Hypoplastic Posterior Leaflet Mitral Valve Associated with Bicuspid Aortic Valve.

• Hypoplasia of the MV posterior leaflet is a rare congenital anomaly. • Differential diagnosis includes other anomalies of the mitral apparatus. • TTE and TEE are cornerstones for proper preoperative planning.

Non-valvular infective endocarditis associated with central venous catheter bloodstream infection: a case report.

Non-valvular Infective endocarditis (IE) is exceedingly rare; however, its incidence has risen in tandem with the increased usage of intracardiac devices and the growing prevalence of risk factors associated with IE. We present a clinical case involving an 18-year-old patient with IE occurring at an atypical location, concomitant with central venous catheter bloodstream infection. The patient underwent targeted antibiotic therapy but ultimately required surgical resection of the vegetation due to multiple risk factors associated with a poor prognosis.

Successful management of Ellis III coronary perforation and complex bifurcation lesion of the right coronary artery in a patient with high-risk coronary anatomy. A case report.

Complex coronary lesions represent challenging findings for percutaneous coronary intervention and potentially lead to complications during their approach. We present the case of a patient with decompensated heart failure of ischemic origin who presented multiple complex lesions on coronary angiography. The initial approach to the marginal artery was complicated by a severe coronary perforation that was satisfactorily resolved and in the second moment, a bifurcation lesion of the right coronary artery was successfully treated using the inverted Culotte technique.

Williams-Beuren syndrome associated with hammock mitral valve: First case report.

Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) is a multisystem congenital disorder, whose cardiovascular defects are the leading cause of death. We present the case of a 38-year-old man with features of heart failure. The imaging studies showed a typical supravalvular aortic stenosis and a hammock mitral valve, this last, being a rare congenital disease.

[Ablation of cardiac arrhythmias using a three-dimensional electro-anatomical mapping system in the Instituto Nacional Cardiovascular - INCOR].

Objective: To describe the initial experience in ablation of cardiac arrhythmias using 3D mapping at the Instituto Nacional Cardiovascular INCOR (Lima, Peru).

Methods: A retrospective descriptive study was carried out. During February 2020, data was collected from the medical records of all patients in whom ablation was performed using 3D mapping from July 2017 to December 2019.
