Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the valent type of valvular heart disease, caused by primary leaflet lesions or annular dilatation secondary to left ventricular dysfunction. It can lead to a series of complications such as volume overload, exacerbated pulmonary congestion, and heart failure, significantly impacting patient prognosis ...

Pulmonary vein stenosis and the pathophysiology of “upstream” pulmonary veins
The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2014 Surgical and catheter-based interventions on pulmonary veins are associated with pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS), which can progress diffusely through the "upstream" pulmonary veins. The mechanism has been rarely studied. We used a porcine model of PVS to assess disease progression with emphasis on the potential role of endothelial-mesenchymal transition

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Advanced heart failure (HF) remains a clinical challenge, and mitral transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) has emerged as a potential bridging strategy. Aims To describe the clinical outcomes of M‐TEER in a single‐center cohort of patients with advanced HF and to identify anatomical and clinical features potentially associated ...

Liver Transplantation for Alagille's Syndrome [PDF]
, 1993 Twenty-three children with Alagille's syndrome and end-stage liver disease underwent liver transplantation with cyclosporine and low-dose steroid immunosuppression. Two to 9 years (mean, 4.4 years) after surgery, 13 (57%) of the children were still alive,

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Paravalvular leak (PVL) is a recognized complication after surgical mitral valve replacement and may cause heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, or hemolysis when moderate or severe. Although redo surgery is the definitive treatment, it carries substantial risk in elderly patients or those with multiple prior cardiac surgeries.

Transcatheter stent-valve implantation in a stenotic pulmonary conduit via a sub-xyphoidian access [PDF]
, 2017 Patients who develop a severe stenosis in biological pulmonary conduits previously implanted for pulmonary outflow trunk reconstructions are treated either by surgical re-replacement, or by transcatheter stent-valve implantation through a femoral vein ...

Impact of competitive flow on wall shear stress in coronary surgery: computational fluid dynamics of a LIMA-LAD model [PDF]
, 2010 Competitive flow from native coronary vessels is considered a major factor in the failure of coronary bypass grafts. However, the pathophysiological effects are not fully understood.

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sinus venosus defect (SVD) is a rare congenital heart anomaly characterised by an abnormal communication between the atria, often associated with partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC). Traditional surgical repair carries significant risks, prompting exploration into less invasive transcatheter approaches.
