Delayed repair of esophageal perforation due to transoesophageal echocardiography
Since its introduction into clinical practice in the 1980s, transesophageal echocardiography has become an invaluable tool in cardiac surgery having only a few cases of serious complications reported in the literature.

Successful Percutaneous Edge-to-Edge Mitral Valve Repair in a Patient With Mediastinal Shift
Mediastinal shift often induces deformation of the esophagus and the cardiac chamber. We describe the case of percutaneous mitral edge-to-edge valve repair in a patient with mediastinal shift. Esophagography enabled the advancement of the transesophageal

Transesophageal Echocardiography: Not for Everyone? [PDF]
To the Editor: We read with interest the article by de Bruijn et al comparing transesophageal and transthoracic echocardiography (TEE versus TEE) for the evaluation of TIA or stroke.1 We congratulate the investigators on this important study. TEE proved superior to TTE for identification of a cardiac embolic source in patients with TIA or …

ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for pure native aortic regurgitation (PNAR) remains challenging. While the noncoronary sinus pivot implantation (NCPI) strategy showed promise with VitaFlow valve, its efficacy with other valves needs validation. Aims This study aims to evaluate the real‐world efficacy of the TaurusElite

The correlation between cryptogenic stroke and patent foramen ovale is high in young patients. Currently, transesophageal echocardiography is the gold standard for detection. However, it is invasive and limits Valsalva maneuvers. This article reviews the

ABSTRACT Background Patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) were excluded from all major trials for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). “Suicide left ventricle” occurring after TAVR is postulated to occur as a result of chronic pressure overload from fixed obstruction that is acutely relieved after the valve deployment ...

ABSTRACT An 84‐year‐old man with multiple comorbidities including severe aortic stenosis, heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction, severe peripheral artery disease with prior bilateral iliac artery stents, and trifascicular block presented for evaluation for aortic valve replacement.

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 ...
