Double-orifice mitral valve is a rare congenital anomaly being associated with other cardiac defects and rarely presented in isolation. Valve function can be preserved for long and it is usually an incidental finding. We present an unusual case of double-orifice mitral valve with mitral regurgitation in a middle-aged man associated with the atrial septal defect, highlighting the role of three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography.

Gastrointestinal Complications and Laparotomy after Cardiac Surgery: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Ann Ital Chir
March 2025
Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, EH16 4SA Edinburgh, UK.
Aim: Gastrointestinal (GI) complications following cardiac surgery are infrequent, but associated with high rates of postoperative mortality. The aim of our study was to identify risk factors predisposing patients to GI complications following cardiac surgery and describe the outcomes of patients suffering a GI complication.
Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of 6769 consecutive patients undergoing cardiac surgeries (at least one of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), aortic valve replacement, mitral valve replacement, or surgery on thoracic aorta) at a single Scottish centre between 1 January 2015 and 27 September 2023.

Background: The role of prophylactic concomitant left atrial appendage closure during mitral repair in patients without atrial fibrillation (AF) is not defined.
Objectives: The objective was to compare long-term outcomes of patients who had left atrial appendage closure during mitral repair with those who did not in patients without AF.
Methods: A large national registry was used to identify 38,597 patients undergoing isolated mitral repair from 2010 to 2019.

De Gasperis Cardio Center, Transplant Center, Niguarda Hospital, Milano, Italy; Department of Health Sciences, University of Milano-Bicocca, Monza, Italy.
Background: Patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) have a heightened stroke risk. However, stroke as an endpoint in heart failure trials remains under-reported.
Objectives: The authors sought to define the incidence, characteristics, predictors, modifier treatments, and prognostic impact of stroke in patients with HFrEF who were enrolled in randomized controlled trials (RCTs).
