Discover the case of an 82-year-old female with cardiovascular risk factors including hypertension and diabetes (managed with oral antidiabetics), permanent non-valvular atrial fibrillation, who presented with recurrent episodes of epistaxis while on anticoagulants...

Study the case of an 86-year-old male patient with progressive NYHA III dyspnoea, HTN, AF and previous stroke who presented with HF, LVEF 61 %, severe atrial dilatation, severe AS, mild MR and severely calcified tricuspid aortic valve with a large annulus suitable for transfemoral TAVI.

This case report demonstrates, for the first time, the feasibility of mitral TEER with a robotic-assisted approach, using the Abbott MitraClip G4 system, potentially paving the way for future applications in structural heart and endovascular interventions.

A 38-year-old man with class III angina was referred for coronary angiography following a positive myocardial perfusion scan. The angiogram showed functionally occluded PDA as well as significant disease in the proximal, mid, and distal RCA. After wiring and predilating PDA, TIMI-III flow in PDA was...

Observe this TAVI case featuring pulseless electrical activity due to an unforeseen acute occlusion of the right coronary artery, and discover the strategies employed to address and resolve this critical complication.

A 57-year-old man with hypertension and dyslipidemia as cardiovascular risk factors was admitted for stable angina for months. His symptoms were not controlled despite maximal medical treatment (beta-blockers, nitrates, aspirin, statins). Angios revealed multivessel disease. How would you manage this case?

An 88-year-old lady was admitted with resistant pulmonary oedema, a massively calcified aortic valve, renal failure and no transfemoral access option. How would you treat this patient?
