LANDMARK comparison of early outcomes of newer-generation Myval transcatheter heart valve series with contemporary valves (Sapien and Evolut) in real-world individuals with severe symptomatic native aortic stenosis: a randomised non-inferiority trial

Lancet; 403 (10445), 2024
BACKGROUND Transcatheter aortic valve implantation is an established, guideline-endorsed treatment for severe aortic stenosis. Precise sizing of the balloon-expandable Myval transcatheter heart valve (THV) series with the aortic annulus is facilitated by increasing its diameter in 1•5 mm increments, co...

Relato de caso – a importância do ecocardiograma na cardiopatia carcinoide
Case report – the importance of echocardiography in carcinoid heart disease

INTRODUÇÃO: A síndrome carcinoide (SC) é uma manifestação paraneoplásica de um tumor neuroendócrino. Há comprometimento cardíaco em 50% das SC, sendo chamada de cardiopatia carcinoide (CC).A fisiopatologia consiste em secreção de mediadores neuroendócrinos pelo tumor, principalmente serotoni...

Incidence, predictors, and prognostic impact of new permanent pacemaker implantation after TAVR with self-expanding valves

OBJECTIVES: The authors sought to evaluate the incidence, predictors, and outcomes of new permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with contemporary self-expanding valves (SEV). BACKGROUND: Need for PPI is frequent post-TAVR, but conflicting data exist on...
