Advances in transcatheter mitral and tricuspid therapies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
BACKGROUND: While rheumatic mitral stenosis has been effectively treated percutaneously for more than 20 years, mitral and tricuspid regurgitation treatment appear as a contemporary unmet need.

Predictive Value of Nutrition Indices in Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients Treated With Lenvatinib

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) are simple markers that reflect immune and nutritional status. This retrospective study evaluated their prognostic significance in 276 patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who received first‐line lenvatinib. PNI and GNRI were calculated based on

Percutaneous Aspiration (AngioVac) of a Mitral Valve Vegetation followed by a Transcatheter Mitral Valve-in-Valve Intervention

open access: yes, 2022
The AngioVac transcatheter aspiration system (Angiodynamics) is used to percutaneously extract thrombi as well as vegetations typically growing from the right heart. We report a case of a failed mitral stented bioprosthesis due to a large vegetation that

A Single-Center Review of Clinical Outcomes After Transcatheter Relief of Superior Vena Cava Stenosis in a Pediatric and Young Adult Population

open access: yesJournal of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions
Background: The suspected etiology of superior vena cava (SVC) obstruction is predominantly iatrogenic. Transcatheter interventions relieve stenosis with good long-term results, although there is a paucity of published data in pediatrics.

Sleep‐disordered breathing in valvular heart disease: A Modifiable comorbidity

open access: yesSleep Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) is highly prevalent among patients with valvular heart disease (VHD) and is independently associated with adverse clinical outcomes. The two major phenotypes—obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA)—exhibit distinct distributions across VHD subtypes. CSA predominates in severe aortic stenosis,

Safety and Outcomes of Percutaneous Vegetation Aspiration During Transvenous Lead Extraction: A Multicenter Experience

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) for cardiac implantable electronic device infection has high procedural success, but with a 1‐year mortality approaching 25%. Potential mechanisms include septic embolization and persistent infected lead casts or “ghosts.” Percutaneous mechanical aspiration of lead‐related vegetations during TLE is ...

Patent ductus arteriosus in Qatar: a retrospective study on epidemiology and neonatal outcomes following transcatheter closure

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics
IntroductionPatent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a congenital heart defect resulting from failure of the ductus arteriosus to close after birth. It is particularly common in preterm infants and may become hemodynamically significant, requiring intervention.

Frailty and Five‐Year Mortality After TAVR in Patients Aged 75 Years and Older

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
In patients aged 75 years and older undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement, frailty assessed by the Clinical Frailty Scale was the most robust geriatric factor independently associated with five‐year mortality. This study highlights the specific prognostic value of frailty beyond short‐term outcomes.

Transcatheter Intervention for Complex Ascending Aortic Pseudoaneurysm After Cardiac Surgery

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm (PsA) is an uncommon but surgically challenging problem with high morbidity and mortality. Herein we describe the efficacy and safety of the different approaches to transcatheter intervention for repair of ...
