of Prosthesis‐Patient Mismatch After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Small Aortic Annuli

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Prosthesis‐patient mismatch (PPM) remains common following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and is associated with worse clinical outcomes. PPM is of particular concern in small aortic annuli (SAA). Aims To compare the incidence, predictors, and long‐term impact of PPM in SAA TAVR.

Left superior vena cava with coronary sinus ostial atresia with retrograde flow

Journal of Clinical and Scientific Research
The left superior vena cava (LSVC) develops when the left common cardinal vein and the caudal part of the left superior cardinal vein fail to regress. We present a case where LSVC was associated with a bridging vein and coronary sinus ostial atresia. The

Double Trouble in a Patient with Coronary Ectasia, Bradycardia with Angina: Epiphenomenal or Mechanistic Association

Clinical Medicine Insights: Case Reports, 2016
Coronary artery ectasia is a rare angiographical finding, and it accounts for less than 5% of all coronary angiograms. We report a case of a 55-year-old male patient who presented with fatigue and exertional chest pain.

Excessive Ostial Stent Protrusion: Evaluation of Management Strategies and Clinical Outcomes of the Side Flap Technique

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
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.

Malposition of a Port Catheter in the Azygos Vein: Endovascular Repositioning Using a Long Loop Snare Technique

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Port catheters provide a reliable, long‐term venous access option in children for repeated administration of medications or parenteral nutrition. A cardiac catheterization procedure was performed in a 7‐year‐old girl in whom lateral chest radiography revealed posterior deviation suggestive of azygos vein malposition.
