Prosthesis Choice in Dialysis Patients Undergoing Mitral Valve Replacement
CONCLUSIONS: MVR in dialysis patients carries significant morbidity and increased mid-term mortality. Decreased life-expectancy should be considered in the tailoring of prosthesis choice to dialysis-dependent patients.PMID:37245789 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2023.05.015

A Rare Cause of Life-Threatening Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding
Question: A 66-year-old woman presented to the hospital with large-volume hematemesis and melena. Her past medical history was significant for an episode of native valve infective endocarditis secondary to a skin infection 4 years earlier, with an associated embolic stroke of the left middle cerebral artery. Her daily medications included aspirin and atorvastatin. She denied any intake of other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. She had no history of peptic ulcer disease or liver disease. On arrival to the hospital, the patient ’s blood pressure was 90/60 mm Hg, with a heart rate of 140 beats/min.

Recurrent embolic strokes due to antiphospholipid syndrome and non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis in a patient with basal cell carcinoma
CONCLUSION: Outside of SLE and antiphospholipid syndrome, NBTE is a rare and underdiagnosed disease associated with thromboembolic events. Adequate anticoagulation is a cornerstone of its treatment. Anticoagulation management during perioperative care and valve surgery deserves specific attention and helps to protect the patient from embolic complications. In the case of stroke and thromboembolic events of unclear cause or suspected NBTE, echocardiography and thrombophilia assessments including an immunological workup are recommended.PMID:37170311 | PMC:PMC10176810 | DOI:10.1186/s13019-023-02266-6

Significant increase in mortality and risk of acute ischemic stroke in infective endocarditis patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage secondary to mycotic aneurysms
Infective Endocarditis (IE) patients are known to have a variety of complications with one of the rarest, but serious being cerebral mycotic aneurysm, which can result in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Using the National In-Patient Sample database, we sought to determine the rate of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and outcomes in IE- patients with and without SAH. In total, we identified 82,844  IE-patients from 2010 to 2016, of which 641 had a concurrent diagnosis of SAH. IE patients with SAH had a more complicated course, higher mortality rate (OR 4.65 CI 95% 3.9–5.5, P

Stroke in Patients With Common Noncancerous Gynecologic Diseases: A Multicenter Study in Japan

Concomitant intra-aortic balloon pump and veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock
Int J Artif Organs. 2023 Apr 26:3913988231170890. doi: 10.1177/03913988231170890. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe aimed to compare the outcomes of ECMO with and without IABP for postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock. The study included 103 patients who needed ECMO for postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock. Patients were grouped according to the use of IABP into ECMO without IABP (n = 43) and ECMO with IABP (n = 60). The study endpoints were hospital complications, successful weaning, and survival. Patients with IABP had lower preoperative ejection fraction (p = 0.002). There was no difference in stroke (p = 0.97), limb ischemic (p ...

Population-based assessment of cardiovascular complications of rheumatic heart disease in Fiji: a record-linkage analysis
Conclusions Our study defines the burden of RHD-attributable morbidity in the general population of Fiji, potentially reflecting the situation in low-income and middle-income countries worldwide. Hospitalisation for an RHD complication is associated with markedly increased risk of death, re-emphasising the importance of effective early prevention.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement for Aortic Valve Infective Endocarditis: A Systematic Review and Call for Action
AbstractWe aimed to systematically analyze the literature on the use of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) to treat active aortic valve infective endocarditis (AV-IE). Surgery is declined in one-third of patients with IE who meet indications because of prohibitive surgical risk. TAVR might be an alternative for selected patients with AV-IE as a bridge-to-surgery or stand-alone therapy. PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane databases were searched (2002 –2022) for studies on TAVR use in active AV-IE. Of 450 identified reports, six met inclusion criteria (all men, mean age 71 ± 12 years, median Society of T...
