    Abstract Coronary angiography demonstrated severe distal left main disease in a patient with heavy concentric calcification extending into the left anterior descending and left circumflex arteries. Rotational atherectomy and lithotripsy were used to debulk plaque so that stenting could be performed.

    Abstract Introduction: Infective Endocarditis (IE) is a rare, life-threatening infection of the endocardium with multisystem effects. Culprit microorganisms derived from different niches circulate through the bloodstream and attach to the endocardium, particularly the heart valves. This study aimed to investigate culprit microorganisms among a cross-sectional cohort of IE patients, their associated factors, and to explore the potential relationship to the oral microbiome.
    Methods: In this observational study, we undertook a cross-sectional analysis of 392 medical records from patients diagnosed with IE. The primary outcome of this study was to analyse the association between the IE culprit microorganisms and the underlying anatomical types of IE (native valve (NVE), prosthetic valve (PVE), or cardiac device-related (CDE)). Secondary outcomes encompassed a comparative analysis of additional factors, including: the treatment approaches for IE, and the categorisation of blood cultures, extending to both genus and species levels. Additionally, we cross-referenced and compared the species-level identification of IE bacteraemia outcome measures with data from the expanded Human Oral Microbiome Database (eHOMD).
    Results: A culprit microorganism was identified in 299 (76.28%) case participants. Staphylococcal infections were the most common (
    Conclusions: This study demonstrated that IE patients with a history of stroke, smoking, intravenous drug use, or dialysis were more likely to be infected with

    Abstract Background: The Navitor (THV) is the latest iteration of the Portico self-expanding valve system. Early prospective studies have shown promising outcomes, however there is a lack of complementary 'real-world' data.
    Aims: To assess early safety and efficacy outcomes of the Navitor Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) using registry data from six high-volume UK TAVR centers.
    Methods: Demographic, procedural and in-hospital outcome data were retrieved from six UK centers. The primary safety end-point was 30-day mortality. Primary efficacy end-points were procedural success, mean aortic gradient, and ≥moderate paravalvular leak (PVL). Secondary endpoints included rates of new pacemaker implantation (PPM), stroke and vascular injury.
    Results: 574 patients (Mean age 83.4 years; 54.5% female) underwent Navitor TAVR between January 2020 and May 2023. The 30-day mortality in this patient cohort was 1.6%. Procedural success was 98.1%, mean echo-derived gradient post-TAVR was 7.7±4.8mmHg (95% CI [7.2, 8.3], p<0.001) and 5.1% of patients had ≥moderate PVL (p̂=0.051, 95% CI [0.035, 0.073, p<0.001). New PPM to discharge was required in 11% (p̂ =0.119, 95% CI [0.088, 0.158], p<0.001), stroke occurred in 1.2% of patients (p̂= 0.017, 95% CI [0.006, 0.036], p<0.001) and significant vascular injury in 1.6% (p̂= 0.014, 95% CI [0.005, 0.032], p<0.001).
    Conclusion: Early procedural outcomes with Navitor TAVR compare favorably to new generation THVs. Procedural success was high with a low incidence of complications.

    Abstract The combination of severe coronary disease, significant valvular dysfunction and impaired ventricular function pose patients at a very high procedural risk. In addition, the presence of left ventricular thrombus can complicate ventricular instrumentation increasing embolic risk. Contemporary techniques and devices have now become available to overcome these challenges to reduce risk and allow safer, more efficient procedures. We describe the feasibility of using Impella CP™ with cerebral protection to facilitate complete revascularisation and percutaneous valve replacement in a patient with critical aortic stenosis, severe left ventricular (LV) impairment, LV thrombus and a calcified left main stem disease.

    Abstract Mitral interventions remain technically challenging owing to the anatomical complexity and heterogeneity of mitral pathologies. As such, multi-disciplinary pre-procedural planning assisted by advanced cardiac imaging is pivotal to successful outcomes. Modern imaging techniques offer accurate 3D renderings of cardiac anatomy; however, users are required to derive a spatial understanding of complex mitral pathologies from a 2D projection thus generating an 'imaging gap' which limits procedural planning. Physical mitral modelling using 3D printing has the potential to bridge this gap and is increasingly being employed in conjunction with other transformative technologies to assess feasibility of intervention, direct prosthesis choice and avoid complications. Such platforms have also shown value in training and patient education. Despite important limitations, the pace of innovation and synergistic integration with other technologies is likely to ensure that 3D printing assumes a central role in the journey towards delivering personalised care for patients undergoing mitral valve interventions.

    Abstract Background: Post-infarction ventricular septal defect (PIVSD) carries a very poor prognosis. Surgical repair offers reasonable outcomes in patients who survive the initial healing period. Percutaneous device implantation remains a potentially effective earlier alternative.
    Methods and results: From March 2018 to May 2022, 11 trans-arterial PIVSD closures were attempted in 9 patients from two centers (aged 67.2 ± 11.1 years; 77.8% male). Two patients had a second procedure. Myocardial infarction was anterior in four patients (44.5%) and inferior in five cases (55.5%). Devices were successfully implanted in all patients. There were no major immediate procedural complications. Immediate shunt grade postprocedure was significant (11.1%), minimal (77.8%), or none (11.1%). Median length of stay after the procedure was 14.8 days. Five patients (55%) survived to discharge and were followed up for a median of 605 days, during which time no additional patients died.
    Conclusion: Single arterial access for percutaneous closure of PIVSD is a good option for these extremely high-risk patients, in the era of effective large-bore arterial access closure. Mortality remains high, but patients who survive to discharge do well in the longer term.
