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.

Emergency transapical mitral valve-in-valve implantation for bioprosthesis failure: transapical implantation of an Edwards Sapien-XT in a dysfunctional mitral bioprosthesis in a critical patient

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2017
Background Valve-in-Valve (VIV) Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) is now the treatment of choice in high-surgical-risk patients with failing aortic bioprosthesis. Although less performed, VIV-Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement (TMVR) is a

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.

Factors associated with cardiovascular events after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant from the US Multicenter Simultaneous Liver–Kidney Transplant Consortium

Hepatology Communications, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a leading complication after both liver and kidney transplantation. Factors associated with and rates of cardiovascular events (CVEs) after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant (SLKT) are unknown. This was a retrospective cohort study of adult SLKT recipients between 2002 and 2017 at six centers in six United Network ...

Early Stent Frame Fracture of SAPIEN 3 Valve in the Pulmonary Position

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 15‐year‐old post‐REV patient underwent transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement with a 23 mm SAPIEN 3 for right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) stenosis and severe regurgitation. At 9 months, recurrent stenosis revealed multiple frame fractures.

Degenerative mitral valve regurgitation: best practice revolution [PDF]

, 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 ...

Perventricular Device Closure of Native Congenital Muscular Ventricular Septal Defects in Small Infants   $\hspace{0.17em}$ ≤ 5 kg: Single‐Center Study of the Risk Factors for Failure of the Intervention and Non‐Optimal Outcome

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Perventricular device closure of muscular VSD in small infants is a less invasive option than surgical closure under cardiopulmonary bypass and offers better outcomes than palliative pulmonary artery banding. However, the specific risk factors that could affect procedural success and optimal outcomes have not been ...
