ABSTRACT Aortic regurgitation (AR) develops in up to 25%−30% of patients with left ventricular assist device (LVAD). Treatment remains challenging since surgery confers significant peri‐operative risk and the lack of valvular calcification renders transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TF‐TAVI) with non‐dedicated devices technically ...

ABSTRACT Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (ApHCM) is a rare variant of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, typically associated with a benign course. However, complications such as ventricular arrhythmias, apical aneurysms, and thrombus formation may occur. Left ventricular (LV) thrombus is an unusual finding in ApHCM, especially in patients with preserved ...

Mitral anterolateral papillary muscle rupture with partial valve body prolapse and severe mitral regurgitation after acute myocardial infarction (ultrasound schematic). ABSTRACT Due to dual blood supply, ischemic mitral anterolateral papillary muscle rupture is less common than that of posteromedial papillary muscle and is rare in acute myocardial ...

Aberrant Chordae Tendineae Accompanying Severe Subaortic Stenosis
ABSTRACT The aberrant mitral chordae can be attached to various parts of the left ventricular outflow tract, even to the subaortic membrane. Echocardiography makes a major contribution to the detection of the aberrant mitral chordae, and their attachment to the left ventricular region should be considered in echocardiographic assessment.
