Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as an accepted indication for non-operable patients with severe symptomatic native aortic valve stenosis (AS) and as a reasonable alternative for high-risk surgical ...

OBJECTIVE: Hydrodynamic evaluation of the transcatheter valve implantation in aortic bioprosthesis (valve-in-valve) and in sets of bioprosthesis with a transcatheter valve previously implanted (valve-in-valve-in-valve or ...

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement remains challenge in patients with ball-cage-type mechanical valve in mitral position. Potential under-expansion of the percutaneous valve and interaction between the mitral ballcage ...

Heyde syndrome manifests as aortic stenosis associated with gastrointestinal bleeding. We describe the case of a 64-year-old man who came to the emergency room due to acute heart failure and intermittent gastrointestinal ...

Background- Mitral valve repair is considered better than mitral valve replacement for degenerative mitral regurgitation. Aim To evaluate late clinical results of;mitral valve repair as compared to mitral valve replacement ...

Aims: The aim of this study was to test the feasibility of transcatheter mitral valve implantation of the NaviGate device in acute and chronic preclinical models. Methods and results: We evaluated NaviGate valved stent ...

Reintervention of a mitral degenerated bioprosthesis has a high surgical risk, especially in elderly patients with multiple comorbidities. We report a 74 years old female with two previous cardiac surgical procedures and ...
