One of the main complications of alcohol septal ablation (ASA) is the alteration in the conduction system, which could lead to permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation. This is mainly due to the relationship between septal perfusion and the conduction system (especially the right bundle branch). The incidence reported in the literature is 7% to 20% of...
Studies have shown that the use of computed tomography cardiac angiography (CTCA) prior invasive coronary angiography (ICA) in patients with prior cardiac artery bypass graft (CABG) might reduce procedural time and post procedure kidney injury. 1 out of 5 patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy and prior CABG need to be assessed with ICA within 3 years...

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most common valvulopathy: it is present in (at least) 7.5% of patients >75 years old. This pathology can be classified as primary or degenerative MR (DMR) and secondary or functional MR (FMR). FMR can be caused by dilatation of the left atrium (most often due to atrial fibrillation), occurring in...

This study, presented by Dr. Valentin Fuster, focused on the importance of medical treatment compliance, initially showing data from the FOCUS study where the poor compliance observed in patients after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) event was improved by creating a polypill (aspirin, simvastatin, and ramipril). Based on this, the SECURE randomized study was conducted...
Percutaneous coronary interventions have improved during the last decade with 15% rate of target vessel failure (TVF) at 5 years according to the latest reports. We are already familiar with the benefits of functional assessment of lesions with FFR and its clinical outcomes. Additionally, low post PCI FFR values (FFR ≤ 0.83-≤0.91) have been associated...
The use of surgical bioprostheses has significantly increased, and while they last 15 years or more, in cases where they fail (usually due to stenosis), the decision-making process is challenging. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a good alternative for this situation, although information on the subject matter is still scarce. Currently, the only available...
