Redundant Mitral Valve Simulating an Intracardiac Mass on Transesophageal Echocardiography

, 1994
Cardiac ultrasound is a useful diagnostic modality for the evaluation of cardiac masses and tumors. However, normal cardiac structures and normal variants can mimic masses with both transthoracic echocardiography and transesophageal echocardiography.

Zero‐Contrast Versus Contrast‐Guided Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion: A Comparative Analysis of Procedural and Long‐Term Outcomes

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Zero‐contrast left atrial appendage occlusion yielded high procedural success and similar periprocedural adverse event rates compared to the contrast‐guided approach. At 45‐day follow‐up, successful LAA closure (defined as peri‐device leak ≤ 5 mm) and device‐related thrombus rates were similar.

Comparison of Two Pulsed Field Ablation Systems for Atrial Fibrillation: One‐Year Outcomes From a Multicenter Registry

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background While various pulsed field ablation (PFA) systems for atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation have become available in recent years, data comparing long‐term efficacy outcomes remain limited. Purpose To compare long‐term efficacy outcomes of two commercially available PFA systems to perform pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for AF in a ...

Perioperative Management for Patients With Spinal Muscular Atrophy Undergoing Scoliosis Surgery: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This largest Asian case series confirms that posterior spinal fusion for SMA scoliosis is safe and effective despite severe deformity and markedly impaired pulmonary function. Meticulous multidisciplinary care, including advanced airway planning, hemodynamic support, blood management, and proactive electrolyte correction, is critical to optimizing ...

Usefulness of transesophageal echocardiography for diagnosis of infected transvenous permanent pacemakers

, 1994
Se sabía que la ecocardiografía transesofágica es más eficaz que la ecocardiografía transtorácica para detectar vegetaciones en los cables de marcapasos permanentes transvenosos infectados.

Interplay of Probe Stability and Oscillation During Very‐High‐Power Short‐Duration Ablation in Pulmonary Vein Isolation for Atrial Fibrillation

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract presents a comprehensive analysis of probe stability and oscillation during very high‐power short‐duration (vHPSD) pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for atrial fibrillation. The findings indicate that oscillation velocity serves as a more reliable predictor of impedance drop and temperature changes than contact force alone ...
