Emergent revascularization strategy after acute coronary syndrome requiring extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation: surgery or PCI?
This study compares the outcomes of surgical versus percutaneous revascularization strategies in patients with triple vessel disease and acute coronary syndrome requiring extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR), based on retrospective data from two reference centers.
New tools for the surgical treatment of complex tricuspid regurgitation
Review emphasizing the experience of San Raffaele Hospital in the surgical management of tricuspid regurgitation when annuloplasty alone is insufficient, using clover and edge-to-edge repair techniques.
Treatment of transcatheter aortic valve (TAVI) thrombosis: a critical analysis

Percutaneous repair to treat functional mitral regurgitation: edge-to-edge therapies are here to stay
A meta-analysis summarizing current evidence from the three main studies on the use of edge-to-edge therapies to treat moderate-to-severe functional mitral regurgitation in patients with symptomatic heart failure.
What can structural interventions offer in heart failure? beyond valvular diseases
A bibliographic review of the current percutaneous devices available for the treatment of heart failure, including interventions on cardiac valves, left ventricular remodeling, or other approaches.
Innovations in the surgical treatment of aortic arch pathology: increasingly endovascular?
A study published by an Austrian group presents the surgical outcomes following the hybrid implantation of a custom-made aortic prosthesis for the treatment of aortic arch pathology during their initial experience at their center.
Comparison of outcomes and required tools for transvenous lead extraction: insights from a high-volume center
This study compares the safety and efficacy of transvenous lead extraction (TLE) for implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and pacemakers (PMs), analyzing procedural differences based on a large-scale prospective registry from Cleveland Clinic over a decade.
