Left Atrial Thrombus Formation in a Patient With Severe Non-rheumatic Mitral Stenosis After Mitral Valve Repair Receiving Dual Antiplatelet Therapy: A Clinical Challenge
A 60-YEAR-OLD, 88-kg, 165-cm woman presented to a community hospital with heart failure 5 years after mitral valve repair for mitral regurgitation. The patient previously suffered an ischemic stroke and was currently treated with dual antiplatelet therapy. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed severe mitral stenosis with a mean transmitral gradient of 10 mmHg and thickening of the posterior left atrial wall. The patient was then transferred to the authors ’ institution for mitral valve replacement.

Efficacy and safety of erythropoietin and iron therapy to reduce red blood cell transfusion in surgical patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionAdministration of ESA and iron therapy reduced the risk for RBC transfusion compared with iron therapy alone in patients undergoing cardiac and non-cardiac surgery. Nevertheless, publication bias and heterogeneity reduces the confidence of the finding. Although the analysis was probably under-powered for some outcomes, no difference in the incidence of serious adverse events was observed with ESA and iron compared with iron alone. Further large prospective trials are required to confirm these findings.

Percutaneous Coronary Artery Revascularization and Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement: Is There a Who, Why, and When?
WITH A PREVALENCE in aortic stenosis (AS) patients of 25% to 50%, concomitant coronary artery disease (CAD) has proven to be an independent risk factor for patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).1 Currently there is no standard- or guideline-driven approach for these patients, and many new challenges have emerged in this population. In this issue of the Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, Bacigalupo et al.2 report a case of a patient with recent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for obstructive CAD who underwent TAVR complicated by in-stent thrombosis and an ischemic stroke ...

Anesthetic Management of a Patient With Ongoing Thrombolytic Therapy During Decompressive Craniectomy: A Case Report
We describe a case in which DC was performed on a 38-year-old man who received thrombolytic therapy for an ischemic stroke involving the middle cerebral artery. His neurological and hemodynamic status worsened during its administration, and DC was performed 6 hours after thrombolysis was performed. Fibrinolytic coagulopathy was successfully managed by monitoring fibrinogen levels and with the administration of cryoprecipitate and tranexamic acid.

Decannulation of a Ventricular Assist Device
BECAUSE OF the donor organ shortage, an increasing number of patients with advanced heart failure are receiving ventricular assist devices (VADs) as a bridge to transplantation or as a destination therapy.1 Patients with advanced heart failure who receive a VAD have significantly greater survival rates compared with those who are treated with only medication.2 However, short- and long-term complications of VADs still are a major concern.3 There are perioperative risks attributed to patient comorbidities; risks of surgery and anesthesia; and postoperative risks such as bleeding, thrombosis, stroke, infection, right ventricu...

Stroke After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement: Incidence, Definitions, Etiologies and Management Options
Neurologic complications after transcatheter aortic valve replacement are devastating. The etiologies of stroke in this setting are best addressed in an integrated fashion during each phase of the perioperative pathway. The conduct of this triphasic approach will continue to be refined to reduce the stroke risks even further, given the major focus on aspects such as embolic protection devices and valve thrombosis. This neurologic focus in transcatheter aortic valve replacement has transformed the investigational approach to neurologic events in cardiovascular clinical trials, resulting in novel guidelines for the diagnosis...
