Percutaneous Closure of Perivalvular Leakage After Aortic Valve Replacement Using Preoperative 3D Printing Technology Guidance: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT We report a case of transcatheter paravalvular leak (PVL) closure assisted by three‐dimensional (3D) printing and intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) in a patient with complex valvular history. A 70‐year‐old male manifested acute exacerbation of dyspnea, accompanied by orthopnea and nocturnal paroxysmal respiratory distress.

Neck Circumference and the Heart: Unveiling a New Anthropometric Marker for LVH Risk in Type 2 Diabetes-The TESEO Study. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aim Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is highly prevalent among individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and is a predictor of adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Visceral and ectopic fat accumulation contributes to cardiometabolic risk. Neck circumference (NC) and the neck circumference‐to‐height index (NCI) have emerged as potential markers of ...

Left ventricular fibrosarcoma in a 4‐year‐old labrador
Abstract A 4‐year‐old, male, neutered labrador presented for investigations into a single episode of collapse and an intracardiac mass. Echocardiography and computed tomography confirmed the presence of a large soft tissue mass within the left ventricular lumen, which nearly obstructed the left ventricular outflow tract.

Cardiac disease in systemic sclerosis: Integrating pathobiology with clinical management
Abstract Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex autoimmune disorder in which cardiovascular involvement remains a major determinant of morbidity and mortality. Cardiac injury in SSc results from the interplay of microvascular dysfunction, immune‐mediated inflammation, and progressive interstitial and replacement fibrosis, leading to myocardial disease ...
