ANOMALOUS CIRCUMFLEX CORONARY ARTERY AND HEREDITARY HEMORRHAGIC TELANGIECTASIA: THE PERFECT INGREDIENTS FOR A STENT THROMBOSIS
Anno:
2025
Anomalous circumflex coronary artery (ACCA) is a rare condition where the origin of the left circumflex artery (LCx) is in the right sinus of Valsava (RSV) or in the proximal right coronary artery (RCA).

AN INSIDIOUS CASE OF DYSPNEA: THE CHALLENGE OF EXPLORING A TUNNEL
Anno:
2025
First described in the mid-20th century, platypnea-orthodeoxia syndrome (POS) is a rare condition characterized by positional shortness of breath and low blood oxygen levels. These features are triggered by standing and alleviated by clinostatism. It is most often linked to right-to-left shunting through a patent foramen ovale (PFO) or…
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation for pure insufficiency in the setting of acute heart failure
Anno:
2025
Background and Aim: Patients affected by acute heart failure with associated severe valvular heart disease exhibit poor prognosis with early reduced late survival. Bridge strategies have been used to stabilize patient in order to perform to the surgical treatment or HTX in best achievable clinical condition. Data on TAVR as bridge…
Coronary revascularization in a hemophilic patient: mast the challenge
Anno:
2025
Background: Acute coronary syndrome in patients with hemophilia is a rare but challenging scenario since a double high risk of thrombotic and bleeding complications has to be faced (fig.1). Case report: We present the case of a 64-years-old man admitted to our department for NSTEMI with a mildly reduced left ventricle ejection…

Anno:
2025
Clinical case An 83-year-old woman with a hypertension, dyslipidemia and primary biliary cirrhosis, presented, several years ago, an acute myocardial infarction treated with PCI on anterior descending artery (LAD). In the following years due to persistent inducible ischemia and chest pain, she underwent another PCI with stenting of circumflex…

META-ANALYTIC REVIEW OF PERIOPERATIVE INFARCTION AFTER CARDIAC SURGERY
Anno:
2025
INTRODUCTION:   Perioperative infarction (PMI) after cardiac surgery is a non-rare event requiring complex multidisciplinary management. The Third Universal Definition of MI defines type 5 MI as an elevation of cardiac troponin values ​​>10× 99th percentile during the first 48 h following CABG surgery. PMI often requires coronary angiography…
