Decision-making in elderly patients with severe aortic stenosis: why are so many denied surgery?
Bernard Iung,Agnès Cachier,Gabriel Baron,David Messika-Zeitoun,François Delahaye,Pilar Tornos,Christa Gohlke-Bärwolf,Eric Boersma,Philippe Ravaud,Alec Vahanian +9 more
TL;DR: Surgery was denied in 33% of elderly patients with severe, symptomatic AS, and older age and LV dysfunction were the most striking characteristics of patients who were denied surgery, whereas comorbidity played a less important role.
Journal ArticleDOI
Echocardiographic Evaluation of the Mitral Valve Area Before and After Percutaneous Mitral Commissurotomy: The Pressure Half-time Method Revisited
David Messika-Zeitoun,Anouk Meizels,Agnès Cachier,Aliosha Scheuble,Olivier Fondard,Eric Brochet,Bertrand Cormier,Bernard Iung,Alec Vahanian +8 more
TL;DR: For MVA assessment, the PHT method should be used cautiously even before percutaneous mitral commissurotomy, especially in older patients or those in atrial fibrillation, which can be useful in difficult cases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of mitral valve area by the proximal isovelocity surface area method in mitral stenosis: Could it be simplified?
David Messika-Zeitoun,Agnès Cachier,Eric Brochet,Bertrand Cormier,Bernard Iung,Alec Vahanian +5 more
TL;DR: The angle formed by the mitral leaflet only slightly changes in between patients and use of a fixed angle value of 100 degrees provides an accurate estimation of the MVA by the PISA method in patients with MS.
Journal ArticleDOI
An unusual cause of pacemaker-induced severe tricuspid regurgitation
A Loupy,David Messika-Zeitoun,Agnès Cachier,Dominique Himbert,Eric Brochet,B Lung,Alec Vahanian +6 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis is that the aortic valve surgery has been responsible for conformational changes between cardiac cavities, tricuspid valve and PM leads resulting in a severe TR.
Journal ArticleDOI
Actual management of patients with asymptomatic aortic valve disease: how practice fits with guidelines.
Bernard Iung,David Messika-Zeitoun,Agnès Cachier,François Delahaye,Gabriel Baron,Pilar Tornos,Christa Gohlke-Bärwolf,Eric Boersma,Philippe Ravaud,Alec Vahanian +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the Euro Heart Survey was designed to evaluate practices in the management of severe, isolated, and asymptomatic aortic valve disease (AS and AR), and the decision to operate was frequently based on class IIb recommendations in patients with AS.
