Coronary Perforation During Excimer Laser Angioplasty in a Patient With Prior Thoracic Radiotherapy
ABSTRACT Background Management of heavily calcified coronary lesions remains challenging despite advances in plaque‐modifying technologies. Excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) is an effective adjunctive strategy with a low risk of no‐reflow. Case Summary A 75‐year‐old woman with non–ST‐segment elevation acute coronary syndrome and severe left ...

Interventional Mitral Valve Edge‐to‐Edge Repair in Patients Above 85 Years of Age
ABSTRACT Background Mitral valve transcatheter‐edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) is routinely performed in patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) at high operative risk, frequently including elderly patients. Patients ≥ 85 years, however, are frequently excluded in clinical studies.

Percutaneous mitral valve commissurotomy
Transcatheter therapies have progressively assumed a major role in the treatment of valve heart disease. The major drivers have been population ageing, the high prevalence of valve disease in the elderly, and the consequent need of less invasive ...

ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) with the Acurate Neo has been linked to a significant incidence of paravalvular leakage (PVL), addressed by the Acurate Neo 2 incorporating an active sealing skirt. Recent findings suggest that midframe under‐expansion is associated with worse outcomes.
