Surgical aortic valve replacement may be complicated by severe dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and cardiogenic shock in the postoperative period. We present a patient who developed severe anterior motion following aortic valve and Cox MAZE surgery which necessitated a mitral valve replacement. doi: 10.1111/jocs.12763 (J Card Surg 2016;31:429-431).

Percutaneous Intervention of Aortic Pseudoaneurysm and Severe Bioprosthetic Valve Regurgitation Following a Bentall Procedure.
JACC Case Rep

A 77-year-old man with a history of a Bentall procedure presented with acute decompensated heart failure. Investigations revealed severe bioprosthetic aortic valve regurgitation and a large pseudoaneurysm eroding the sternum. We describe the multimodal imaging and heart team planning to stent the pseudoaneurysm with an endograft followed by transcatheter valve-in-valve implantation.

We describe the case of a 52-year-old man with radiation-induced severe mixed aortic and mitral valve disease, thickening of the aortomitral continuity, mitral annular calcification, and porcelain aorta with limited transcatheter treatment options. By replacing the aorta during circulatory arrest, we demonstrate that it is possible to clamp the ascending aorta to facilitate prosthetic aortic and mitral valve replacement.

Echocardiography is a well-established tool for evaluating bioprosthetic valve performance after transcatheter aortic valve replacement. The presence of higher-than-expected echocardiographic gradients is not an uncommon finding and can be related to different clinical settings. This case series proposes a practical and multiparametric approach to interpreting high residual gradients after transcatheter aortic valve replacement.

Department of Internal Medicine II, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.
Background: Degenerative severe aortic stenosis (AS) is treated by valve replacement to improve outcome. Despite diagnostic advancements, many AS patients are still diagnosed late with advanced heart failure.
Objectives: The aim of the study was to assess multiorgan dysfunction in severe AS using blood biomarkers and their association with quantitative fluid levels and clinical outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
Clonal Hematopoiesis Is Associated With Adverse Clinical Outcomes and Left Ventricular Remodeling in Aortic Stenosis.
JACC Adv
February 2025
Department of Internal Medicine, National Taiwan University Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan.
Background: Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) has been linked to intensified systemic inflammation and represents a novel risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases, including aortic stenosis (AS).
Objectives: This study aimed to assess the clinical impact of CHIP in a cohort of severe AS patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
Methods: We enrolled 110 severe AS patients in this retrospective study.
