Transfemoral TAVR in a Quadricuspid Aortic Valve With Pure Regurgitation Open
We present a case of successful transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement for a rare quadricuspid aortic valve with pure aortic regurgitation. Procedural challenges included identifying the annular plane, determining the appropri…

Acute Native Aortic Valve Thrombosis in the Setting of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Open
Aortic valve (AV) thrombosis is a rare but clinically significant condition with fewer than 80 cases of native AV thrombosis reported over the past 50 years. The clinical presentation varies widely, ranging from asymptomatic cases to acute…

E-45 | Coronary Catheterizations Using Distal Versus Conventional Radial Artery Access: A Systematic Review of Randomized Control Trials Open
Distal radial artery (DRA) access is an alternative to the conventional radial artery (CRA) access for coronary catheterization and is associated with varying incidences of certain procedural and clinical outcomes. A systematic review of r…

Aerococcus urinae Infective Endocarditis Open
Aerococcus urinae is a gram-positive organism frequently found in the urinary tract. It is often mistaken for Streptococcus and Enterococcus based on its appearance. It commonly causes urinary tract infections but has rarely been associate…

Cardiac Structural Remodeling and Hemodynamic Patterns Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Open
Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasingly utilized for most patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis. TAVR is linked to enhanced long-term cardiac hemodynamics, reversal of left ventricle (LV) hypertr…

Recurrent Stress-Induced Cardiomyopathy With Cardiogenic Shock Requiring Impella Left Ventricular Assist Device Open
Stress-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) is associated with varying etiologies. We present a case of a 65-year-old female with recurrent SIC secondary to seizures who presented in cardiogenic shock requiring mechanical circulatory support using…

Genetics of Atrial Fibrillation Open
Background Atrial fibrillation ( AF ) is a common arrhythmia seen in clinical practice. Occasionally, no common risk factors are present in patients with this arrhythmia. This suggests the potential underlying role of genetic factors assoc…

Aspirin safety in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention Open
The use of aspirin, as part of a dual antiplatelet therapy regimen, is an established standard following coronary stenting in patients suffering from acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) defic…

Primary Paraganglioma of the Thyroid Gland: Clinical and Immunohistological Analysis with a Literature Review Open
Primary paraganglioma of the thyroid is a rare neuroendocrine tumour, often mistaken for other thyroid neoplasms. Here, we describe a case of initially misdiagnosed primary paraganglioma of the thyroid and study its clinical presentation, …
