Various techniques for transcatheter retrieval of the atrial septal defect or patent foramen ovale closure devices: a systematic review
J Invasive Cardiol. 2024 Feb 23. doi: 10.25270/jic/23.00290. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAtrial septal abnormalities are common congenital lesions that remain asymptomatic in many patients until adulthood. Adults with atrial septal defects (ASD) most commonly have ostium secundum ASD. Transcatheter closure has become increasingly popular in recent years as a successful alternative method to surgery for treating ASD and patent foramen ovale (PFO). The overall rate of ASD transcatheter closure device embolization has been reported to be less than 1%; however, retrieving the device via surgery or by trans-catheter route can...

Radiation dose during contemporary percutaneous coronary interventions for chronic total occlusion: insights from the PROGRESS-CTO registry
J Invasive Cardiol. 2024 Feb 23. doi: 10.25270/jic/23.00281. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTChronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with high radiation doses. In this manuscript, we examined the contemporary trends and determinants of radiation dose in the PROGRESS CTO (Prospective Global Registry for the Study of CTO Intervention; Clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT02061436) registry. Radiation dose during CTO PCI did not change significantly since 2020, highlighting the need for innovation and operator education to further maintain radiation safety.PMID:38412437 | DOI:10.25270/j...

Combined rotational excimer lASER coronary atherectomy (RASER) in non-crossable, non-dilatable coronary artery disease: Observations from a single center
CONCLUSIONS: In our retrospective, single-center study, patients with CAD who were deemed appropriate for RASER PCI had a high peri-procedural mortality rate. In this context, adjunctive RASER therapy provides acceptable safety and efficacy as a bailout strategy, with at least 3 out of 5 patients achieving satisfactory procedural and angiographic results. Randomized controlled trials are needed to comprehensively compare the clinical outcomes of high-risk RASER PCI vs conservative medical therapy.PMID:38377536 | DOI:10.25270/jic/23.00267 (Source: The Journal of Invasive Cardiology)
