A Case of Venous Tissue Dissection During Transcatheter MitraClip Surgery
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The MitraClip system has been widely used to treat mitral regurgitation. The complications associated with MitraClip surgery typically include clip detachment and mitral valve injury. However, cases of venous tissue dissection during surgery are relatively rare.

Transcatheter closure of Ventricular Septal defects in Malta : initial experience [PDF]
, 2005 Ventricular septal defects (VSD) consist of deficiencies of the wall separating the two ventricles. VSDs are the commonest congenital cardiac defects. Small VSDs rarely require intervention, however, larger defects cause ventricular volume overload with ...

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Nonconvulsive epileptic activity is common after acute brain injury and contributes to neuronal injury and poor outcomes. Although intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) improves detection compared with surface EEG (suEEG), it currently relies on focal recordings of epileptic dynamics.

Paradoxical Embolism due to Persistent Foramen Ovale; a Case Report
Archives of Academic Emergency Medicine, 2016 The mean percentage of cryptogenic strokes among ischemic strokes is 31%, of which one-third may be associated with patent foramen ovale. The foramen ovale is required for blood flow through the fetal atrial septum. It is formed as of the fourth week ...

Diagnosis of Patent Foramen Ovale
JACC: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2010 We read with great interest the improved echocardiographic diagnostic protocol for patent foramen ovale (PFO) by Rana et al. ([1][1]). We wish to highlight some relevant issues. Demonstrating the presence of PFO does not establish its etiopathogenic role in systemic embolization.

Patent Foramen Ovale and Thromboembolic Complications [PDF]
Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2010 The foramen ovale, an atrial septal defect which is essential in the fetal circulation, remains patent through adulthood in approximately 25% of the general population and so it represents the most common persistent abnormality of fetal origin. Patent foramen ovale (PFO) allows interatrial right-to-left blood shunting during those periods of the ...

Patent foramen ovale increases stroke risk in older people
, 2018 Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is prevalent among young patients with cryptogenic stroke, and PFO closure reduces the risk of recurrent stroke in these individuals.

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Bodyweight, age and breed influence the echocardiographic assessment of foals. There are no echocardiographic studies in Standardbred neonatal foals. Objectives To describe echocardiographic values for selected variables, evaluate intra‐ and inter‐observer variability and assess cardiac changes in the first 5 days of life in healthy

Patent Foramen Ovale: Story Closed? [PDF]
Journal of Stroke, 2019 The optimal treatment strategy for secondary prevention in patients with cryptogenic stroke and patent foramen ovale (PFO) has been a matter of controversy for decades. After three randomized trials failed to show a benefit of closure with an excess of complications in the interventional arm, two large recent trials suggest a benefit with regard of ...
