Abstract
Scarce data exist on mitral valve (MV) infective endocarditis (IE) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). This multicenter study included a total of 579 patients with a diagnosis of definite IE after TAVI from the IE after TAVI International Registry and aimed to evaluate the incidence, characteristics, management, and outcomes of MV-IE after TAVI. A total of 86 patients (14.9%) had MV-IE. These patients were compared with 284 patients (49.1%) with involvement of the transcatheter heart valve (THV) only. Two factors were found to be associated with MV-IE: the use of self-expanding valves (adjusted odds ratio 2.49, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.23 to 5.07, p = 0.012), and the presence of an aortic regurgitation ≥2 at discharge (adjusted odds ratio 3.33; 95% CI 1.43 to 7.73, p <0.01). There were no differences in IE timing and causative microorganisms between groups, but surgical management was significantly lower in patients with MV-IE (6.0%, vs 21.6% in patients with THV-IE, p = 0.001). All-cause mortality rates at 2-year follow-up were high and similar between patients with MV-IE (51.4%, 95% CI 39.8 to 64.1) and patients with THV-IE (51.5%, 95% CI 45.4 to 58.0) (log-rank p = 0.295). The factors independently associated with increased mortality risk in patients with MV-IE were the occurrence of heart failure (adjusted p <0.001) and septic shock (adjusted p <0.01) during the index hospitalization. One of 6 IE episodes after TAVI is localized on the MV. The implantation of a self-expanding THV and the presence of an aortic regurgitation ≥2 at discharge were associated with MV-IE. Patients with MV-IE were rarely operated on and had a poor prognosis at 2-year follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal treatment of patients developing infective endocarditis (IE) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is uncertain. OBJECTIVES The goal of this study was to investigate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with TAVI-IE treated with cardiac surgery and antibiotics (IE-CS) compared with patients treated with antibiotics alone (IE-AB). METHODS Crude and inverse probability of treatment weighting analyses were applied for the treatment effect of cardiac surgery vs medical therapy on 1-year all-cause mortality in patients with definite TAVI-IE. The study used data from the Infectious Endocarditis after TAVI International Registry. RESULTS Among 584 patients, 111 patients (19%) were treated with IE-CS and 473 patients (81%) with IE-AB. Compared with IE-AB, IE-CS was not associated with a lower in-hospital mortality (HRunadj: 0.85; 95% CI: 0.58-1.25) and 1-year all-cause mortality (HRunadj: 0.88; 95% CI: 0.64-1.22) in the crude cohort. After adjusting for selection and immortal time bias, IE-CS compared with IE-AB was also not associated with lower mortality rates for in-hospital mortality (HRadj: 0.92; 95% CI: 0.80-1.05) and 1-year all-cause mortality (HRadj: 0.95; 95% CI: 0.84-1.07). Results remained similar when patients with and without TAVI prosthesis involvement were analyzed separately. Predictors for in-hospital and 1-year all-cause mortality included logistic EuroSCORE I, Staphylococcus aureus, acute renal failure, persistent bacteremia, and septic shock. CONCLUSIONS In this registry, the majority of patients with TAVI-IE were treated with antibiotics alone. Cardiac surgery was not associated with an improved all-cause in-hospital or 1-year mortality. The high mortality of patients with TAVI-IE was strongly linked to patients' characteristics, pathogen, and IE-related complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infective endocarditis (IE) following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has been associated with a dismal prognosis. However, scarce data exist on IE perivalvular extension (PEE) in such patients. METHODS This multicenter study included a total of 579 patients who had the diagnosis of definite IE at a median of 171 (53-421) days following TAVR. PEE was defined as the presence of an intracardiac abscess, pseudoaneurysm or fistula confirmed by transthoracic/transophageal echocardiography, computed tomography or peri-operative findings. RESULTS A total of 105 patients (18.1%) were diagnosed with PEE (perivalvular abscess, pseudoaneurysm, fistula, or a combination in 87, 7, 7, and 4 patients, respectively). A history of chronic kidney disease (ORadj: 2.08; 95% CI: [1.27-3.41], p=0.003) and IE secondary to coagulase-negative staphylococci (ORadj: 2.71; 95% CI: [1.57-4.69], p<0.001) was associated with an increased risk of PEE. Surgery was performed at index IE episode in 34 patients (32.4%) with PEE (vs. 15.2% in patients without PEE, p<0.001). In-hospital and 2-year mortality rates among PEE-IE patients were 36.5% and 69.4%, respectively. Factors independently associated with an increased mortality risk were the occurrence of other complications (stroke post-TAVR, acute renal failure, septic shock) and the lack of surgery at index IE hospitalization (padj<0.05 for all). CONCLUSION PEE occurred in about one fifth of IE post-TAVR patients, with the presence of coagulase-negative staphylococci and chronic kidney disease determining an increased risk. Patients with PEE-IE exhibited very high early and late mortality rates, and surgery during IE hospitalization seemed to be associated with better outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Staphylococcus aureus (S aureus) has been extensively