This last year, new data in structural heart disease gave way to changes in practices and new hypotheses, when not simply further justified the already existing evidence. In this new editorial section, we share the most relevant of last year’s works to keep you up to speed on the main topics in the field.

01- Management of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms in 2021 Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are those of >3 cm aortic diameter. They run the risk of rupture and ensuing death by bleeding. In consequence, they are treated to repair the aneurysm before it ruptures.

TCT 2021 | STOPDAPT-2 and MASTER-DAPT: The Conversation Continues from ESC to TCT
Research on short-term dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is still controversial. These discussions, however, seem to lead to the consensus that beyond the “category” of bleeding or ischemic risk, what is most important is a decision tailored to the patient being treated. DAPT duration should be individual, instead of standardized by a risk score. In the<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2021/11/12/tct-2021-stopdapt-2-and-master-dapt-the-conversation-continues-from-esc-to-tct-2/" title="Read more" >...</a>

STOPDAPT-2 ACS: One-Month DAPT NOT Enough in acute patients
One-month dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in patients undergoing acute coronary syndrome (ACS) did not reach the safety and efficacy results observed in the general population of the original trial STOPDAPT-2. The STOPDAPT-2 ACS compared one-month DAPT followed by clopidogrel monotherapy for one year vs. one-year DAPT after PCI. Initially, the study enrolled mostly stable patients<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2021/10/07/stopdapt-2-acs-one-month-dapt-not-enough-in-acute-patients/" title="Read more" >...</a>

ESC 2021 | RIPCORD-2: Routine FFR Evaluation of All Epicardial Vessels During Angiography
The predecessor of this research—RIPCORD, published in 2014—showed that using fractional flow reserve (FFR) changes the treatment strategy in about 25% of patients. That marked the rise of FFR. In fact, the DEFER, FAME, and FAME 2 studies offered results consistent with the original RIPCORD. In this research, authors tested the hypothesis of systematic use of<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2021/09/01/esc-2021-ripcord-2-routine-ffr-evaluation-of-all-epicardial-vessels-during-angiography/" title="Read more" >...</a>
