Serial Changes in Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Gradient and Endocarditis Risk After Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve Replacement

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Infective endocarditis (IE) after transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) remains a significant concern. Although there are overall good short‐term and long‐term hemodynamic outcomes, limited data exist comparing postimplantation echocardiographic findings leading to IE.

Successful Fibrinolytic Therapy in a Challenging Obstructive Prosthetic Mitral Valve Thrombosis

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, 2020
Prosthetic valve thrombosis is a rare and severe complication of the mechanical prosthetic valve. Management can be challenging due to varying clinical presentation, overlapping features of differential diagnosis, and lack of randomized controlled trials

Use of a sandwich technique to repair a left ventricular rupture after mitral valve replacement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
One difficulty with external repair of left ventricular rupture after mitral valve replacement is collateral bleeding in friable myocardium adjacent to the rupture.

Balloon‐Expandable Versus Self‐Expanding Valves in Bicuspid Aortic Stenosis: Insights From the SWEDEHEART Registry

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasingly used in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) stenosis, but there is limited comparative data on balloon‐expandable (BEV) versus self‐expanding valves (SEV) in this population. Aim To compare clinical and hemodynamic outcomes between BEVs and SEVs in patients with BAV

Feasibility and Safety of Transfemoral Aortic Valve Replacement Using Local Anesthesia in the Catheterization Suite Versus General Anesthesia in the Operation Theater

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background For over a decade, transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacements (TF‐TAVR) have been performed at the University Hospital of Nancy. A minimalistic approach to TF‐TAVR, conducted without general anesthesia and entirely percutaneously in a catheterization suite (simplified approach), has been reported to be as safe and ...

Three‐Cusp View Orientation in TAVI: Evaluating LOA Versus Non‐LOA Impact on Outcomes With Contemporary Valve Prostheses

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Optimal projection views during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) procedures are critical for procedural success and patient outcomes. Aims This study investigated the influence of 3‐cusp view orientation—line of alignment (LOA) versus non‐LOA—on procedural outcomes in patients undergoing TAVI with contemporary ...
