Transcatheter mitral valve implantation in severe mitral annular calcification: a case report.
Eur Heart J Case Rep
January 2025
HerzZentrum Hirslanden, 8032 Zurich, Switzerland.
Background: Mitral annular calcification (MAC) is characterized by severe calcification of mitral annulus and might be associated with both mitral regurgitation and stenosis. It is technically challenging for both surgical and percutaneous approach and is burdened by high mortality.
Case Summary: The present case report describes a complex case of mitral steno-insufficiency (baseline transvalvular gradient = 5 mmHg, effective regurgitant orifice area 0.
Temporary microaxial transvalvular left ventricular assist device for post-myocardial infarction ventricular septal rupture: Bridging a paradigm shift.
JTCVS Tech
December 2024
Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Kaufman Center for Heart Failure Treatment and Recovery, Heart, Vascular and Thoracic Institute, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio.
Objective: To characterize the clinical courses and outcomes of patients presenting with post-myocardial infarction (MI) ventricular septal rupture (VSR) receiving temporary microaxial transvalvular left ventricular assist device (tVAD) support.
Methods: Between December 2019 and July 2023, 10 consecutive patients presented with a post-MI VSR. All 10 patients received a tVAD.
Effect of long-term rehabilitation on takotsubo syndrome-induced severe intensive care unit-acquired weakness: a case report.
J Phys Ther Sci
November 2024
Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Yokohama City University Graduate School of Medicine, Japan.
[Purpose] To examine the effectiveness of acute and outpatient cardiac rehabilitation for severe intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired weakness. [Participant and Methods] A 79-year-old woman, diagnosed with takotsubo syndrome. A percutaneous catheter-based transvalvular left ventricular assist device was used from day 2 to day 8, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation from day 3 to day 9, and inotropic support from day 1 to day 15.

Article Synopsis
- A study evaluated the long-term clinical outcomes of percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty (PBMV) in 71 patients with moderate to severe mitral stenosis, all guided by echocardiography at a Chinese hospital from 2016 to 2022.* -
- The procedure had a success rate of 98.6%, with significant improvements in mitral valve function, reflected by a decrease in the pressure gradient and an increase in valve area postoperatively.* -
- During an average follow-up of nearly 50 months, most patients had favorable outcomes, though a few experienced new mild to moderate mitral regurgitation and some required further surgical intervention.*
Performance of the Mammoth Balloon Catheter in Patients with Severe Aortic Valve Stenosis Undergoing Percutaneous Treatment.
J Clin Med
October 2024
U.O. Cardiologia Ospedaliera, IRCCS Ospedale Galeazzi Sant'Ambrogio, 20157 Milan, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- - Balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) is a procedure used for patients with severe aortic valve stenosis, either as preparation for trans-catheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) or alone in certain cases; the study focused on the newly available Mammoth balloon catheter (BC) used in this context.
- - A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients treated with the Mammoth BC at a hospital in Milan, where technical success was defined by the ability to successfully deploy and inflate the catheter without significant complications like injury or stroke.
- - The results showed a 100% technical success rate in 121 procedures with no complications attributed to the Mammoth BC; however, some patients in the stand-alone group
