Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is sometimes associated with severe complications due to the unpredictability of such closed-chest procedures. Reported complications include atrioventricular blocks, vascular complications, aortic root rupture, aorto-right ventricular fistulas, and aortic dissections. Herein is presented the case of an 88-year-old female with a late atrioventricular septal defect that developed after TAVI.

Significance of northwest axis on neonatal electrocardiograms.
Cardiol Young
January 2025
Division of Cardiology, Children's Hospital at Montefiore, Bronx, NY, USA.
Purpose: Northwest axis on an electrocardiogram is conventionally thought to be associated with CHD, but there is a paucity of data regarding the types and incidence of CHD associated with this finding. The purpose of this study was to report the types and incidence of CHD found at our institution to determine the efficacy of electrocardiograms as a screening test in infants.
Methods: Retrospective, single-centre study of all infants ≤ 60 days of age who underwent a first-time electrocardiogram from 2015 to 2021.
Coexistence of cardiac sarcoidosis and arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy-associated genetic variants: a multicentre case-control study.

Background: Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterised by non-caseating granulomas, while arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is a genetic condition mainly affecting desmosomal proteins. The coexistence of CS and genetic variants associated with ACM is not well understood, creating challenges in diagnosis and management. This study aimed to describe the clinical, imaging and genetic features of patients with both conditions.

Division of Cardiology, Internal Medicine III, Hamamatsu University School of Medicine, Hamamatsu, Shizuoka 431-3192, Japan.
Background: Transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis is associated with various arrhythmias, including atrioventricular block. Despite this correlation, established treatments for transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis-associated arrhythmias are lacking. Left bundle branch area pacing is a promising physiological pacing technique.

Division of Pediatric Cardiology, Department of Pediatric, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Airlangga, Surabaya, Indonesia.
Congenital heart disease (CHD) represents nearly one-third of congenital birth defects annually, with ventricular septal defect (VSD) being the most common type. The aim of this study was to explore the role of specific GATA binding protein 6 gene () mutations as a potential etiological factor in the development of VSD through an in silico approach. Data were collected from the human gene databases: DisGeNET and GeneCards, with protein-protein interaction networks constructed via STRING and Cytoscape.
