Abstract

The Cardiovalve (Cardiovalve Ltd., Or Yehuda, Israel) is a transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) system implanted through a fully percutaneous transseptal approach, which may overcome most of the limitations of current TMVR systems. The Cardiovalve is based on a low-profile design of 3

Abstract

Nowadays it is believed that atherosclerotic plaque formation and coronary artery thrombosis are a result of a cascade of inflammatory processes. Leukocytes are one of the main mediators of the inflammation. We aimed to assess the correlation between leukocytes and long-term mortality in patients

Abstract

Patients with STEMI undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) frequently have suboptimal platelet inhibition in the early hours after the ticagrelor loading dose. It has been hypothesized that early loading dose administration optimizes platelet inhibition in PPCI and, therefore

Abstract

Advances in stenting technology and procedural technique are changing the role of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the treatment of left main coronary artery (LMCA) disease. The location of the lesion in LMCA has a great influence on the stenting strategy. In many cases, the length of the

Abstract

Inflammation plays a key role in the process of the formation of the atherosclerosis and in the pathogenesis of acute coronary syndrome. Myocardial necrosis induces the release of proinflammatory markers. It may even lead to tissue damage and eventually to the development of undesirable events such

Abstract

Bifurcation percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains a challenging frontier in interventional cardiology. In percutaneous coronary intervention for de novo coronary non-left main bifurcation lesions, the optimal technique for stenting is still a matter of discussion. We sought to determine

Abstract

Most attempts to intervene on coronary chronic total occlusions fail because the wire cannot cross the occlusion. Three main strategies can be used to cross a CTO: antegrade wire escalation, antegrade dissection/re-entry and retrograde. The basic underlying principle of the hybrid approach (HA) is
