The immunology of mitral valve stenosis

International Journal of Interferon, Cytokine and Mediator Research, 2011
Although the prevalence of rheumatic heart disease (RHD) has rapidly subsided over the last several decades in the United States, it still remains a serious cardiovascular disorder across the world, particularly in developing nations. Chronic autoimmune inflammation of the cardiac valves can result in mitral stenosis, increasing the risk of morbidity ...

Mitral annular calcification leading to severe mitral stenosis in a patient with severe calcific aortic stenosis and complete heart block: Different shades of calcium in heart

Journal of Indian College of Cardiology, 2022
Calcium deposition in the heart can present in various ways. Mitral annular calcification (MAC) can cause mitral regurgitation but severe mitral stenosis has been reported very rarely.

A Streamline Strategy for Indication and Length of Telemetry Monitoring After TAVR

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Both indication and length of ECG telemetry monitoring (TM) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) are not well defined. Aims We hypothesize that a targeted strategy for monitoring conductive disorders (CD) post‐TAVR can reduce the need and duration of in‐hospital TM without compromising safety. Methods We prospectively

Conversion to Cardiac Surgery During Elective and Urgent Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become an established treatment for severe aortic stenosis. However, the need for unplanned conversion to cardiac surgery (CS) during TAVI remains an infrequent but critical event. It is unclear whether this risk is higher in patients undergoing urgent procedures.
