Abstract The VARC (Valve Academic Research Consortium) for transcatheter aortic valve
replacement set the standard for selecting appropriate clinical endpoints reflecting safety …

Intracardiac echocardiography has historically been used to guide a limited number of
transcatheter cardiac interventions. However, the tremendous advances in structural heart …

An increasing number of surgically implanted bioprostheses will require re-intervention for
structural valve deterioration. Valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve replacement (ViV …

Objectives This study aimed to assess current temporal trends in utilization of ICE versus
TEE guided closure of interatrial communications, and to compare periprocedural …

Hemolysis is an unintended sequel of temporary or permanent intracardiac devices.
However, limited data exist on the characteristics and treatment of hemolysis in patients with …

Background—Percutaneous closure of prosthetic mitral valve paravalvular leak (PVL) has
emerged as an alternative to surgical treatment in high-risk patients. Limited data exist on …

Left atrial appendage occlusion is an increasingly adopted stroke prevention strategy in
patients with atrial fibrillation. However, peridevice leaks after the procedure are not …

Percutaneous paravalvular leak (PVL) closure has emerged as a feasible alternative to redo
valve surgery. However, comparative data on percutaneous and surgical treatment of PVL …

Objectives To investigate the feasibility, procedural success, and outcomes of paravalvular
leak (PVL) closure in patients with prior transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) …

Structural heart disease (SHD) emergencies include acute deterioration of a stable lesion or
development of a new critical lesion. Structural heart disease emergencies can produce …
