Cardiac rhabdomyosarcomas (RMS) are rare malignant tumors of the heart with a poor prognosis, even when appropriate treatment regimens initiated. We present case 12-year-old male who underwent radical resection right atrial mass, which was confirmed to be primary cardiac RMS. He has received regular follow-up for last 35 years, representing what is our knowledge longest reported disease-free survival in patient
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as an alternative treatment option for patients with severe stenosis regardless of surgical risk, particularly in those a high and prohibitive risk. Since the advent TAVR, transfemoral access been standard care. However, given comorbidities anatomical limitations, proportion are not good candidates approach. Alternative access, including transapical, transaortic, transaxillary, transsubclavian, transcarotid, transcaval, can be...
Purpose: The Convergent procedure is a hybrid, multidisciplinary treatment for symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF) consisting of minimally invasive surgical epicardial ablation and percutaneous/catheter endocardial ablation. We investigated outcomes following introduction the at our institution.
Excessive bleeding can be a problem during or after cardiac surgery. While cardiopulmonary bypass-associated platelet dysfunction is an important inducer of coagulopathy, preoperative also contribute to this bleeding. We investigated the relationship between and transfusion blood products given children undergoing surgery.The function analyser test measures in vitro by aspirating through small standard hole (creating high shear) collagen membrane infused with agonist. The time taken form...
Key Teaching Points•Owing to the significant risk of pulmonary embolism with hemodynamic compromise, large lead- associated vegetations may limit transvenous lead extraction without a prevention strategy.•This is first description using FlowTriever aspiration system (Inari Medical, Irvine, CA) in removal at time extraction. Advantages this include avoiding veno-veno bypass, minimal blood loss, and catheter sizing options for accommodating vegetations.•Transcutaneous feasible be preferred...
The use of intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) has emerged as a promising imaging modality for intraprocedural guidance various structural procedures, primarily related to its ease use, moderate sedation, and in some cases, better image quality.1Kaplan R.M.

To evaluate transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) operator procedural volumes, and describe temporal geographic trends.TAVR is the standard of care for most patients with severe symptomatic stenosis. Despite an association between volume outcomes, nationwide TAVR volumes have been incompletely described.We queried National Medicare Provider Utilization Payment Database transfemoral TAVRs from 2014 to 2018. Annual volume, state regional longitudinal trends were extracted analyzed...
Chest radiation therapy (XRT) has been associated with a higher rate of mortality following surgical aortic valve replacement. We performed single-center retrospective analysis patients severe AS who underwent TAVI from January 1 2012 to July 31 2020 comparing and without XRT. A total 915 met inclusion criteria, 50 found have history At mean follow-up 2.4 years, unadjusted propensity score matching demonstrated no differences in mortality, heart failure or bleeding-related hospitalization,...
Transcatheter mitral valve in ring procedure has emerged as a minimally invasive alternative to re-do surgery among patients with failed annuloplasty rings. Uncommonly, haemolysis presents complication after the percutaneous valvular procedures and often require aggressive measures correct paravalvular leaks mechanical collision.We report case of an 82-year-old female who underwent transcatheter (Edwards Sapien S3, Edwards Lifesciences) for symptomatic severe regurgitation from bioprosthetic...
