MitraClip ® Implantation Under Cerebral Protection: A Case Report.
MitraClip® Implantation Under Cerebral Protection: A Case Report. J Heart Valve Dis. 2017 Nov;26(6):728-730 Authors: Pohl J, Luedike P, Alexander Jánosi R, Rassaf T Abstract MitraClip® implantation is commonly used in patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) and who are at high risk for surgical mitral valve repair. The occurrence of stroke or transient ischemic attack is a potential complication in patients undergoing MitraClip implantation, and incidences of up to 2.6% have been reported. Herein is reported the case of an 84-year-old woman with severe MR and a thin filamentous structure at t...

Hemodynamic and clinical performance of Solo stentless bioprosthetic aortic valves
ConclusionsSolo stentless aortic valves are safe to implant, with promising clinical outcomes in short- and medium-term assessment. Moreover, they show an excellent hemodynamic performance: low transvalvular gradients, large effective orifice areas and low incidence of patient-prosthesis mismatch.ResumoObjetivoDescrever o perfil hemodinâmico e resultados clínicos a curto e médio prazo das biopróteses aórticas stentless Freedom SOLO e SOLO Smart implantadas no nosso Centro.MétodosForam incluídos todos os doentes submetidos a substituição valvular aórtica por biopróteses stentless SOLO no nosso Centro, entre 2009 ...

Clinical outcomes of self-expandable vs. balloon-expandable TAVI for severe aortic stenosis.
CONCLUSIONS: This real-world retrospective analysis demonstrates higher rates of ≥ moderate PAR, stroke and pacemaker insertion with SEV compared to BEV at 30 d post-TAVI for severe symptomatic AS. PMID: 30931804 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Midterm Outcomes of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Dialysis Patients With Aortic Valve Stenosis.
CONCLUSIONS: Satisfactory in-hospital outcomes were achieved in dialysis patients after TAVR. Various problems, however, such as complications particular to dialysis patients and valve durability, remained at midterm follow-up. Further studies are recommended to solve these problems, and prudent preoperative assessments should be mandatory. PMID: 31118365 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Infective endocarditis without biological inflammatory syndrome: Description of a particular entity.
CONCLUSIONS: Left-sided valvular IE with limited or no biological syndrome is rare, but is often associated with severe valvular and paravalvular lesions. TOE should be performed in presence of unexplained heart failure, new valvular regurgitation or cardioembolic stroke when TTE is insufficient to rule out endocarditis, even in patients with a low CRP concentration.

Impact of Repositioning During Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement on Embolized Debris.
CONCLUSIONS: Repositioning of the valve prosthesis during TAVR is associated with a larger number and higher total area of embolized debris captured with the dual-filter CEP device. PMID: 31416047 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Interventional Emergency Treatment of Decompensated Severe Aortic Stenosis.
CONCLUSION: Mortality in CS patients due to decompensated severe AS is high, regardless of interventional treatment strategy. Both eBAV and eTAVR seem feasible. As eTAVR is associated with better initial improvements in hemodynamics and simultaneously avoids sequential interventions, it might be favorable to eBAV in select patients. If eTAVR is not available, eBAV might serve as a "bridge" to elective TAVR. PMID: 31611428 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Comparative Outcomes of Transapical Versus Transfemoral Access for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Diabetics
ConclusionsThis observational analysis showed no difference in-hospital mortality between TF-TAVR and TA-TAVR among diabetic patients. Studies exploring the optimal access for TAVR among diabetics are recommended.

Should All Low-risk Patients Now Be Considered for TAVR? Operative Risk, Clinical, and Anatomic Considerations
This article reviews the current data on TAVR in low-risk patients with severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis, highlights the results of the recently published Medtronic Low Risk Randomized Study and PARTNER 3 trials, and describes specific clinical, anatomic, and procedural considerations regarding the optimal treatment choice in this population.Recent FindingsIn low-risk patients, the Medtronic Low Risk Randomized Study demonstrated TAVR to be non-inferior to surgery with respect to the composite endpoint of death or disabling stroke while PARTNER 3 trial proved TAVR to be superior to surgery with regard to the composite e...

Differences in Flow-Gradient Patterns Between Severe Bicuspid Aortic Stenosis and Severe Tricuspid Aortic Stenosis  - Mechanistic Insight From Multimodal Imaging.
CONCLUSIONS: Flow-gradient patterns in bicuspid AS differ from those of tricuspid AS and are associated with the structural and functional characteristics of the aorta. PMID: 31787664 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement for patients with severe bicuspid aortic stenosis
ConclusionsThis initial experience suggests TAVR can be safely performed in patients with BAV achieving similar short-term procedural and clinical outcomes when compared with patients with TAV.Condensed AbstractThe outcomes of 50 patients (8.8%) with bicuspid aortic stenosis (BAV) undergoing TAVR were compared with those of 517 patients (91.2%) with trileaflet aortic valve (TAV) stenosis. Patients with BAV were younger, had higher prevalence of COPD, lower prevalence of CAD, higher BMI and lower STS score. Major complications were similar between the groups, including stroke (2.0% vs. 1.5, P = .567), 30-day all-c...
