Ventricular septal defect complicating acute myocardial infarction: diagnosis and management. A Clinical Consensus Statement of the Association for Acute CardioVascular Care (ACVC) of the ESC, the European Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EAPCI) of the ESC and the ESC Working Group on Cardiovascular Surgery Open
Ventricular septal defects are a rare complication after acute myocardial infarction with a mortality close to 100% if left untreated. However, even surgical or interventional closure is associated with a very high mortality and currently …

35 Plaque erosion pilot study II (PEPSII): is there an association between circulating endothelial cells and plaque erosion Open
Introduction Plaque erosion accounts for 30-40% of cases associated with a Type 1 MI and appears to have a different pathology compared to plaque rupture but the underlying mechanisms are uncertain. The Plaque Erosion Pilot Study carried o…

Percutaneous Transcatheter Closure of Post-infarction Ventricular Septal Defect: An Alternative to Surgical Intervention Open
Post-infarction ventricular septal defect is a mechanical complication of acute MI. The incidence of this complication is low in the primary percutaneous coronary intervention era. However, the associated mortality is very high at 94% with…

Novel Approach for Assessing Postinfarct Myocardial Injury and Inflammation Using Hybrid Somatostatin Receptor Positron Emission Tomography/Magnetic Resonance Imaging Open
Post-infarct inflammation and its resolution modulate ischemic injury after myocardial infarction (MI). While cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is useful for assessing ventricular function, viability and structural complications aft…

Imaging of post-infarct myocardial inflammation with 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/MRI Open
Background After myocardial infarction (MI), inflammation and its resolution modulate the extent of myocardial damage. 68Ga-DOTATATE is a PET tracer that binds to somatostatin receptor 2 (SST2), which is up-regulated in pro-inflammatory ma…

Patent Foramen Ovale Closure: State of the Art Open
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a common abnormality affecting between 20% and 34% of the adult population. For most people, it is a benign finding; however, in some people, the PFO can open widely to enable paradoxical embolus to transit fr…
