Left ventricular rupture is an infrequent but potentially fatal complication of mitral valve replacement. Here, we report a case of large posterior mid-ventricular rupture following mitral valve replacement, which was successfully treated by a sandwich style repair and autotransplantation.

Reintervention after aortic root replacement with allograft, xenograft, and stented bioprosthetic valves.

Background: There has been a significant increase in the utilization of non-mechanical valves in the aortic position over time. However, details in reinterventions after aortic root replacement (ARR) with non-mechanical prosthesis were limited in the literature, despite the potential importance of reinterventions in the lifetime management of aortic valve disease.
Methods: This is a single-center retrospective study, identifying all patients who underwent ARR with allograft, xenografts, and stented bioprosthetic valved conduit from 2010 to 2020.

Background: Left ventricular obstruction (LVO) is an infrequent complication following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) that can lead to severe hemodynamic decompensation. Previous studies have analyzed the pathophysiology of this clinical entity; however, little is known about the anatomical characteristics as assessed by computational tomography (CT) of patients at risk.
Methods: Data from 349 patients were retrospectively analyzed from a single center registry of patients undergoing TAVR at San Raffaele Hospital, Milan, Italy, between January 2020 and December 2021.

Background: A subset of patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP), a highly heritable condition, experience sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) or sudden cardiac death (SCD). However, the inheritance of phenotypic imaging features of arrhythmic MVP remains unknown.
Methods: We recruited 23 MVP probands, including 9 with SCA/SCD and 14 with frequent/complex ventricular ectopy.

With the emergence of less invasive transcatheter valvular therapies, there remains a limited understanding of the feasibility and durability of these approaches in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta and whether they can offer a suitable alternative to conventional surgery. In this context, and with a focus on mitral repair, we report on a case of mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair in a patient with osteogenesis imperfecta and conduct a comprehensive review of the characteristics and outcomes of reported osteogenesis imperfecta cases undergoing surgical or transcatheter mitral repair. Given the high burden of complications of surgery in this population, transcatheter mitral repair could potentially serve as a suitable alternative to conventional surgery in this challenging population.
