Single-centre retrospective propensity score–matched study from Columbia University Irving Medical Center, New York, comparing double valve surgery (DVS) with isolated transcatheter aortic valve replacement (I-TAVR) in patients with severe aortic stenosis and concomitant moderate-to-severe mitral stenosis, with particular focus on heart failure readmissions during follow-up.
This study evaluates the AMDS Hybrid Prosthesis as an adjunct to conventional open repair in acute DeBakey type I aortic dissection with malperfusion, aiming to stabilize the aortic arch, expand the true lumen, and reduce dynamic malperfusion without routine total arch replacement.
This article provides an overview of iatrogenic aortic dissection based on an international registry, addressing its clinical features, diagnostic challenges, and different management strategies compared with spontaneous aortic dissection.
Translational study assessing the feasibility of percutaneous implantation of an aortic bioprosthesis within a dysfunctional mechanical valve (ViMech-TAVI), from an animal model to the first-in-human cases.
Retrospective study from a referral centre in Korea comparing distal aortic remodelling after surgery for type I aortic dissection.
Observational single-centre study evaluating mid- and long-term outcomes of left carotid-subclavian bypass associated with TEVAR, with particular focus on graft patency, bypass-related complications, survival, and need for reintervention during follow-up.
Commentary on the GUARDIAN registry evaluating donor heart preservation outcomes during transport with different static cold storage–based systems.
A review of several recent studies analyzing current treatment strategies for postinfarction ventricular septal rupture, including delayed surgical repair, mechanical circulatory support, percutaneous closure, and advanced therapies as a bridge to heart transplantation.
Review of a US national database assessing heart transplantation outcomes among patients bridged with ECMO according to whether they were extubated at the time of transplant.
This article, published in February 2026, provides a concise update on the evaluation and management of tricuspid regurgitation (TR), in light of the major advances in both the diagnostic assessment of tricuspid valve disease and the emergence of new evidence on surgical and transcatheter treatment.
