Clinical implications for diffusion‐weighted MRI brain lesions associated with transcatheter aortic valve replacement
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasingly used to treat patients with aortic stenosis deemed high or extreme surgical risk candidates. Despite improved survival and quality of life following the procedure, TAVR is not without its complications. Stroke is a major source of morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing the procedure, with rates similar to and often higher than those associated with surgery. Most studies show a consistent link between TAVR and embolic lesions visualized on diffusion‐weighted magnetic resonance imaging. The question of whether these lesions lead to long‐term cognitive ...

Long‐term results of primary stenting for subclavian artery disease
ConclusionsEVT for SCA disease is an effective treatment with regard to initial success rate, clinical efficacy, and long‐term primary patency. This minimally invasive procedure is appropriate as the treatment of first choice for proximal subclavian arterial obstructive disease. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation without balloon pre‐dilation: A single‐center pilot experience
Conclusions: These results suggest that direct CoreValve implantation in patients with severe aortic stenosis is feasible and may lead to hemodynamic and clinical improvement in patients who are poor candidates for aortic valve surgery, pending confirmation in larger series with longer follow‐up. © 2013 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Late MitraClip procedure after left atrial appendage occlusion
We report the first human case of percutaneous edge‐to‐edge mitral valve repair using MitraClip System (Abbott Vascular, Abbott Park, IL) in a patient, who previously underwent left atrial appendage closure with PLAATO™ System (ev3. Inc., Plymouth, MN). The procedure was successfully performed using the standard MitraClip technique, in the catheterization laboratory, with transesophageal echocardiographic and fluoroscopic guidance. We showed that a double percutaneous procedure for stroke prevention and mitral regurgitation treatment might be a valid approach in selected patients ineligible for chronic anticoagulatio...

Late MitraClip procedure after left atrial appendage occlusion: Indication and procedure description
We report the first human case of percutaneous edge‐to‐edge mitral valve repair using MitraClip System (Abbott Vascular, Abbott Park, IL, USA) in a patient previously undergone left atrial appendage closure with PLAATOTM System (ev3.

The procedure was successfully performed using the standard MitraClip technique, in the catheterization laboratory, with transesophageal echocardiographic and fluoroscopic guidance.

Complications after transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement with a balloon‐expandable prosthesis: The importance of preventative measures and contingency planning
Abstract
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with balloon‐expandable Edwards‐SAPIEN valve was superior to standard therapy in inoperable patients and non‐inferior to surgical aortic valve replacement in high surgical‐risk, but operable patients, with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis in the randomized controlled PARTNER trial. Since the first case of TAVR with a balloon‐expandable valve in 2002, several groups have reported their experience with balloon‐expandable valves with high‐procedural success. In the United States, the balloon‐expandable Edwards‐SAPIEN valve is the only transcatheter hea...

Amplatzer left atrial appendage occlusion: Single center 10‐year experience
ConclusionLAA closure may be a good alternative to oral anticoagulation. This hypothesis needs to be tested in a randomized clinical trial to ensure that all potential biases of this observational study are accounted for. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

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: The HORIZONS‐AMI trial
Conclusions: For 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‐Liss, Inc.
