Combined Application of a Helix‐Fixation Leadless Pacemaker and a Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter‐Defibrillator in a Dialysis Patient: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Combined use of S‐ICD and LP provides an effective alternative for patients requiring defibrillation and pacing while avoiding transvenous leads. This strategy is particularly valuable for patients with a high risk of infection, though careful consideration must be given to minimizing potential device–device interactions.

Presumed Primary Cardiac Angiosarcoma With Atrioventricular Groove Rupture and Right Coronary Artery Compromise: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Primary cardiac angiosarcoma should be considered in patients with hemorrhagic pericardial effusion and a right‐sided infiltrative cardiac mass. Atrioventricular‐groove involvement may cause rupture and right coronary artery compromise, requiring multimodality imaging and emergency salvage surgery; early multidisciplinary planning is essential

The Systolic Anterior Motion After Mitral Valve Repair: A Narrative Review of Current Therapeutic Algorithms in the Operating Room

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Systolic anterior motion (SAM) represents the displacement of the anterior mitral leaflet during ventricular systole toward the interventricular septum, causing an obstruction of the outflow tract. Most of the published data regards the primary SAM that is associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. This review was focused

Degenerative mitral valve regurgitation: best practice revolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Degenerative mitral valve disease often leads to leaflet prolapse due to chordal elongation or rupture, and resulting in mitral valve regurgitation. Guideline referral for surgical intervention centres primarily on symptoms and ventricular dysfunction ...

Acute Rheumatic Fever Without Pharyngitis: A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of General and Family Medicine, Volume 27, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT An 18‐year‐old man presented with fatigue and polyarthralgia refractory to nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). He had no history of sore throat or other upper respiratory symptoms. Reactive arthritis was initially suspected. However, persistent symptoms, fever, polyarthritis, a cardiac murmur, atrioventricular block, and an elevated

Three‐Dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiographic Vena Contracta Area for Grading Mitral Regurgitation: Severity Cut‐offs From a Prospective Tunisian Cohort

open access: yesEchocardiography, Volume 43, Issue 9, September 2026.
Three‐dimensional vena contracta area (VCA) measured by transoesophageal echocardiography enables precise accurate quantification of mitral regurgitation severity. In a Tunisian cohort, 3D VCA showed strong correlations with conventional 2D indices and excellent diagnostic performance for severe MR, supporting its use particularly in rheumatic mitral ...

Mid-term Resuits of Mitral Valve Repair in Mitral Regurgitation

open access: yes, 1996
Between January 1992 and February 1995, 36 patients with mitral regurgitation were treated by a mitral repair. There were nineteen men and seventeen women whose mean age was 41.8 years, ranged from 10 to 71. Seventeenth patients had dystrophic change of

Right Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain and 30‐Day Mortality in Intermediate‐Risk Pulmonary Embolism: An External Validation Study

open access: yesEchocardiography, Volume 43, Issue 9, September 2026.
Reduced right ventricular global longitudinal strain (RVGLS) was associated with increased 30‐day mortality in an external cohort of patients with intermediate‐risk pulmonary embolism. RVGLS demonstrated discriminative ability (AUC 0.802), and the previously established 17.7% cutoff was associated with differences in 30‐day survival, supporting its ...

Early Enhancement of Mitral Annular e' Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: The Role of Early Diastolic Filling

open access: yesEchocardiography, Volume 43, Issue 9, September 2026.
e' increased rapidly after TAVI. The increase in E velocity was independently associated with the increase in e′ even after adjustment for stroke volume, suggesting that early e′ enhancement reflects both improved myocardial relaxation and load‐related mechanisms. ABSTRACT Purpose Early improvements in left ventricular (LV) diastolic function have been