studied as causative microorganism of surgical prosthetic-valve infective endocarditis (IE). However, scarce evidence exists on S aureus IE after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). METHODS Data was obtained from the Infectious Endocarditis after TAVR International Registry including patients with definite IE following TAVR from 59 centers in 11 countries. Patients were divided into two groups according to microbiological etiology (non-S aureus-IE, non-SA-IE vs. S aureus-IE, SA-IE). RESULTS SA-IE was identified in 141 out of 573 (24.6%) patients, methicillin-sensitive S aureus in most cases (115/141, 81.6%). SEV were more common than BEV in patients with early SA-IE. Major bleeding and sepsis complicating TAVR, neurological symptoms or systemic embolism at admission and IE with cardiac device involvement other than the TAVR prosthesis were associated with SA-IE (p<0.05 for all). Among IE post-TAVR patients, the likelihood of SA-IE increased from 19% in the absence of those risk factors to 84.6% if ≥3 risk factors were present. In-hospital (47.8% vs. 26.9%, p<0.001) and 2-year mortality (71.5% vs. 49.6%, p<0.001) rates were higher among SA-IE (vs. non-SA-IE) patients. Surgery at the time of index SA-IE was associated with a lower mortality rate at follow-up (HRadj: 0.46, 95% CI: 0.22-0.96, p=0.038). CONCLUSIONS SA-IE represented ∼ 25% of IE cases after TAVR and was associated with a very high in-hospital and late mortality. The presence of some features determined a higher likelihood of SA-IE and could help to orientate early antibiotic regimen selection. Surgery at index SA-IE was associated with improved outcomes, and its role should be evaluated in future studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stroke is one of the most common and potentially disabling complications of infective endocarditis (IE). However, scarce data exist about stroke complicating IE after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence, risk factors, clinical characteristics, management, and outcomes of patients with definite IE after TAVR complicated by stroke during index IE hospitalization. METHODS Data from the Infectious Endocarditis after TAVR International Registry (including 569 patients who developed definite IE following TAVR from 59 centers in 11 countries) was analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups according to stroke occurrence during IE admission (stroke [S-IE] vs. no stroke [NS-IE]). RESULTS A total of 57 (10%) patients had a stroke during IE hospitalization, with no differences in causative microorganism between groups. S-IE patients exhibited higher rates of acute renal failure, systemic embolization, and persistent bacteremia (p < 0.05 for all). Previous stroke before IE, residual aortic regurgitation ≥moderate after TAVR, balloon-expandable valves, IE within 30 days after TAVR, and vegetation size >8 mm were associated with a higher risk of stroke during the index IE hospitalization (p < 0.05 for all). Stroke rate in patients with no risk factors was 3.1% and increased up to 60% in the presence of >3 risk factors. S-IE patients had higher rates of in-hospital mortality (54.4% vs. 28.7%; p < 0.001) and overall mortality at 1 year (66.3% vs. 45.6%; p < 0.001). Surgical treatment was not associated with improved outcomes in S-IE patients (in-hospital mortality: 46.2% in surgical vs. 58.1% in no surgical treatment; p = 0.47). CONCLUSIONS Stroke occurred in 1 of 10 patients with IE post-TAVR. A history of stroke, short time between TAVR and IE, vegetation size, valve prosthesis type, and residual aortic regurgitation determined an increased risk. The occurrence of stroke was associated with increased in-hospital and 1-year mortality rates, and surgical treatment failed to improve clinical outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Procedural improvements combined with the contemporary clinical profile of patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) may have influenced the incidence and outcomes of infective endocarditis (IE) following TAVR. We aimed to determine the temporal trends, characteristics, and outcomes of IE post-TAVR. METHODS Observational study including 552 patients presenting definite IE post-TAVR. Patients were divided in 2 groups according to the timing of TAVR (historical cohort [HC]: before 2014; contemporary cohort [CC]: after 2014). RESULTS Overall incidence rates of IE were similar in both cohorts (CC vs HC: 5.45 vs 6.52 per 1000 person-years; P = .12), but the rate of early IE was lower in the CC (2.29‰ vs 4.89‰, P < .001). Enterococci were the most frequent microorganism. Most patients presented complicated IE ( CC: 67.7%; HC: 69.6%; P = .66), but the rate of surgical treatment remained low (CC: 20.7%; HC: 17.3%; P = .32). The CC exhibited lower rates of in-hospital acute kidney injury (35.1% vs 44.6%; P = .036) and in-hospital (26.6% vs 36.4%; P = .016) and 1-year (37.8% vs 53.5%; P < .001) mortality. Higher logistic EuroScore, Staphylococcus aureus etiology, and complications (stroke, heart failure, and acute renal failure) were associated with in-hospital mortality in multivariable analyses (P < .05 for all). CONCLUSIONS Although overall IE incidence has remained stable, the incidence of early IE has declined in recent years. The microorganism, high rate of complications, and very low rate of surgical treatment remained similar. In-hospital and 1-year mortality rates were high but progressively decreased over time.

