Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017 BackgroundThe presence of valvular heart disease (VHD) may affect the risk of stroke and mortality in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Community‐based estimates of prevalence and outcomes of specific forms of VHD in patients with AF are lacking ...

Ischemic mitral regurgitation: Individualized treatment prevails [PDF]
The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2015 For years now, the surgical community has been living under the assumption that mitral valve annuloplasty (MVA) is always superior to mitral valve replacement (MVR) in the treatment of ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR). It has become apparent, however, that this was no more than conjecture that was based on weak evidence from several retrospective ...

Coronary artery grafting in infants [PDF]
, 2009 Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiac vale repair is an uncommon surgery in infants. CABG is technically demanding in infants due to the small size not only of the coronary arteries but also the potential graft arteries.

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Sudden hemodynamic deterioration after myocardial infarction should prompt immediate evaluation for papillary muscle rupture, even in the absence of a murmur or large‐vessel occlusion. Acute severe mitral regurgitation from papillary muscle rupture may mimic recurrent ischemia, and early echocardiography with prompt surgical intervention can ...

Chronic Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation [PDF]
Circulation, 2012 Chronic ischemic mitral regurgitation (cIMR) remains a vexing problem for a large number of patients and their respective clinicians. It is estimated that ≈2 million Americans experience cIMR, and this number is likely to increase with an aging general population and improved survival rates for myocardial infarction.1 Despite the large number of ...

Infective Endocarditis Complicated by a Mitral–Aortic Junction Abscess
Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Perivalvular abscess is a life‐threatening complication of infective endocarditis. Early recognition using transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), including advanced three‐dimensional (3D) imaging, is crucial for diagnosis, surgical planning, and timely intervention.

Impact of Prolonged Impella 5.5 Support on Post‐Transplant Outcomes: An Institutional Study
Clinical Transplantation, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Objectives Microaxial flow pump devices are utilized as a bridge to heart transplantation for patients in advanced cardiogenic shock. Little is known about the impact of device duration on post‐transplant outcomes. This study aims to compare post‐transplantation outcomes based on duration of support with the Impella 5.5.
