Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of cardiovascular deaths worldwide. It is becoming a major concern in developing countries, partly due to the adoption of Western lifestyles. It affects young adults as well as older patients over 45 years of age. In this report, we present a case of cardiogenic shock related to myocardial infarction in a young adult. He completed cardiac rehabilitation after the surgery. The outcome was favourable at the six-month follow up.

Background: Performing a left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) or catheter ablation with left-sided intracardiac thrombus is considered very-high risk for periinterventional stroke. Cerebral embolic protection (CEP) devices are designed to prevent cardioembolic stroke and have been widely studied in TAVR procedures. However, their role in LAAO and catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) or in pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) with cardiac thrombus present remains unknown.

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is an important therapeutic modality for atrial fibrillation (AF), widely utilized in clinical practice due to its safety and significant efficacy. However, post-procedural complications may arise, influenced by anatomical positioning and the intensity of ablation energy, with atrioesophageal fistula (AEF) being particularly rare yet severe. This case report describes a unique instance of a patient developing AEF following AF ablation, accompanied by ischemic stroke and myocardial infarction.

Background: Breast cancer patients are at risk of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) and protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) due to chemoradiation effects or cancer itself. There are no existing studies on the impact of PEM on breast cancer patients hospitalized for ADHF. This study aims to evaluate the effects of PEM on breast cancer patients admitted for ADHF.

Severe cardiovascular involvement is associated with mortality in multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). This study aimed to test a previously published cardiogenic shock risk score at diagnosis of MIS-C and build a new screening tool in a larger pediatric cohort. The first score published in a single-center cohort (age > 8 years, time to diagnosis ≥ 6 days, and NT-proBNP at diagnosis ≥ 11.

Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics and natural history of pediatric patients with a diagnosis of vascular ring.
Method: We retrospectively studied the records of 110 patients of pediatric age, from January 2014 to December 2022, with the following variables: age, clinical manifestations, associated cardiac lesions, diagnostic method and surgical approach.
Results: Of the total, 60 (55%) were female and 50 (45%) were male.
