Background: Population-based analyses may reduce uncertainty related to referral bias and/or incomplete follow-up.
Objectives: This study analyzed long-term mortality and durability of mitral valve repair in a geographically defined population with clinical and echocardiographic follow-up.
Methods: We used the Rochester Epidemiology Project to identify 153 Olmsted County patients who underwent mitral valve repair for degenerative regurgitation from 1993 to 2018.

Background: Left atrial dissection is a rare and occasionally fatal complication of cardiac surgery and is defined as the creation of a false chamber through a tear in the mitral valve annulus extending into the left atrial wall. Some patients are asymptomatic, while others present with various symptoms, such as chest pain, dyspnea, and even cardiac arrest. Although there is no established management for left atrial dissection, surgery should be considered in patients with hemodynamic disruption.

Objectives: Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) is an alternative for patients with severe degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR). The objective of this study was to compare the outcomes of surgery and TEER in older patients with degenerative MR patients using real life data.
Methods: Consecutives older patients (≥ 65 years-old), with severe symptomatic, degenerative MR requiring surgery or TEER between 2013 and 2023 were included.

Background: Patients with pulmonary atresia and ventricular septal defect (PA/VSD) are prone to progressive aortic dilation. However, there are relatively few reports of progressive development of aortic aneurysm or aortic dissection in adult patients who missed early corrective surgery.
Presentation Of Cases: Case 1: A 38-year-old man with PA/VSD and a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), underwent VSD repair, aortic valve replacement, and PA correction at age 21.

Purpose: Pre-procedural imaging is critical for transcatheter mitral valve repair planning in patients with mitral valve disease. As differences among various measurement techniques for valve evaluation are still poorly understood, we sought to assess the intra- and interobserver agreement of complex measurements derived from a prototype mitral evaluation tool (Siemens) and a commercially available tool (CVI42) using both saddle- and D-shaped mitral annulus techniques.
Materials And Methods: Multiphasic cardiac computed tomography angiography data were loaded into each software.
