Objectives
This study investigated differences between transcatheter heart valve (THV) types and regarding debris captured by a cerebral embolic protection system (Claret Medical Sentinel, Santa Rosa, California).Background
Differences of THV types and cerebral injury after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) are not well understood.Methods
A total of 246 patients pooled from 2 prospective studies (SENTINEL [Cerebral Protection in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement] trial, N = 100; SENTINEL-H [Histopathology of Embolic Debris Captured During Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement] trial, N = 146) were included in the analysis. Histopathologic assessment and histomorphometric analyses of debris were compared with THV types. Analyses were differentiated by particle size (≥150, ≥500, and ≥1,000 μm), particle count, total particle area, and maximum of largest dimension. Only commercially available THVs were included: 16% Evolut R (EvR), 15% Lotus, 59% SAPIEN 3 (S3), and 10% SAPIEN XT (XT).Results
Particles were captured in 99% of patients. There was a significantly higher amount of debris related to the vascular bed (valve tissue, arterial wall, calcification) in EvR patients compared with S3 patients; 53% of all patients irrespective of valve type had at least 1 particle ≥1 mm. Larger particles (≥500 and ≥1,000 μm) were significantly more frequent in EvR than XT and S3 patients. Lotus patients with particles ≥1,000 μm were significantly more frequent than in S3 patients. Particle count, total particle area, and maximum of largest dimension were significantly higher in both Lotus and EvR patients compared with S3 and XT.Conclusions
Debris was captured in 99% of patients, of whom 53% had at least 1 particle of debris >1 mm. The number and size of particles captured during a procedure in which EvR or Lotus THV was used were higher and larger than with a Sapien THV. Regardless, embolic debris, including large particles, is universal across valve types and provides mechanistic support for the potential benefit of using cerebral embolic protection in all TAVR procedures. 相似文献3.
Endocarditis caused by Bartonella species is difficult to diagnose and still remains a rare entity. Therefore, a young male patient undergoing aortic valve replacement for culture-negative endocarditis is reported in whom the diagnosis of a Bartonella quintana infection was made with a great delay postoperatively. 相似文献

Purpose of Review
This review aims to summarize data regarding bioprosthetic valve fracture (BVF), a novel technique that involves fracturing the surgical valve sewing ring to allow for further expansion of the transcatheter heart valve in patients undergoing valve in valve transcatheter aortic valve replacement (VIV TAVR).Recent Findings
Bench testing and clinical experience have demonstrated that most, but not all, bioprosthetic surgical valves can be fractured. BVF in patients with small- and intermediate-sized surgical valves results in a lower residual valve gradient and larger final valve effective orifice area as compared with standard VIV TAVR. However, whether patients with larger bioprothetic valves benefit from BVF, and whether the hemodynamic benefits of BVF translate into improved clinical outcomes, is unknown.Summary
BVF improves the hemodynamic results of VIV TAVR in small surgical valves. However, further research is needed to determine whether BVF is beneficial for patients with larger surgical valves, and whether the hemodynamic benefits of BVF result in improved clinical outcomes.6.

BACKGROUND: Aortic valve sclerosis, without stenosis, has been associated with an increased cardiovascular mortality and morbidity due to myocardial infarction. However, it is unclear whether it is a cardiovascular risk factor or a cardiac disease marker. The goal of our study is to evaluate the difference in the prevalence of cardiovascular disease and risk factors among patients with or without aortic sclerosis. METHODS: This observational study compared a group of 142 consecutive subjects with aortic valve sclerosis, assigned as group S, with a group of 101 subjects without aortic sclerosis, assigned as group C. Patients with bicuspid aortic valves and those with antegrade Doppler velocity across aortic valve leaflets exceeding 2.0 m/sec were excluded. RESULTS: Mean ages of groups S and C were 71 +/- 8, and 68.8 +/- 6 years, respectively (P value = not significant). The prevalence of smoking, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, pulse pressure, left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, atrial fibrillation, and stroke was not significantly different between the two groups. However, there was a significantly higher prevalence of left ventricular hypertrophy (P = 0.05), ventricular arrhythmias (P = 0.02), myocardial infarction (P = 0.04), and systolic heart failure (P = 0.04) in aortic sclerosis group. CONCLUSIONS: Aortic sclerosis is associated with a higher prevalence of left ventricular hypertrophy, ventricular arrhythmias, myocardial infarction, and systolic heart failure, while the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors is not different between aortic sclerosis patients and controls. Hence, aortic sclerosis represents a cardiac disease marker useful for early identification of high-risk patients beyond cardiovascular risk factors rate. 相似文献

