Significance of the learning curve in left atrial appendage occlusion with two different devices
Conclusions: Complications associated with LAA occlusion cluster early in the periprocedural period and significantly decrease in frequency with operator experience. Initial experience gained with one of device may improve outcome with use of alternative LAA occlusion devices. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Successful closure of residual leak following LARIAT procedure in a patient with high risk of stroke and hemorrhage.
Abstract Percutaneous left atrial appendage suture ligation with the LARIAT® device (Sentre HEART, Redwood City, California) was successfully performed on an 84‐year‐old woman with non‐valvular atrial fibrillation who developed intracranial hemorrhage on warfarin. However, a large gap developed at follow‐up precluding warfarin cessation. To the best of our knowledge, this case report represents the first description of the use of a Gore® Helex® Septal Occluder (W. L. Gore and Associates, Newark, Delaware) as a novel Removed: and effectiveapproach to close a gap following percutaneous LAA suture ligation. © 2013...

Percutaneous PFO closure for paradoxical stroke in 8‐kg twins
We present two cases of PFO closures in identical 8 kg twin boys with Hurler’s syndrome who had central lines for planned bone marrow transplants, with embolic stroke in one. We discuss the treatment options as well as the special challenges based on the patients’ age, size, and diagnoses. We also discuss the technical aspects and safety of percutaneous PFO closure. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The management of patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention with stent implantation
Current recommendations on the management of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention with stent (PCI‐S) essentially derive from small, single‐center, retrospective datasets. To obtain larger and better quality data, we carried out the prospective, multicenter Atrial Fibrillation undergoing Coronary Artery Stenting (AFCAS) study. Therefore, consecutive patients with history of or ongoing AF undergoing PCI‐S were enrolled, and occurrence of adverse ischemic and bleeding events recorded during 12 months follow‐up. In this article, we report the in‐hospital observations. O...

Impact of advanced age on the safety and effectiveness of paclitaxel‐eluting stent implantation in patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary angioplasty
ConclusionsFor STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI, the implantation of PES as compared with BMS reduced ischemic TVR, and this effect was independent of age. [NCT00433966]. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Five‐year clinical follow‐up of a randomized comparison of a polymer‐free sirolimus‐eluting stent versus a polymer‐based paclitaxel‐eluting stent in patients with diabetes mellitus (LIPSIA Yukon trial)
Conclusion At 5 years of follow‐up, clinical outcome was similar between the polymer‐free sirolimus‐eluting Yukon Choice stent and the polymer‐based paclitaxel‐eluting Taxus Liberté stent. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A meta‐analysis of transcatheter closure of patent foramen ovale versus medical therapy for prevention of recurrent thromboembolic events in patients with cryptogenic cerebrovascular events
ConclusionIn this meta‐analysis of contemporary RCTs, successful transcatheter closure of PFO might be more effective than medical therapy alone for the prevention of recurrent thromboembolic events. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Comparative effectiveness of drug‐eluting stents on long‐term outcomes in elderly patients treated for in‐stent restenosis: A report from the national cardiovascular data registry
Conclusions: There was lower mortality and reduced risk for MI, revascularization, and stroke, but a similar rate of bleeding with DES compared to other modalities. Our results indicate that DES use is a comparatively effective strategy to treat elderly patients with ISR. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Carotid artery stenting according to the “tailored CAS” algorithm performed in the very elderly patients: The thirty day outcome
ConclusionsSymptomatic elderly is a group of highest CAS risk and the use of “tailored CAS” algorithm does not equalize CAS risk in this patients' group. “Tailored CAS” remains a safe procedure for asymptomatic elderly as well as symptomatic and asymptomatic young patients.
