Transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients with severe aortic stenosis and small aortic annulus.
OBJECTIVES Valve hemodynamics and clinical outcomes among patients with a small aortic annulus who underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) were examined. BACKGROUND The presence of a small aortic annulus may complicate the surgical management of patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS). TAVI is an alternative to aortic valve replacement (AVR) in high-risk patients, but few d...
متن کاملDefining the enigmatic annulus of the aortic valve.
In the current issue of the Journal, Contino et al. [1] present a detailed investigation of the geometry of the components of the aortic root. Their discussion reminds me of an article we published more than 30 years ago, in which we commented on the debate regarding the definition of double outlet right ventricle, arguing that some investigators offered a ‘two steps forward and one step back’ ...

متن کاملANTIPHOSPHOLIPID ANTIBODY SYNDROME-A CASE OF AORTIC VALVE INSUFFICIENCY
A 31 year old woman was hospitalized for evaluation of aortic valve insufficiency and her present cardiac status. Clinical and paraclinical findings strongly suggested the presence of a collagen vascular inflammatory processprecisely, the antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS), with systemic lupus erythematosus as the underlying disease.
متن کاملLooking for the native annulus after transcatheter aortic valve replacement?
The main finding of the authors is that low implantation depth is associated with clinically significant new conduction disturbances and permanent pacemaker implantation. Although this result was previously reported by our team (2), the authors should be congratulated because the statistical power of their study is much better than ours (89 vs. 34 patients). However, the methodology for measuri...
