Impella‐Assisted High‐Risk Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Cardiogenic Shock With Low‐Flow, Low‐Gradient Aortic Stenosis and Multivessel Coronary Artery Disease: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Patients with cardiogenic shock, low‐flow, low‐gradient aortic stenosis, and multivessel coronary artery disease who are ineligible for surgery present a major therapeutic challenge. Percutaneous mechanical circulatory support may facilitate revascularization in this high‐risk population. A 69‐year‐old man presented after a mechanical fall and

Four‐Chamber Deformation Remodeling and Atrial Fibrillation After Septal Myectomy for Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Echocardiography, Volume 43, Issue 8, August 2026.
After septal myectomy for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, the four chambers of the heart experience unique remodeling patterns that can be visualized with speckle‐tracking strain analysis on echocardiography. This study characterizes those changes and links them to clinical outcomes such as post‐operative atrial fibrillation risk, thereby ...

Contemporary Management of Aortic Stenosis: Timing of Intervention and Lifetime Valve Management

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, Volume 56, Issue 8, August 2026.
As transcatheter treatment expands to younger and lower‐risk patients, aortic stenosis management is evolving from a single procedure to lifelong valve care. This review highlights the key challenges across the patient journey, from timely diagnosis and optimal intervention to durable valve performance, long‐term surveillance, and repeat intervention ...

Transesophageal echocardiography in perioperative period guiding the decision making during hemodynamic instability due to atrial fibrillation [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Anestesiologia
Background and objective: Atrial fibrillation is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, which may occur during the perioperative period and lead to hemodynamic instability due to loss of atrial systolic function.

Zero‐Contrast Versus Contrast‐Guided Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion: A Comparative Analysis of Procedural and Long‐Term Outcomes

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 37, Issue 8, Page 1675-1684, August 2026.
Zero‐contrast left atrial appendage occlusion yielded high procedural success and similar periprocedural adverse event rates compared to the contrast‐guided approach. At 45‐day follow‐up, successful LAA closure (defined as peri‐device leak ≤ 5 mm) and device‐related thrombus rates were similar.

Three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography of the atrial septal defects

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2008
Transesophageal echocardiography has advantages over transthoracic technique in defining morphology of atrial structures. Even though real time three-dimensional echocardiographic imaging is a reality, the off-line reconstruction technique usually allows

Hepatosplanchnic perfusion changes following isolated abdominal trauma and surgery: A scoping review of evidence dominated by pneumoperitoneum models

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 15, August 2026.
Abstract The hepatosplanchnic vascular response to isolated abdominal organ injury remains poorly defined. The aim of this review was to synthesize the available evidence on macrovascular hepatosplanchnic flow and organ‐specific microvascular perfusion following isolated abdominal injury or surgery.

Giant interatrial septal aneurysm mimicking a left atrial mass

Heart Views, 2013
Interatrial septal aneurysm (IASA) consists of redundant atrial septal tissue, which bulges into either the left or the right atrium. The clinical implications of this entity are not entirely clear; however, if it is associated with other cardiac ...

Precision myectomy: Real-time on-pump intracardiac echocardiography for resection in patients with thin septaCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Techniques
Objective: During septal myectomy, once the heart is arrested and drained of blood on cardiopulmonary bypass, transesophageal echocardiography can no longer assess septal thickness.
