Prevalence of atrial septal defects and patent foramen ovale in a cohort of sudden cardiac death patients undergoing autopsy
CONCLUSIONS: The combined rate of PFO and ASD in a cohort of 517 patients undergoing autopsy was 7.9 %. None of these patients had experienced a cerebrovascular accident. This rate of PFOs appears lower than earlier reports and raises the possibility that the relative risk of an associated stroke could be higher than previously estimated.PMID:37734655 | DOI:10.1016/j.jjcc.2023.09.006

Po-04-144 impact of age on atrial arrhythmia outcomes after percutaneous asd closure
Atrial Septal Defects (ASD) are one of the most common congenital heart defects, and if unrepaired, increase the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFL). AF/AFL are linked to an increased risk of stroke and heart failure yet, it is not clear from existing data whether percutaneous ASD closure reduces the overall burden of AF/AFL and whether AF/AFL prevalence is impacted by closure age.

Procedural complications associated with percutaneous mitral balloon valvotomy: a systematic review
Expert Rev Cardiovasc Ther. 2022 Nov 24. doi: 10.1080/14779072.2022.2152328. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: As Percutaneous mitral balloon valvotomy (PMBV) remains the keystone in treating mitral stenosis, we conducted this review to elucidate the cumulative frequency and predictors of complications following PMBV and their occurrence in various patient populations.AREAS COVERED: We searched digital databases for relevant studies covering complications of PMBV and retrieved articles using the Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) keywords.EXPERT OPINION: A total of 37 articles (8 RCTs, 7 nonrandomized clinical trials, ...

Transcatheter versus surgical closure of atrial septal defect in adult patients with tricuspid regurgitation
Conclusions While TAP was effective for the treatment of significant TR, transcatheter ASD closure also significantly reduced TR as well. Transcatheter ASD closure may be considered an alternative treatment option in patients with moderate or severe TR.

Causes of ischemic stroke in young adults versus non-young adults: A multicenter hospital-based observational study
CONCLUSIONS: Certain embolic sources and uncommon causes may be etiologically important causes of ischemic stroke in young adults. However, the contribution of conventional vascular risk factors and lifestyle-related risk factors is not negligible with advancing age, even in young adults.PMID:35830430 | DOI:10.1371/journal.pone.0268481

Atrial fibrillation following transcatheter atrial septal defect closure: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusions The incidence of new-onset AFi/AFl is relatively low following transcatheter closure of secundum ASDs. The rate of de novo AFi/AFl, however, was significantly higher in elderly patients. Shorter follow-up time was associated with a higher reported incidence of AFi/AFl.

Outcome and safety of intracardiac echocardiography guided left atrial appendage closure within zero ‐fluoroscopy atrial fibrillation ablation procedures
ConclusionThe combination of catheter ablation and LAAC under ICE guidance was safe and effective in AF patients with high stroke risk. ICE with our novel protocol was technically feasible for comprehensive and systematic assessment of device implantation.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Predictors of New-Onset Atrial Tachyarrhythmias After Transcatheter Atrial Septal Defect Closure in Adults
This study investigated unknown risk factors for the development of new-onset ATA after transcatheter ASD closure in patients without a history of ATA.

Patients after persistent foramen ovale (PFO) closure: long-term benefits and risks. A contemporary approach to guide clinical decision making
Kardiol Pol. 2021 Feb 17. doi: 10.33963/KP.15817. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPatent foramen ovale is a congenital heart disease, which represents 80% of atrial septal defects and consist of a remnant of fetal circulation that functions in post-natal conditions as a transient interatrial right-to-left shunt of variable magnitude. The PFO may be implicated in the pathogenesis of several medical conditions, such as cryptogenic stroke, cryptogenic left circulation thromboembolism, migraine syndromes, decompression sickness. The most frequent indication for PFO closure remains PFO-associated left circulation thromboembolism....
