A Benign Cardiac Growth but Not So Indolent

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2016
Cardiac lipomatous hypertrophy is a rare benign condition that usually involves the interatrial septum. Due to its benign nature it rarely requires intervention. Its presence outside the interatrial septum is reported infrequently.

Morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve: New insights for comparative studies in mammals

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract New data on the equine aortic valve obtained using advanced techniques is especially important given the greater availability of animal models for translational research. Here we characterized the morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve from 60 healthy hearts collected at equine abattoirs.

Lipomatous Hypertrophy of the Interatrial Septum

Internal Medicine, 2008
Lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum (LHIS) is a rare benign disorder that is characterized by accumulation and deposition of fat in the interatrial septum. Its etiology is still unknown, despite the theories that have been suggested. It usually occurs in older, obese people with a higher incidence in women.

Interventional therapies for chronic heart failure: An overview of recent developments

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1081-1094, April 2025.
Abstract Heart failure (HF), the final manifestation of most cardiovascular diseases, has become a major global health concern, affecting millions of individuals. Despite basic drug treatments, patients present with high morbidity and mortality rates. However, recent advancements in interventional therapy have shown promising results in improving the ...

Phenotype characterization of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in medical device and surgical trials

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
This systematic review identified 24 clinical trials of medical device and surgical interventions for HFpEF, with 16 demonstrating at least safety and feasibility, but little evidence of long‐term benefit. Phenotype‐based responses suggest that certain interventions may benefit specific HFpEF subgroups, yet most trials suffered from heterogeneous ...

Remote pulmonary artery pressure‐guided management of patients with heart failure: A clinical consensus statement of the Heart Failure Association (HFA) of the ESC

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Episodes of worsening heart failure (HF) are a major cause of unplanned hospitalizations. Their onset is usually preceded by an early increase in intracardiac pressures with subsequent worsening of symptoms due to congestion. Implantable devices allowing daily remote pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) monitoring are useful to identify early ...

Characterization of arrhythmia‐induced cardiomyopathy using magnetic resonance imaging in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation and left ventricular systolic dysfunction – insights from DECAAF II

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Arrhythmia‐induced cardiomyopathy (AIC) in left ventricular systolic dysfunction with atrial fibrillation (AF). HFrEF, heart failure with reduced ejection fraction; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction; MRI, magnetic resonance imaging. Abstract Aims Atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation in heart failure reduces mortality and hospitalizations and ...
