Combining Minimally Invasive Direct Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting With Transapical Aortic Valve Implantation—the Next Level Heart Team Approach

Combining Minimally Invasive Direct Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting With Transapical Aortic Valve Implantation—the Next Level Heart Team Approach

Source : https://www.mdpi.com/2077-0383/12/21/6890

We present the results of a combined approach for transapical aortic valve replacement and minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting (taTAVI-MIDCAB) in patients with combined aortic stenosis and coronary artery...

Simultaneous surgical coronary revascularization and interventional valve implantation in the setting of a hostile femoral and coronary axis appears to be safe and beneficial.

In this German study, primarily elevated postprocedural LVEDP was a common finding in patients who underwent TAVR and correlated with higher mortality during the 5-year observation period.

Subvalvular Aortic Stenosis: Learning From Human and Canine Clinical Research

Subvalvular Aortic Stenosis: Learning From Human and Canine Clinical Research

Subvalvular aortic stenosis (SAS) is the most common congenital heart disease (CHD) in dogs and is also prevalent in human children.

Historical leaps in SAS research support a continued translational approach as the most promising method for identifying a treatment option to prevent disease progression or permanently remove the fibrous ridge.

Plasma N-Terminal Pro-B-Type Natriuretic Peptide in the Detection of Aortic Valve Stenosis

Plasma N-Terminal Pro-B-Type Natriuretic Peptide in the Detection of Aortic Valve Stenosis

NT-proBNP was sensitive to identify AS and useful to rule out AS in patients with systolic murmur in the left ventricular outflow tract provided the patient does not have coexisting...

After adjusting for confounding factors, plasma NT-proBNP remained significantly higher in patients with AS compared with patients with ASc (P<0.002) and controls (P<0.0001).
