How to define valvular atrial fibrillation?
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) confers a substantial risk of stroke. Recent trials comparing vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) with non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in AF were performed among patients with so-called "non-valvular" AF. The distinction between "valvular" and "non-valvular" AF remains a matter of debate. Currently, "valvular AF" refers to patients with mitral stenosis or artificial heart valves (and valve repair in North American guidelines only), and should be treated with VKAs. Valvular heart diseases, such as mitral regurgitation, aortic stenosis (AS) and aortic insufficiency, do...

067-I * TREATMENT OF AORTIC VALVE STENOSIS: FIVE YEARS OF EXPERIENCE WITH AN INTEGRATED 360{degrees} APPROACH IN A HIGH-VOLUME CENTRE
Conclusion: The "One Heart–One Team" approach, offering all treatment strategies, techniques and devices, allows a tailor-made, patient-orientated surgery and is of utmost importance for offering an individualised treatment option for almost every patient in almost every risk constellation.

The German Aortic Valve Registry (GARY): in-hospital outcome
Conclusion The in-hospital outcome results of this registry show that conventional surgery yields excellent results in all risk groups and that catheter-based aortic valve replacements is an alternative to conventional surgery in high risk and elderly patients.
