The incidences of hip fracture and aortic valve stenosis are increasing in the aging population. Operative repair for hip fracture contributes to excellent clinical results. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation, which does not require cardiopulmonary bypass, represents a new era for the treatment of aortic valve stenosis. We herein describe a patient with both hip fracture and severe aortic valve stenosis. A 93-year-old woman underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation for the valve stenosis immediately followed by open repair surgery for the fracture. She fully recovered without heart failure during the postoperative rehabilitation period. The performance of concomitant surgeries for hip fracture and aortic valve stenosis might increase in the future.

Aim: This study was performed to evaluate the association between left atrial (LA) stiffness and outcomes in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).

Methods And Results: This study involved 279 patients with aortic stenosis (AS) who underwent TAVI at Kumamoto University Hospital between 2015 and 2023. During a median follow-up of 468 days (interquartile range: 258-825 days), 42 deaths occurred.

Background: Repair of the regurgitant bicuspid aortic valve is an attractive alternative to valve replacement. Although good long-term outcomes have been reported, postoperative aortic stenosis remains a major late cause of repair failure in bicuspid aortic valves. Sinus plication is effective for creating a more symmetrical commissural angle, leading to a decrease in the mean transvalvular pressure gradient.

Background: Transcatheter closure of percutaneous paravalvular leak (PVL) is a technically challenging procedure, especially after surgical mechanical valve replacements (SMVR), as the risk of interference with the prosthetic valve discs and the complex interventional techniques required for mitral PVL closure. Our study was designed to review the results with transcatheter closure of PVL after SMVR.

Methods: From January 2018 through December 2023, a total of 64 patients with PVL after SMVR underwent transcatheter closure with the help of preoperative 3-dimensional printing model and simulator for image evaluation.
