ABSTRACT Background Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) has become a valuable alternative to long‐term anticoagulation for stroke prevention in patients with non‐valvular atrial fibrillation (AF), especially in those at high bleeding risk. Hypoattenuated thickening (HAT) and device‐related thrombus (DRT) remain notable postprocedural concerns ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Moderate‐to‐severe calcification is present in ~20%–30% of patients undergoing coronary angiography. Coronary lesion modification is often necessary to facilitate optimal stent delivery and expansion, with several dedicated devices now approved for calcium modification before stent implantation. The CYCLOPES study aims to evaluate

Transcatheter Left Ventricular Restoration in Ischemic Heart Failure and Dilated Cardiomyopathy
ABSTRACT Ischemic heart disease is the leading global cause of death and frequently progresses to ischemic heart failure (IHF) after myocardial infarction through adverse left ventricular (LV)remodeling. Surgical LV restoration improves ventricular geometry and function but is limited by invasiveness and inconsistent outcomes.
