Background The occurrence of bleeding gastrointestinal angioectasia in elderly patients with degenerative calcific aortic stenosis is one of the most challenging clinical scenarios. A number of studies have shown that this clinical phenomenon is known as

Allopurinol-induced acquired von Willebrand syndrome
Acquired von Willebrand syndrome (AVWS) is a relatively infrequent but often overlooked finding when testing for von Willebrand factor (VWF) levels in a patient with mucocutaneous bleeding.

Abstract Introduction Severe aortic stenosis (AS) can lead to degradation of high molecular weight (HMW) von Willebrand factor (VWF) which can result in haemostatic abnormalities. While studies have explored changes in VWF profiles before and after surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR), the longer‐term changes in VWF profiles pre‐ and post ...

Gastrointestinal bleeding on continuous‐flow left ventricular assist device therapy
Abstract While technological advances in the field of continuous‐flow left ventricular assist device (CF‐LVAD) are constantly being made, CF‐LVAD recipients are still subjected to a relatively high rate of LVAD‐related adverse events, with post‐LVAD gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) being the most common one.

Aortic stenosis and anemia with an update on approaches to managing angiodysplasia in 2018
Angiodyplasia and aortic stenosis are both conditions that are highly prevalent in elderly people and can often co-exist. Recent studies suggest that this association is related to subtle alterations in plasma coagulation factors.

An unrecognized disease in routine clinical practice: the Heyde’s syndrome
Heyde’s syndrome (HS) is a triade constituted by aortic stenosis, gastrointestinal angiodysplasia and deficiency of high-molecular-weight von Willebrand factor multimers. Until now few cases of HS has been reported and we believe of interest to add a new

Systemic Bevacizumab for Severe Bleeding From Acquired Gastrointestinal Vascular Malformations
Targeted antiangiogenic therapy with systemic bevacizumab for bleeding from acquired GI VMs was found to be safe and effective for chronic and severe bleeding from acquired vascular malformations due to idiopathic angiodysplasia, chronic liver disease, and deficiencies of von Willebrand factor, in a patient population comprised mostly of heavily ...

Aortic Valvuloplasty as Bridging for TAVI in High-Risk Patients with Heyde’s Syndrome: A Case Report
There is a frequent association between aortic valve stenosis and gastrointestinal bleeding, also known as Heyde’s syndrome. In these patients, the aortic valve replacement should be recommended as “gold standard.” In high-surgical-risk patients, the ...
