Aortic Dissection With Pseudoaneurysm Formation Masquerading as Pulmonary Embolism After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a commonly performed procedure for the treatment of severe aortic stenosis. While it is generally considered a low‐risk procedure, one of the rare potentially life‐threatening complications includes aortic dissection.

Applying DanGer Shock Eligibility Criteria to a Real‐World Cohort of Cardiogenic Shock Patients

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The DanGer Shock trial investigated the effects of adding a microaxial flow pump to guideline‐recommended therapy in patients with ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)‐related cardiogenic shock (CS), finding a lower all‐cause mortality at 180 days in the intervention group.
