Abstract figure legend Stasis before and after left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) in participants with high stasis and low stasis. Stasis is predominantly located in LAA and reduced after LAAO. But in the participant with high stasis, stasis remains close to the occlusion site, indicating a potential risk for device related thrombi.

Hemolysis induced by PMIVSD occluder
Hemolysis related to occluder, prosthetic valve, and prosthetic ring used for mitral valve annuloplasty are not very unusual. However, hemolysis related to transcathetor closure of post-myocardial infarction ventricular septal defect (PMIVSD) is ...

ABSTRACT This reports a case of a female aged 65 who presented in cardiogenic shock secondary to an inferior ST‐elevation myocardial infarction and was diagnosed with a post‐infarction ventricular septal defect (VSD) and was also found to have severe mitral valve regurgitation. She was not surgically operable, so underwent percutaneous VSD repair. Over

Percutaneous Occlusion of Vascular Malformations in Pediatric and Adult Patients: 20-Year Experience of a Single Center [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: A case series on different vascular malformations (VM) treated with percutaneous occlusion in children and adults is presented. BACKGROUND: Percutaneous occlusion is usually the preferred treatment method for VM. Previous series have mostly

Background: Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) is the most common type of congenital heart disease and perimembranous type is the commonest form of these defects. Trans-catheter management of these defects is a challenging procedure. Objectives: The purpose

Tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF), a pathological trachea‐esophagus connection, arises congenitally or from malignancy/radiotherapy/trauma, causing aspiration and malnutrition. Diagnosis utilizes imaging and endoscopy. Treatment ranges from endoscopic stenting to surgical repair and conservative management.

Bronchial compression in an infant with isolated secundum atrial septal defect associated with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]
Symptomatic pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in patients with isolated atrial septal defect (ASD) is rare during infancy. We report a case of isolated ASD with severe PAH in an infant who developed airway obstruction as cardiomegaly progressed.

Infective endocarditis of transcatheter atrial septal occluder devices: A case report
Infective endocarditis (IE) is caused by bacterial vegetation in valves, but it can also occur in implanted mechanical devices. We report a rare case of IE occurring at the site of percutaneous atrial septal closure devices in a patient in her 50s that had been placed for residual defects on a closure patch in her childhood for an atrial septal defect (

ABSTRACT Background Despite the emergence of the transcaval (TCv) access route for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in the treatment of patients with hostile iliofemoral anatomy, the number of patients reported in clinical series of TCv TAVI has been relatively small (< 500 published cases). We assessed procedural and clinical outcomes in