Background
There is little information concerning infective endocarditis (IE) in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) or mitral valve prolapse (MVP). Currently, IE antibiotic prophylaxis (IEAP) is not recommended for these conditions.Objectives
This study sought to describe the clinical and microbiological features of IE in patients with BAV and MVP and compare them with those of IE patients with and without IEAP indication, to determine the potential benefit of IEAP in these conditions.Methods
This analysis involved 3,208 consecutive IE patients prospectively included in the GAMES (Grupo de Apoyo al Manejo de la Endocarditis infecciosa en España) registry at 31 Spanish hospitals. Patients were classified as high-risk IE with IEAP indication (high-risk group; n = 1,226), low- and moderate-risk IE without IEAP indication (low/moderate-risk group; n = 1,839), and IE with BAV (n = 54) or MVP (n = 89).Results
BAV and MVP patients had a higher incidence of viridans group streptococci IE than did high-risk group and low/moderate-risk group patients (35.2% and 39.3% vs. 12.1% and 15.0%, respectively; all p < 0.01). A similar pattern was seen for IE from suspected odontologic origin (14.8% and 18.0% vs. 5.8% and 6.0%; all p < 0.01). BAV and MVP patients had more intracardiac complications than did low/moderate-risk group (50% and 47.2% vs. 30.6%, both p < 0.01) patients and were similar to high-risk group patients.Conclusions
IE in patients with BAV and MVP have higher rates of viridans group streptococci IE and IE from suspected odontologic origin than in other IE patients, with a clinical profile similar to that of high-risk IE patients. Our findings suggest that BAV and MVP should be classified as high-risk IE conditions and the case for IEAP should be reconsidered. 相似文献9.

Although the results of the early TAVI experience are promising, longer-term follow-up is necessary before the procedure can be extended to lowerrisk patients. Many issues are not yet resolved, including the long-term effects of paravalvular leaks (which occur in most TAVI patients), the true stroke rate in TAVI patients (which is probably in the range of 5% to 6%), and the need for permanent pacemaker implantation (which ranges from 5% to 40% in TAVI patients, depending upon the device used). As the procedure is extended into the lower-risk population, these issues will assume greater import than they have in the population currently in treatment—very elderly, high-risk patients with limited life expectancy. As in the coronary-revascularization paradigm of percutaneous coronary intervention versus coronary artery bypass grafting, there will be increasing adoption of the transcatheter approach. Just as the rumors of the demise of surgical bypass were premature, conventional AVR will continue to be the predominant technique for the treatment of aortic stenosis during at least the next decade. Although the percentage of patients treated by a transcatheter approach will continue to increase, regulatory and reimbursement factors are likely to be the primary determinants of the rate of adoption. 相似文献

From January 1964 until February 1985, we performed 8,370 prosthetic valve procedures; this represents 54.32% of our total surgical load. Approximately 93% of the replacements were for rheumatic valve disease; the rest were for ischemic, myxomatous, degenerative, congenital, and traumatic heart disease. All cases were between New York Heart Association (NYHA) Classes II and IV; almost all patients had heart catheterizations before surgery. During the last 6 years, all patients had echocardiograms before undergoing heart catheterization. 相似文献

Benign ileocecal valve hypertrophy is a rare cause for intestinal obstruction. We describe a 51-year-old female with clinical
and imaging presentation of chronic small-bowel obstruction. The patient was operated on, and a limited thickening of the
ileocecal bowel wall causing intestinal obstruction was found. A right hemicolectomy was performed. On microscopic examination,
severe fibrosis with hypertrophied nerves was found without any additional findings of malignancy or inflammation. Review
of the relevant literature is presented. 相似文献

