Valvulopathies

Surgical commentary on transcatheter aortic valve explantation in settings of dysfunction and endocarditis, based on videos published in the Multimedia Manual of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery and CTSNet, along with recent technical articles addressing reproducible surgical strategies to avoid complete aortic root replacement and to manage these increasingly common cases with greater safety.

Comparative outcomes of the CORONEO® external ring versus a homemade Dacron ring for annular stabilization in aortic root remodeling surgery.

Retrospective observational study evaluating a modified surgical technique for sutureless Perceval valve implantation aimed at reducing the need for permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) by displacing the membranous septum.

This study aimed to retrospectively evaluate the mechanisms of repair failure in a cohort of 344 patients who underwent isolated mitral valve repair.

This retrospective observational study compared midterm outcomes after aortic valve replacement (AVR) with annular enlargement versus isolated AVR in 124 surgically treated patients.

Critical analysis of the randomized ACCESS-TAVI trial, published in the European Heart Journal, which compares two femoral closure strategies after transfemoral TAVI.

Results from the first randomized trial assessing transfemoral TAVR in patients with moderate aortic stenosis and ventricular dysfunction.

This retrospective study analyzed more than three thousand patients who underwent surgical mitral valve repair for degenerative mitral regurgitation, with a 10-year follow-up.

This study aimed to identify the risk factors associated with permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation following tricuspid valve (TV) surgery.

This retrospective study investigated the prognostic implications of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in a cohort of 2679 patients who underwent surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR), specifically assessing the potential benefit of concomitant tricuspid valve intervention in those with moderate TR.
