Patent Foramen Ovale: Epidemiology, Risk Factors, Pathophysiology, Clinical Features, Diagnosis, and Management

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
The clinical manifestations of PFO. Although the majority of PFOs are benign and asymptomatic, they can present with a variety of clinical manifestations, or coexisting with other diseases and aggravating their symptoms, including cerebral diseases (such as CS, epilepsy, TIA, or migraine), systemic embolism (such as embolism in renal artery, coronary ...

Mitral Valvular Cyst Mimicking a Solid Mass: Misdiagnosis with Imaging Modalities

open access: yesEurasian Journal of Medicine, 2019
This report describes a mitral valvular cyst mimicking a solid mass in an 80-year-old patient. The diagnosis was based on histopathological evaluation of the resected material.

Isolated mitral valve hydatid cyst mimicking myxoma: a rare case of mitral valve echinococcosis

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine
Background: Cardiac involvement by Echinococcus granulosus is extremely rare, accounting for less than 2% of all hydatid disease cases. When it occurs, it commonly affects the left ventricle, while valvular involvement is exceedingly unusual.

Intracardiac Shunting and Stroke in Children: A Systematic Review

open access: yes, 2011
In adults, patent foramen ovale or other potential intracardiac shunts are established risk factors for stroke via paradoxical embolization. Stroke is less common in children and risk factors differ.

Palliative Debulking of an Aortic Body Tumour With Right Atrial Invasion in a Dog Under Partial Cardiopulmonary Bypass

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
This report describes a French Bulldog that developed severe right‐sided congestive heart failure due to mechanical obstruction of venous return by a heart‐base tumor extending into the right atrium. Partial cardiopulmonary bypass‐assisted palliative debulking relieved the obstruction and temporarily improved clinical signs and ascites.

Non‐Invasive Assessment of Endothelial Dysfunction and Arterial Stiffness in Fontan Circulation

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, Volume 56, Issue 9, September 2026.
The Fontan procedure is the definitive treatment for complex congenital heart disease, creating a circulation without a subpulmonary ventricle. This altered hemodynamic state negatively affects endothelial function, contributing to progressive organ dysfunction and long‐term morbidity.

Detection of Spatio‐Temporal Dispersion Electrograms Using Complex Signal Identification‐Labeled Abnormal Potential Areas in Patients With Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 37, Issue 9, Page 2112-2115, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Ablation targeting spatio‐temporal dispersion electrograms (STDEs) in addition to pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has been reported to reduce atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence in patients with persistent AF. Background However, STDE identification remains subjective.

Comparison of Pentaspline Pulsed Field Ablation Catheter Mapping Modes to Assess Pulmonary Vein Isolation for Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 37, Issue 9, Page 2023-2030, September 2026.
Pentaspline mapping in pulsed field AF ablation. ABSTRACT Background We assessed the electro‐anatomic mapping (EAM) capabilities of a pulsed field ablation (PFA) system previously guided by fluoroscopy to assess acquisition modes, and effects of near and far‐field signal.

NT‐proBNP as a Predictor of Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence After Cryoballoon, Radiofrequency and Pulsed‐Field Ablation

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 1364-1373, September 2026.
Central Illustration: In a study investigating AF recurrence after PVI with RFA, CBA, and PFA, elevated NT‐proBNP emerged as a strong predictor of recurrence within the first year, outperforming other clinical measures. Color‐coded recurrence‐free survival probability charts derived from these data are proposed to support individualized clinical ...
