Department of Cardiology, Inselspital, Bern University Hospital, University of Bern, Bern, Switzerland.
Anomalous aortic origin of coronary artery can lead to ischemia. Due to the limitations of invasive catheterization dobutamine stress testing, an alternative noninvasive approach is desired. A 65-year-old woman with atypical chest pain was referred for coronary computed tomography angiography.

Our case report characterizes a rare presentation of mid-ventricular Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) in a patient with suspected myocarditis as an underlying cause. Mid-ventricular TTC is a rare variant of TTC presenting with overlapping symptoms and physical exam findings of acute coronary syndrome, which often leads to misdiagnosis as myocardial infarction. Our case is of a 77-year-old female patient with a history of hyperlipidemia, right breast ductal carcinoma in situ, and diverticular disease who presented to the emergency department for evaluation of chest pain radiating to the jaw with associated nausea and vomiting.

Department of Internal Medicine, University of Colorado Hospital, 12631 E 17thAvenue, Aurora, CO, 80045, USA.
Background: Understanding venous congestion is critical to the management of many illnesses, but assessing volume status can be challenging. The current gold standard for volume status assessment of right heart catheterization (RHC) is invasive, costly, and often unavailable. Venous Excess Ultrasound Score (VExUS) is a novel ultrasound protocol for to assessment of venous congestion using the inferior vena cava, hepatic, portal and renal veins.

Urology Department, Cochin Hospital, Paris, 75000, France.
Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HoLEP in patients aged > 85 years with indwelling catheter (IDC).
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed our bicentric HoLEP database to identify consecutive patients with IDC and trial without catheter (TWOC) failure who underwent surgery between June 2012 and April 2020. Our primary focus was on the population over 85 years of age; Patients under 70 years of age were used as controls.
Purse string suture for rapid access hemostasis after removal of large-caliber femoral venous delivery sheaths in children with atrial septal defects.
BMC Cardiovasc Disord

Heart Center, Women and Children's Hospital, Qingdao University, 6 Tongfu Road, Qingdao, 266034, Shandong, China.
Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of purse-string sutures (PSS) compared with manual compression for access hemostasis in children with atrial septal defects (ASDs) after large-caliber venous delivery sheaths removal.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective clinical data review of 271 children with ASDs who underwent transcatheter device closure through large-caliber venous delivery sheaths (≥ 8 Fr) at our institution from January 2018 to January 2023. The PSS group (n = 144) was compared to the control group (n = 127), which underwent manual compression for femoral venous hemostasis after sheath removal, focusing on hemostatic time, limb braking time, bed rest time, hospital stay, and vascular access complications.
