El estudio SOURCE 3 confirma los buenos resultados de la válvula SAPIEN 3 a un año de seguimiento

The SOURCE 3 Confirms the Good Outcomes of the SAPIEN 3 at One Year Followup

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)&nbsp;was developed as a strategy to treat non-surgical aortic stenosis, and was later expanded to elderly patients at intermediate risk, because of increased operator experience (overcoming the learning curve) and improved devices. The present study presents the one year outcomes of the SOURCE 3 trial, the multicenter European registry of the<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2017/10/27/the-source-3-confirms-the-good-outcomes-of-the-sapien-3-at-one-year-followup/" title="Read more" >...</a>

An Important Study Shows That Renal Function Must Be Cared for in TAVR

Courtesy of Dr. Carlos&nbsp;Fava. The presence of renal dysfunction in the real world is over 25% in patients who undergo transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The evolution of this disease among patients who are subjected to a replacement is well known, but evidence for patients who undergo TAVI is still limited, particularly for those who<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2017/10/20/an-important-study-shows-that-renal-function-must-be-cared-for-in-tavr/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Las plataformas bioabsorbibles no deben ser elegidas por sobre los DES actuales

Bioresorbable Scaffolds Must Not Be Chosen Over Current DES

Although there are 4 approved bioresorbable scaffolds (BRS) in Europe, experts suggest that current drug-eluting stents (DES) are the best option for coronary angioplasty. These new guidelines jointly published by the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and the Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EAPCI) are an update on the use of BRS in clinical practice<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2017/10/19/bioresorbable-scaffolds-must-not-be-chosen-over-current-des/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Anillo pequeño, ¿debemos comenzar a elegir la válvula?

Small Annulus: Should We Start Choosing the Valve?

Courtesy of Dr. Carlos Fava. A small annulus in patients with&nbsp;Severe Aortic Stenosis&nbsp;is a real challenge, since it is associated with post-surgical prosthesis patient mismatch (PPM), which negatively affects prosthesis duration and evolution.&nbsp;TAVR has become a good alternative strategy, with better hemodynamic profile and lower PPM incidence in this group.

Cirugía para mejorar la sobrevida en insuficiencia tricuspidea aislada

Tricuspid and Bicuspid Valves Present More Coincidences Than Expected

There is more and more positive evidence that new-generation transcatheter valves, originally designed to treat tricuspid aortic valves, work perfectly fine on bicuspid aortic valves. A comparison of computerized tomography (CT) scans obtained before and after the procedure showed that the most commonly used devices appear to reshape the aortic annulus to the same degree<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2017/10/13/tricuspid-and-bicuspid-valves-present-more-coincidences-than-expected/" title="Read more" >...</a>

¿Cateterismo o cirugía para el cierre del leak paravalvular?

Transcatheter Reduction or Surgery for Paravalvular Leak Repair?

Paravalvular leak is complication derived from incomplete sealing between the implanted prosthesis and the native annulus, which occurs in 5% of all patients who undergo mitral valve replacement and 10% of those who undergo transcatheter aortic valve replacement. This is the most frequent non-structural valve dysfunction. While mild leaks can be asymptomatic, moderate to severe<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2017/10/12/transcatheter-reduction-or-surgery-for-paravalvular-leak-repair/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Lesión de múltiples vasos y enfermedad carotidea severa ¿Cómo proceder?

Multivessel Disease and Severe Carotid Stenosis: How to Proceed

Myocardial revascularization surgery (CABG)&nbsp;is the most frequent of all cardiovascular surgeries and is still the gold standard to treat&nbsp;multivessel disease.&nbsp; Between 6 and 8% of these patients present concomitant carotid stenosis and it is associated with increased peri and post procedural stroke rates during and after surgery. To prevent carotid stenosis, either PCI or endarterectomy<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2017/10/11/multivessel-disease-and-severe-carotid-stenosis-how-to-proceed/" title="Read more" >...</a>

La diálisis nueva post TAVI aumenta la mortalidad.

The need for dialysis after TAVR increases mortality

Courtesy of Dr. Carlos Fava. Stage&nbsp;III or higher renal impairment is frequent before TAVR, and the need for new dialysis after the procedure may reach up to 20%. Within that percentage, 5% may require permanent dialysis, which increases mortality up to 9&nbsp;times at one year. In that sense, factors leading to that complication have not<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2017/09/19/the-need-for-dialysis-after-tavr-increases-mortality/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Un seguimiento mínimo y apropiado reduce la mortalidad luego de una endoprótesis

Minimum Appropriate Follow-Up Reduces Mortality After Endoprosthesis Implantation

No study has been able to prove long-term benefit of regular imaging follow-up after abdominal aortic aneurysm repair by means of&nbsp;endoprosthesis implantation. This is important because the costs for these studies are high, which should be added to potential radiation and contrast morbidity. This work sought to characterize the association between post-endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2017/09/08/minimum-appropriate-follow-up-reduces-mortality-after-endoprosthesis-implantation/" title="Read more" >...</a>
