Post-operative Left Ventricular Reverse Remodeling in Severe Aortic Valve Regurgitation After TAVI vs SAVR
Anno:
2025
Background: Severe native aortic regurgitation is characterized by volume overload and structural myocardial changes leading to progressive left ventricular dysfunction. Surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) and transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) may favor left ventricle reverse remodeling (LVRR). Objectives: To evaluate the immediate and mid-term LVRR in patients treated…
Still waters run deep: A Rare Case of EGPA-Related Aortic Regurgitation
Anno:
2025
Case Presentation: A 54-year-old man presented with acute chest pain, rapidly worsening dyspnea, and intermittent fever over two months. ECG showed junctional ectopic tachycardia and incomplete left bundle branch block. Blood tests revealed elevated Hs-TnI (616-2993 pg/ml) and NT-proBNP (14,970 pg/ml). Medical history included eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA),…
Safe and Effective Redo-TAVR with Edwards SAPIEN 3 in a Degenerated ACURATE neo2 Valve: A Case Report
Anno:
2025
This case report highlights the successful management of severe aortic insufficiency caused by bioprosthetic valve dysfunction in an 86-year-old male with a history of comorbidities, including arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes, and chronic kidney disease. The patient previously underwent TAVI with an ACURATE neo2 valve (27 mm) for…
SURGICAL MANAGEMENT OF QUADRICUSPID AORTIC VALVE
Anno:
2025
A 54-year-old woman presented in February 2024 with exertional dyspnea. She had no significant medical history, was a non-smoker, and denied medication use. Electrocardiography revealed left ventricular hypertrophy, while transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) showed an enlarged left ventricular cavity (end-diastolic diameter 54 mm) with normal wall thickness and preserved systolic…
VALVE FAILURE AND THROMBOEMBOLIC COMPLICATIONS IN A MARFAN SYNDROME PATIENT POST-YACOUB PROCEDURE AND MECHANICAL VALVE REPLACEMENT
Anno:
2025
The Yacoub technique is a valve-sparing procedure for ascending aorta replacement, preserving part of the aortic root and remodeling it with a Dacron graft to maintain the anatomy of the Valsalva sinuses. We present the case of 64-year-old man with past medical history significant for Marfan syndrome with pectus…
