Abstract: Elderly patients with frailty and multiple comorbidities increasingly require mitral valve surgery. This includes patients who have previously undergone surgery with a tissue valve, which may deteriorate over time and require replacement. These cases are considered high-risk. There is growing interest in performing valve replacements using minimally invasive techniques, including access via the groin. However, such approaches are not always... [...] Read more

Abstract: Multivalvular heart disease represents a less explored domain within cardiovascular surgery. In patients with aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing surgical or transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), the prevalence of moderate to severe mitral regurgitation (MR) ranges from 8% to 33%. Among the most common presentations are patients with severe AS and clinically significant functional MR. In instances of moderate surgical risk, open-heart... [...] Read more

Abstract: Early detection of Congenital Hypothyroidism (CH) is crucial to prevent intellectual disability in affected neonates. Neonatal screening for CH typically involves measuring thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and thyroxine (T4) levels, with methods varying between cord blood and venous blood sampling. This study aims to compare the efficacy and reliability of cord blood versus day 3 venous blood sampling in the screening for CH to inform best... [...] Read more

Abstract: Background and Aim of the Study: An incompetent bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) can be treated through valve replacement or repair using various surgical techniques. This study presents the outcomes of a 13-year single-surgeon experience in BAV repair and compares two annuloplasty techniques: external and subcommissural aortic annuloplasty. Materials and Methods: A total of 150 consecutive patients (111 males; mean age: 43.2 ± 17.5 years)... [...] Read more

Abstract: Background: Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair of the mitral valve (M-TEER) improves outcomes in patients with chronic severe symptomatic mitral valve regurgitation who are at high risk for surgical mitral valve repair or replacement. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to describe the outcomes of M-TEER in patients with moderate-to-severe (stage III; Group 1) chronic kidney diseases (CKD) and end-stage kidney disease (stages...

Abstract: Background: Tricuspid valve endocarditis (TVE) remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Given the considerable variation in presentation and severity, as well as ongoing advances in percutaneous and operative interventions, the optimal treatment strategy remains undetermined. This study aims to report the outcomes of medical management (MM), percutaneous mechanical aspiration (PMA), and surgical intervention in... [...] Read more

Abstract: Background and aim of the study: Minimally invasive approaches for aortic valve replacement (AVR) are clinically beneficial for patients but are more technically demanding for surgeons. Sutureless AVR is a new and minimally invasive approach. The study aim was to evaluate initial AVR outcomes in patients aged >75 years after setting up a sutureless minimally invasive surgery program. Methods: Between January 2014 and December 2015, a total... [...] Read more

Abstract: Background and Study Aims: Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) remains a leading cause of mitral valve disease globally, particularly in developing countries, where it poses a significant burden on cardiovascular health. Mitral valve repair (MVP) and replacement are the primary surgical interventions; however, the optimal selection between these procedures remains a subject of ongoing debate. This study aims to systematically review the clinical... [...] Read more

Abstract: Heart valve replacements are life-saving procedures essential for patients with dysfunctional heart valves. The global market for prosthetic heart valves is valued at approximately USD 8.71 billion in 2024, with devices available in various forms, including mechanical, transcatheter, and biological valves used for both replacement and repair procedures. While traditional prosthetic valves have improved survival, they present several... [...] Read more

Abstract: Infective endocarditis (IE) is a rare but life-threatening cardiac condition. Healthcare-associated infective endocarditis (HAIE) is an emerging subtype that occurs more than 48 hours after hospital admission, often following invasive procedures. Its occurrence in patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) is not uncommon. Prosthetic valve endocarditis may also be healthcare-associated (HA-PVE) when it develops within one year of valve...

Abstract: Calcific aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular heart disease requiring invasive intervention. While the implantation of an artificial heart valve restores normal intracardiac hemodynamics, baseline left ventricular (LV) parameters can significantly influence both early and long-term postoperative outcomes. It is well-established that patients with LV dilation experience worse outcomes after surgical or transcatheter treatment of... [...] Read more
