conclusions high risk patients needing avr are optimal candidates for transcatheter aortic valve implantation. tavi is a valuable solution for high risk patients needing avr. obtained results are comparable to results in transthoracic avr in standard candidates for aortic valve implantation. background transcatheter aortic valve implantation (tavi) has emerged as an alternative treatment to cla...
background: blood viscosity and aortic sclerosis (as) are strong predictors of cardiovascular events. the effects of blood viscosity on as have not been studied adequately. we aimed to investigate the potential connection between whole blood viscosity (wbv) and as. methods: as was detected by transthoracic echocardiography. the estimation of wbv was carried out at both high shear rate (hsr) (...
conclusions moderate ppm has no negative effect on echocardiographic trans-aortic pressure gradients or the patients’ nyha functional status after avr with a carbomedics prosthesis in the mid-term follow up. results of the 66 studied patients, 39 were male and 27 were female. the mean age of the patients was 43 ± 17 with a range of 6 - 76 years. implanted sizes of the carbomedics av prosthesis ...
a ruptured sinus of valsalva aneurysm rarely accompanies the aortic and tricuspid valve endocarditis. a 36-year-old woman presented with low-threshold dyspnea on exertion and fever. transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography showed a ruptured noncoronary sinus of valsalva aneurysm with large vegetations on the tricuspid and aortic valves, resulting in moderately severe tricuspid regurgi...
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a novel therapeutic intervention for the replacement of severely stenotic aortic valves in high-risk patients for standard surgical procedures. Since the initial PARTNER trial results, use of TAVR has been on the rise each year. New delivery methods and different valves have been developed and modified in order to promote the minimally invasive p...
background: echocardiography is the most common test used for the evaluation of aortic regurgitation (ar). however, the role of echocardiography as an available and inexpensive method in the quantification of ar by the left ventricle to right ventricle stroke volume ratio (lv/rv sv ratio) has not been completely investigated. methods: between june 2005 and december 2007, 132 consecutive patient...
A total of 14 cases of infective endocarditis (IE) in children aged 6 months to 10 years were seen from December 1987 to December 1992 at the pediatric unit of Ayatollah Taleghani Medical Center. The majority of patients (12 of 14) were between 5 and 10 years of age. Acyanotic congenital heart disease was known to preexist in 78.6% and rheumatic valvular heart disease in 21.4% of cases. Or...
multiple aorto-cardiac cavity communications is very rare but important complication of prosthetic aortic valve endocarditis. the case below illustrates multiple aorto-cardiac cavity fistula formation following prostethic aortic valve endocarditis presented with slowly progressive symptoms of heart failure. a brief review of surgical reconstruction and the existing literature are presented, inc...
Mitral valve replacement (MVR) is usually performed in two methods of running and interrupted suturing. In running method, the suturing of the valve is usually with some traction on the annulus and also there is a risk of aortic valve injury. This study was conducted to evaluate a new technique for suturing to avoid these complications and decrease the time of cardiac arrest. One hundred an...
Aorto-left ventricular tunnel (ALVT) is a rare congenital anomaly in which an abnormal communication connects the ascending aorta with the left ventricle, that results volume overload on left ventricle. It is clinically undistinguishable from aortic insufficiency. Its prompt and precise diagnosis is crucial since early surgical treatment is definitely indicated. In this report clinical,...
