Huge Morgagni Hernia, a Rare Criterion to Favor TAVI Against SAVR

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2023
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation is now a validated treatment option for severe aortic stenosis in patients in whom surgical aortic valve replacement is recommended, especially those associated with an elevated surgical risk.

Intermediate‐Term Risk of Stroke Following Cardiac Procedures in a Nationally Representative Data Set

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundStudies on stroke risk following cardiac procedures addressed only perioperative and long‐term risk following limited higher‐risk procedures, were poorly generalizable, and often failed to stratify by stroke type.

Pacemaker dependency after transcatheter aortic valve replacement compared to surgical aortic valve replacement

open access: yesMedicine, 2021
Abstract Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a standard treatment indicated for severe aortic stenosis in high-risk patients. The objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence of pacemaker dependency after permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) following TAVR or surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) and ...

A Spatiotemporal Single‐Cell Atlas Uncovers Dysregulated ECM Dynamics and Septal Remodeling Arrest in Human Ventricular Septal Defects

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Integrating single‐cell and spatial transcriptomics reveals human ventricular septal defect (VSD) as a disease of microenvironmental insufficiency and structural remodeling arrest. Attenuated endothelial‐fibroblast crosstalk, alongside downregulated THBS1/TGF‐β1 and MMP2 signaling networks, impairs the endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EndoMT) and

TAVR and SAVR: Current Treatment of Aortic Stenosis

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Cardiology, 2012
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) was approved in the United States in late 2011, providing a critically needed alternative therapy for patients with severe aortic stenosis previously refused surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR).

Comparison of frequency, risk factors, and time course of postoperative delirium in octogenarians after transcatheter aortic valve implantation versus surgical aortic valve replacement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Postoperative delirium (PD) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) remains to be explored. We sought to (1) determine the incidence of PD in octogenarians who underwent TAVI or surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR), (2) identify its risk
