Aortic Valve Plasty for Coexistence of Discrete Subvalvular Aortic Stenosis and Quadricuspid Aortic Valve: A Case Report.
Cureus
December 2024
Cardiovascular Surgery, Ayase Heart Hospital, Tokyo, JPN.
Subvalvular aortic stenosis typically manifests at a young age and rarely presents in adulthood. It may cause left ventricular outflow tract stenosis, which requires surgical treatment in severe cases. The coexistence of discrete subvalvular aortic stenosis and quadricuspid aortic valve is a highly unusual finding.

Division of Cardiovascular Surgery, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Background: Continuous retrograde flow across the aortic valve from left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy can result in cusp damage and progressive aortic regurgitation, potentially triggering recurrent heart and multiorgan failure. The management of aortic regurgitation after LVAD implantation has not been well defined.
Methods: This study retrospectively reviewed the investigators' experience with the management of de novo aortic regurgitation requiring intervention in patients with continuous-flow LVAD.
Single-Stage Surgical Approach to Aortoesophageal Fistula After Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair.
Ann Thorac Surg Short Rep
September 2024
Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, China.
Background: The aortoesophageal fistula (AEF) caused by thoracic endovascular aortic repair is a challenging condition. Traditional treatment approaches have been associated with high mortality and morbidity. This study introduces a modified single-stage surgical strategy that aims to optimize outcomes and to reduce the risk of recurrence for AEF.

Vascular Surgery Department, Bonifatius Hospital, Wilhelmstraße 13, 49808 Lingen, Germany.
We document a case of a 75-year-old patient with a history of hypercholesterolemia and hypertension, who underwent endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) for an infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) with common iliac artery ectasia. Despite an initially successful procedure, the patient experienced recurrent episodes of acute limb ischemia in his right leg. Subsequent imaging revealed thrombus formation distal to the stent graft, constituting a potential source of embolization, which warranted a reevaluation of the treatment strategy.

Department of Cardiology and Internal Medicine, School of Medicine, Collegium Medicum, University of Warmia and Mazury, al. Warszawska 30, Olsztyn, 10-900, Poland.
Background: Chest pain is a common reason patients are admitted to the hospital. The most clinically significant cases are those in which the pain is due to an immediate life-threatening condition, such as acute aortic dissection (AAD). A prompt and correct diagnosis is crucial to patient survival.
