Long‐Term Outcomes of Reduced Intensity Conditioning Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Systemic Sclerosis Patients with Impaired Cardiac Function

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective High intensity conditioning autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) is standard of care for patients with advanced SSc. The role of reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) prior to AHSCT in this population remains unclear. We conducted this study to determine the long‐term outcomes of RIC AHSCT in SSc patients with cardiac ...

A Rare but Severe Long-Term Complication of an Implantable Chamber. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Long‐term implantable ports may cause severe complications even years after placement. This case highlights the importance of verifying catheter integrity and tip position before reusing a dormant central venous access device, as delayed mechanical erosion can lead to pericardial effusion and life‐threatening cardiac tamponade.

OCT‐Guided Distal Left Main Bifurcation PCI: Mid‐Term Outcomes From a Multicenter South‐Asian Registry

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Optical coherence tomography (OCT)‐guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) enhances treatment of complex coronary artery lesions, including left main (LM) disease, by enabling lesion morphology assessment and stent optimization, thereby reducing major adverse cardiac events (MACE).

Incidence and Predictors of Hypoattenuated Thickening and Device‐Related Thrombus at Three Months Postprocedural CT Assessment Following Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion With Amplatzer Devices—A Single‐Center Cohort

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) has become a valuable alternative to long‐term anticoagulation for stroke prevention in patients with non‐valvular atrial fibrillation (AF), especially in those at high bleeding risk. Hypoattenuated thickening (HAT) and device‐related thrombus (DRT) remain notable postprocedural concerns ...

Treatment of Coronary Perforation in a Bifurcation: Two‐Stent Strategies With Fenestrated Covered Stents

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coronary perforations are a dreaded complication for any interventional cardiologist. The treatment of this complication is exceptionally difficult when it occurs in a coronary bifurcation. While a conservative approach or a balloon occlusion might be sufficient in some cases, additional treatment is sometimes necessary.
