Left atrial volume during stress is associated with increased risk of arrhythmias in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Introduction: In patients affected by hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), left atrial volume index (LAVi) is associated with an increased risk of tachyarrhythmias and major clinical events. To...
StepWise protocols for scoring of mitral valve using three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography in mitral stenosis
Aim: This study aims to propose protocols that enable scoring of mitral valve (MV) in mitral stenosis using the three-dimensional (3D) scoring system. Methods: A two-staged study was c...
Three-dimensional echocardiographic imaging of a Gerbode defect complicating transcatheter aortic valve replacement
We describe a case of a 77-year-old male who underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVR) with Edwards SAPIEN XT size 26 mm for severe aortic stenosis. Postprocedural transesophageal ech...
