Emergency Transcatheter Repair for Anterior Leaflet Tear Following Percutaneous Balloon Mitral Valvuloplasty

JACC: Case Reports, 2023
We present the case of a 66-year-old woman who developed severe mitral regurgitation from rupture of the anterior mitral valve leaflet following percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty. Emergency transcatheter mitral valve repair was used to reduce the

Changes in hemodynamics of pulmonary artery using Flowire in a canine model of acute pulmonary thromboembolism

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study investigated changes in pulmonary artery hemodynamics using a Flowire catheter and evaluated the accuracy of Doppler echocardiography in dogs with acute pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). Ten healthy beagles were anesthetized, and acute pulmonary hypertension (PH) was induced by injecting 300‐μm dextran microspheres.

Noradrenergic and cholinergic innervation of the normal human heart and changes associated with cardiomyopathy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Autonomic nerves are crucial in cardiac function and pathology. However, data on the distribution of cholinergic and noradrenergic nerves in normal and pathologic human hearts is lacking. Nonfailing donor hearts were pressure‐perfusion fixed, imaged, and dissected. Left ventricular cardiomyopathy samples were also obtained.

Simultaneous implantation of MitraClip devices in a patient with severe mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation

Hellenic Journal of Cardiology, 2019
We present a case of an 84-year old patient with severe mitral and tricuspid regurgitation with a lot of cormobidities who underwent a simultaneous transfemoral (one approach) mitral and tricuspid valve repair using the MitraClip system.

The caveats in the diagnosis of anomalous origin of left coronary artery from pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) [PDF]

, 2010
Anomalous origin of left coronary artery from pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is an infrequent, well described, but important anomaly of the coronary origin. Early diagnosis and prompt surgical treatment of the disease can be life saving. However, there are

One-Year Outcomes After MitraClip for Functional Mitral Regurgitation

Circulation, 2019
Background: Secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) occurs in the absence of organic mitral valve disease and may develop as the left ventricle dilates or remodels or as a result of leaflet tethering with impaired coaptation, most commonly from apical and ...

Less Symptom Improvement in Patients Undergoing TAVI With Concomitant COPD, Atrial Fibrillation and Heart Failure

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Comorbidities like a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) can cause similar symptoms as aortic stenosis (AS). However, how they influence symptom improvement and long‐term outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is unclear.

MitraClip as a therapeutic strategy for post-myocardial infarction mitral regurgitation

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2023
Mitral regurgitation is a serious complication of post-myocardial infarction, with increasing mortality. Surgery as the primary treatment carries a high risk. MitraClip is a new therapeutic to treat post-myocardial infarction mitral regurgitation.
