Transcatheter closure of paravalvular leaks: state of the art [PDF]
Paravalvular leak (PVL) is a serious complication after surgical valve replacement or after transcatheter aortic valve replacement. Approximately 1-5% of PVLs can lead to serious clinical consequences, including congestive heart failure and/or haemolytic anaemia.

ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) device closure is an effective treatment option for premature infants with hemodynamically significant PDA. Left pulmonary artery (LPA) stenosis has been reported as a complication, however there is limited data on risk factors, clinical significance, and long‐term outcomes.

Successful Percutaneous Retrieval of an Embolized MitraClip From the Right Subclavian Artery
ABSTRACT Single leaflet device attachment (SLDA) after mitral transcatheter valve edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) has been reported in up to 5% of patients. However, complete embolization of the M‐TEER device is exceedingly rare. Device retrievals in all previously reported cases were completed by vascular surgery cut down at the end. In this case, we are

ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the feasibility and short‐term outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) using balloon‐expandable Sapien valves in patients with prior endovascular aortic stent grafts. Methods We conducted a single‐center, retrospective study of 23 patients with prior endovascular aortic stent grafts who underwent TAVR ...

ABSTRACT Background Acquired aseptic intracardiac communications (AICCs) are rare but clinically relevant structural complications following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), typically resulting from mechanical injury to the aortic annulus, interventricular septum, or adjacent structures.

ABSTRACT The SAPIEN M3 system has been recently approved for transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR). The transeptal guide sheath is used to deploy the dock, which is completely released before inserting and deploying the M3 valve using the same femoral access, transeptal puncture (TSP) and guide sheath.

MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation
Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...
