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

open access: yesCatheterization 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.

Prognostic value of echocardiographic indices of left atrial morphology and function in dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: The prognostic relevance of left atrial (LA) morphological and functional variables, including those derived from speckle tracking echocardiography (STE), has been little investigated in veterinary medicine.

Percutaneous Management of Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction in an Adult Patient After Atrial Switch: A Case for Targeted Infundibular Ablation

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alcohol septal ablation is a well‐established treatment method for patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. We present a case report of a patient with transposition of the great arteries (TGA) after a Mustard procedure, who developed significant right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (RVOTO), functionally resembling subaortic stenosis ...

Novel Wire‐Assisted Mitral Commissurotomy Reduces Valve Crossing Time Compared to Inoue‐Balloon Technique of Treating Mitral Stenosis, Randomized Controlled Trial (CROSSVal)

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Percutaneous mitral commissurotomy (PMC) of mitral stenosis is routinely performed by the Inoue balloon technique (IBT) which may be challenging with respect to valvular crossing. Using a novel wire‐assisted method (WAM) may improve feasibility and time efficiency. Aims In a randomized clinical trial, we compared the feasibility and

Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy: Literature review and red‐flag symptom clusters for each cardiology specialty

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 955-967, April 2025.
Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...

Cardiac remodelling in the era of the recommended four pillars heart failure medical therapy

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1029-1044, April 2025.
Abstract Cardiac remodelling is a key determinant of worse cardiovascular outcome in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). It affects both the left ventricle (LV) structure and function as well as the left atrium (LA) and the right ventricle (RV).
