Transapical epicardial temporary pacemaker lead implantation in patients with transapical TAVI [PDF]

Open Heart
Objective This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of transapical epicardial temporary pacemaker lead implantation compared with the conventional transvenous approach in patients undergoing transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation (

Transapical explantation of an embolized transcatheter valve [PDF]

Interactive Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2011
Prosthesis embolization represents a severe complication following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). We describe a case of ventricular embolization of the Edwards Sapien valve following transapical TAVI. The prosthesis was extracted successfully using the same transapical access.

The transapical approach for aortic valve implantation [PDF]

Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2008
Percutaneous aortic valve implantation has been performed clinically in high-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis. Transfemoral retrograde valve delivery is limited by concomitant peripheral vascular disease and the size of the delivery system. We report on the alternative transapical approach that allows accurate antegrade placement of a catheter-

Exploratory proof-of-concept study and failure mode analysis of a dual-lumen stent graft for transapical off-pump LVAD implantation [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Transapical off-pump implantation of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) requires a separate inflow cannula and outflow graft. This study represents the first exploratory proof-of-concept evaluation of a dual-lumen stent graft designed to redirect ...

Septal myectomy for obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Comparison of outcomes of the transapical beating-heart and transaortic on-pump approachesCentral MessagePerspective [PDF]

JTCVS Open
Background: Transaortic on-pump septal myectomy (SM) is the established standard for surgical septal reduction, but transapical beating-heart SM recently has emerged as a less invasive alternative.

Non-surgical management of post-Ross left ventricular pseudoaneurysm assisted by virtual reality imaging [PDF]

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology
Infective endocarditis (IE) can cause extensive cardiac tissue destruction, often requiring surgical reconstruction with pericardial patches. The compromised integrity of necrotic tissue increases the risk of pseudoaneurysm formation.

Successful Surgical Therapy of a Chronically Infected Thoracic Fistula After Repeated Cardiovascular High‐Risk Procedures [PDF]

Clinical Case Reports
Chronic thoracic fistulas after transapical TAVI are rare but serious complications. A 67‐year‐old male with prior aortic dissection and two transapical valve implantations developed a chronically infected fistula due to retained apical closure material.
