Tetralogy of Fallot with aortic stenosis is an extremely rare entity which bears some morphological similarities with the common arterial trunk. Through two illustrative cases of TOF with aortic stenosis we describe the shared anatomical peculiarities of the two anomalies with a review of the possible genetic and developmental factors responsible for the association.

Ventricular-Arterial Coupling: Changes with aging and implications across cardiovascular conditions.
Blood Press
January 2025
Jagiellonian University Medical College, 1st Department of Cardiology, Interventional Electrocardiology and Arterial Hypertension, Kraków, Poland.
Purpose: Ventricular-arterial coupling (VAC) is a crucial concept in cardiovascular physiology, representing the dynamic interaction between the left ventricle and the arterial system. This comprehensive literature review explores the changes in VAC with aging and various cardiovascular diseases (CVDs).
Materials And Methods: This literature review covers studies on changes in VAC with age and common CVDs such as arterial hypertension, atrial fibrillation, heart failure with preserved and reduced ejection fraction and aortic stenosis.
Early and Late Outcomes of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Prior Chest Radiation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

January 2025
Hackensack University Medical Center, Hackensack, New Jersey, USA.
Background: Patients with prior history of chest or mediastinal radiation are deemed high risk for surgical AVR. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as a promising alternative for these patients, however, this patient population was underrepresented in prior TAVR trials.
Aims: To compare the outcomes of TAVR in patients with versus without a history of prior chest or mediastinal radiation.

Some patients with aortic stenosis may require multiple valve interventions in their lifetime, and choosing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) as the initial intervention may be appealing to many. If their transcatheter heart valve degenerates later in life, most will hope to undergo redo-TAVR. However, if redo-TAVR is not feasible, some may have to undergo surgical explantation of their transcatheter heart valve (TAVR-explant).

Background: Aortic stenosis (AS) remains a prevalent and serious global health concern, exacerbated by an aging population worldwide. This valvular disease, when symptomatic and without appropriate intervention, severe AS can drastically reduce life expectancy. In our systematic review and -analysis, we aim to synthesize available evidence to guide clinical decision-making by comparing the performance of TAVR and SAVR, specifically in patients with severe AS and a small aortic annulus.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFSevere aortic valve stenosis poses a significant risk for the aging population, often escalating from mild symptoms to life-threatening heart failure and sudden death. Without timely intervention, this condition can lead to disastrous outcomes. The advent of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has gained popularity, emerging as an effective alternative for managing severe aortic stenosis (AS) in high-risk patients experiencing deterioration of previously implanted bioprosthetic surgical aortic valves (SAV), which introduces complex challenges such as device compatibility and anatomical considerations.
