Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

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

open access: yesCatheterization 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.

Angioscopy Visualized a Residual Free‐Floating Thrombus in Mild Carotid Artery Stenosis Following Acute MCA Occlusion: A Case Report

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carotid free‐floating thrombus (CFFT) is a rare yet severe cause of the ischemic stroke. Early identification and appropriate management are crucial to prevent recurrent embolic events. A 76‐year‐old man experienced sudden left‐sided hemiparesis and dysarthria.

Transcatheter Repair of Sinus Venosus Defect Using a 12‐zig Covered Cheatham‐Platinum Stent in Large Superior Vena Cava—Right Atrium Junctions: Early Multicenter Experience

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sinus venosus defect (SVD) is a rare congenital heart anomaly characterised by an abnormal communication between the atria, often associated with partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC). Traditional surgical repair carries significant risks, prompting exploration into less invasive transcatheter approaches.

Left Main Stem Perforation: Management Strategies in a Potentially Catastrophic Event

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Left main stem coronary perforation is a potentially fatal complication of percutaneous coronary intervention if not recognized early and treated emergently. Treating left main stem perforation can be challenging due to the significant hemodynamic effect of one of the important steps, namely balloon tamponade.

Sedation with sufentanil and clonidine in patients undergoing heart catheterization

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Sedation for heart catheterization has been a cause for concern. Benzodiazepines, alpha-2 adrenergic agonists and opioids are used for this purpose. However, each drug has advantages and disadvantages.

Unveiling the Microvasculature: The Index of Microcirculatory Resistance and Its Expanding Role in Cardiovascular Care

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) is a cutting‐edge, wire‐based tool that advances the capability assessment of coronary microvascular function. By utilizing distal coronary pressure and mean transit time under maximal hyperemia, IMR delivers consistent, reproducible insights into the microvasculature's dynamic health.