Abstract
We report 2 cases of transposition of the great arteries associated with anomalous pulmonary venous connection emphasizing the clinical findings, the diagnosis, and the evolution of the association. One of the patients had the anomalous pulmonary venous connection in its total infradiaphragmatic form, in the portal system, and the other patient had a partial form, in which an anomalous connection of the left superior lobar vein with the innominate vein existed. At the time of hospital admission, the patients had cyanosis and respiratory distress with clinical findings suggesting transposition of the great arteries. The diagnosis in 1 of the cases, in which the anomalous connection was partial, was established only with echocardiography, without invasive procedures that would represent risk for the patient; in the other case, in which the anomalous connection was total, the malformation was only evidenced with catheterization. The patients underwent surgery for anatomical correction of the heart disease. Only 1 patient had a good outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess whether coronary stenting in diabetic patients provides in-hospital results and clinical evolution similar to those in nondiabetic patients. METHODS From July '97 to April '99 we performed coronary stent implantation in 386 patients with coronary heart disease, who were divided into two groups: diabetic patients and nondiabetic patients. The in-hospital results and the clinical evolution of each group were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS The nondiabetic group comprised 305 (79%) patients and the diabetic group 81 (21%) patients. Basic clinical and angiographic characteristics were similar. Angiographic success was in diabetics = 96.6% vs in nondiabetics = 97.9% (p=ns). Among the major complications in the in-hospital phase, the rate of myocardial infarction was higher in the diabetic group (7.4% vs 1.9%) (p=0.022). In the follow-up, a favorable and homogeneous evolution occurred in regard to asymptomatic patients, myocardial infarction, and death in the groups. A greater need for revascularization, however, existed in the diabetic patients (15% vs 2.4%, p<0.001). CONCLUSION Coronary stenting in diabetic patients is an efficient procedure, with a high angiographic and clinical success rate similar to that in nondiabetic patients. Diabetic patients, however, had a higher incidence of in-hospital myocardial infarction and a greater need for additional myocardial revascularization.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate long-term clinical follow-up and echocardiographic data on pregnant patients with mitral stenosis who underwent percutaneous mitral valvuloplasty (PMV) in our center and the development of their infants. PMV has proven to be an effective alternative to treat pregnant patients with mitral stenosis. However, long-term outcome of these patients, as well as the potential harmful effects caused by radiation on their infants, still awaits to be determined. From January 1988 to February 1999, 30 pregnant women (mean gestational duration, 24.95 +/- 5.59 weeks) underwent PMV. Twenty-three (77%) were subsequently followed by a medical interview during 5.33 +/- 3.12 years. Clinical variables such as NYHA functional class (FC), the need of a repeat PMV or surgical procedure, the presence of embolic events, and mortality rate were evaluated during follow-up. Mitral valve area, mean transmitral gradient, and the presence of mitral regurgitation were also assessed by Doppler echocardiography. Clinical data on the development of the infants were obtained from the assistant pediatricians. All patients were in NYHA FC III or IV before the procedure. During follow-up, 91% of them were in FC I and II. Two patients (9%) who had remained in FC III underwent a repeat successful PMV; no further surgery was required. There were no embolic events or death related to the procedure. Echocardiography showed an initial increase in mitral valve area from 1.14 +/- 0.22 cm(2) to 2.01 +/- 0.21 cm+/- (P < 0.0001). During long-term follow-up, it decreased to a mean of 1.75 +/- 0.24 cm(2) (P < 0. 0001). Initial transmitral valve gradient decreased from 17.73 +/- 4. 56 mm Hg to 5.91 +/- 1.80 mm Hg (P = 0.0001) and 8.95 +/- 3.58 (P = 0.002) during long-term follow-up. Twenty one children (96%), aged 4. 91 +/- 2.8 years, showed normal growth and development, and no clinical abnormalities were observed. These favorable long-term results suggests PVM to be the procedure of choice to treat pregnant women with mitral stenosis who remain in FC III or IV despite adequate medical therapy. No harmful effects due to the use of radiation were observed in the children.