Objectives
The purpose of this study was to review the institutional practice of surveillance transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) for diagnosing early prosthetic valve dysfunction (PVD).Background
Bioprosthetic valve thrombosis (BPVT) is an important cause of PVD, and guidelines do not recommend routine TTE during the first 5 years after valve implantation.Methods
The authors performed a retrospective case-control study of all suspected (imaging diagnosis) or confirmed (histopathological diagnosis) cases of BPVT from January 1997 through December 2016. Patients were matched 1:2 (age, sex, prosthesis position) to patients whose prostheses were explanted because of structural failure (SF). PVD was defined as a 50% increase above baseline gradient at valve implantation and classified as early (≤5 years) or late (>5 years) after implantation.Results
There were 94 BPVT (51 suspected, 43 confirmed) and 188 SF cases; patient age 61 ± 9 years; men 61 (65%). The prosthesis positions were aortic 56%; mitral 26%; tricuspid 15%; and pulmonary 3%. Early PVD was more common in the BPVT versus SF group: 83 of 94 (88%) versus 20 of 188 (11%) (p < 0.001). Time from implantation to PVD was shorter for BPVT than SF: 26 months (interquartile range [IQR]: 12 to 43 months) versus 74 months (IQR: 48 to 102 months) (p < 0.001). At the initial PVD diagnosis, 81% of BPVT and 90% of SF patients were asymptomatic. However, BPVT patients had rapid symptomatic deterioration, requiring intervention sooner after PVD diagnosis: 6 months (IQR: 4 to 7 months) versus 51 months (IQR: 22 to 55 months) (p < 0.001).Conclusions
Most patients with PVD due to BPVT were asymptomatic at initial diagnosis, which was made based on routine surveillance TTE, often performed before 5 years. BPVT, an acute disease process, requires timely diagnosis because patient conditions rapidly deteriorate. Further studies are needed to determine whether routine surveillance TTE should be considered for patients with bioprosthetic valves to identify pre-symptomatic features of BPVT in order to provide effective, appropriate therapy. 相似文献17.

ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to compare outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in patients with pure aortic stenosis (AS) (i.e., no or trivial associated aortic regurgitation [AR]) with those in patients with AS and mild or more severe AR (i.e., mixed aortic valve disease [MAVD]).BackgroundTAVR is indicated in treating patients with severe AS. Limited data exist regarding the outcomes of TAVR in patients with MAVD.MethodsA total of 1,133 patients who underwent TAVR between January 2014 and December 2017 were included. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. The comparison was adjusted to account for post-TAVR AR development in both groups. The secondary outcomes included composite endpoints of early safety and clinical efficacy as specified in the Valve Academic Research Consortium-2 criteria. Variables were compared using Mann-Whitney, chi-square, and Fisher exact tests, while Kaplan-Meier analyses were used to compare survival.ResultsA total of 688 patients (61%) had MAVD (median age 83 years , 43% women). Among these, 17% developed mild, 2% moderate, and <1% severe post-TAVR AR. Overall, patients with MAVD had better survival compared with patients with pure AS (p = 0.03). Among patients who developed post-TAVR AR, those in the MAVD group had better survival (p = 0.04). In contrast, in patients who did not develop post-TAVR AR, pre-TAVR AR did not improve survival (p = 0.11).ConclusionsPatients with MAVD who underwent TAVR had better survival compared with patients with pure AS. This is explained by the better survival of patients with MAVD who developed post-TAVR AR, likely due to left ventricular adaptation to AR. 相似文献

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) has evolved as a strategy for managing aortic stenosis in a growing proportion of patients considered at high or intermediate surgical risk. Though early data has demonstrated excellent durability and life span of transcatheter valves up to five years, there is an absence of case based studies in the literature regarding transcatheter valve failure after TAVR, and outcomes of subsequent redo TAVR Valve-in-Valve (VIV) procedures. We report here a successful case of emergent, catheter-based treatment for severe, highly symptomatic valve in valve restenosis of a 5 year old Sapien valve. 相似文献