Abstract
We reported two cases of patients that underwent left internal mammary (LIMA)-coronary bypass graft and developed recurrent myocardial ischemia in the follow-up period caused by stenosis in the subclavian artery. The angiography showed retrograde flow from the left anterior descending artery to subclavian artery. After initial dilatation with a conventional angioplasty balloon catheter, we implanted Palmaz-Schatz Stents, achieving an excellent final result. Our finding suggest that Stent implantation is a safe and effective procedure, and provides an alternative to other forms of revascularization for the treatment of this disorder.

Abstract
A 56-year-old female patient underwent myocardial revascularization with three saphenous bypass grafts. One month after surgery she had an acute myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock and was treated with a Palmaz-Schatz stent implantation in the left main coronary artery (that was occluded) and a PTCA of the graft to the right coronary artery. The in hospital outcome was uneventful and angiographic study after six months showed no restenosis and important improvement in the left ventricular function.

Abstract
PURPOSE To find out new subjects that could be useful to select patients between 9 and 12 points, according to Block's Criteria, to mitral balloon valvotomy. METHODS One hundred and forty patients underwent mitral balloon valvotomy. Among them, 29 (21%) had between 9 and 12 points. These patients were divided into two groups: group A-patients with mitral valve area > or = 1.5cm2, immediately after balloon valvotomy and in the follow-up period; group B-patients with mitral valve area < 1.5cm2 immediately after or during the follow-up period, patients with severe mitral regurgitation after the procedure and patients who died in the follow-up period. All patients were analyzed by echocardiographic relation criteria (ERC): calcification + subvalvar disease/thickness + mobility. Each one was quantified from 1 to 4 points according to the degree of valvular disease. RESULTS Group A was composed of 17 (51%) and group B 12 (41%) patients. The variables age, sex, previous mitral commissurotomy and atrial fibrillation did not show difference between groups. In group A mitral valve area (cm2) increased from 1.15 +/- 0.25 to 1.97 +/- 0.26 (p < 0.00001) keeping stable during the follow-up period. In group B percutaneous mitral balloon valvotomy resulted in an increase from 1.26 +/- 0.19 to 1.77 +/- 0.16 (p < 0.00001), however, there was an important decrease in the follow-up period to 1.34 +/- 0.15 (p < 0.00001). The ERC showed that all group A patients had a relation < 1. However, in group B, 10 patients (83%), the relation was > or = 1, and in only 2 patients (17%) was < 1 (p < 0.00001). CONCLUSION The group of patients between 9 and 12 points in the Block's criteria is heterogenic, therefore, each case might be evaluated individually and the echocardiographic relation criteria should be used in order to select these patients to the procedure.

Abstract
Percutaneous balloon mitral valvotomy (BMV) is an alternative therapeutic method for patients with mitral stenosis. We studied 62 patients (56 females, mean age 36.4 years) who underwent balloon mitral valvotomy. Five patients were pregnant and in New York Heart Association Functional Class IV. Doppler echocardiographic studies were performed prior to the procedure, and at 7 days, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months after the procedure. We studied the following parameters: echo-score by the sum of valvular mobility, thickening, and calcification, and subvalvular disease, graded from 1 to 4; and mitral valve area (MVA) and mitral pressure gradient (MPG) by Doppler echocardiography. The patients were separated into two groups: group I with an echo-score less than or equal to 8 (40 patients), and group II with an echo-score greater than or equal to 9 (22 patients). Mitral valve area and MPG were compared with hemodynamics through the correlation coefficient and linear regression. Comparison between groups I and II was performed using the unpaired Student's t-test. Follow-up of MVA and MPG was analyzed by analysis of variance. The Student's t-test did not show any significant difference between MVA and MPG before balloon mitral valvotomy. There was significant decrease of MVA in group II (P less than 0.01) in the last three studies. There was significant increase in MPG in group II (P less than 0.01) in every postvalvotomy study. The analysis of variance of group I showed statistical increase of the MVA, and significant decrease of the MPG after BMV. The analysis of variance of group II showed significant increase in MVA and significant decrease in MPG between the pre- and the first postvalvotomy study. There was significant decrease (P less than 0.01) in MVA, and increase in MPG in the three postvalvotomy studies. Complications included mitral regurgitation, residual interatrial communication, pericardial effusion due to an atrial wall perforation, and peripheral embolization. Atrial fibrillation did not significantly alter the results of BMV. Results were considered positive when MVA was greater than 1.5 cm 2 and area increase was greater than 25%. Patients with an echo-score less than or equal to 8 (group I) benefit from BMV, with a positive predictive value greater than 78%. In pregnant patients the symptomatology was alleviated by BMV, without any signs of fetal compromise.

Abstract
The authors report on three pregnant patients with mitral stenosis with heart failure in functional class IV (NYHA) unresponsive to clinical treatment. They were submitted to mitral valvuloplasty, with significant clinical improvement, and were, hence, asymptomatic. Despite the small number of cases, it may be concluded that the procedure is simple and safe, which can be attested by the successful results.
