Journal ArticleDOI

Cardiac Toxicity of Sunitinib and Sorafenib in Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma

TL;DR: The observations indicate that cardiac damage from TKI treatment is a largely underestimated phenomenon but is manageable if patients have careful cardiovascular monitoring and cardiac treatment at the first signs of myocardial damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

The salvage potential of coronary sinus interventions: meta-analysis and pathophysiologic consequences ☆

TL;DR: The use of intermittent coronary sinus occlusion and intermittent coronary Sinus Occlusion in combination with retroperfusion of arterial blood significantly decreases ischemic damage during coronary occlusions and exhibits no significant profit in salvaging the ischeactic myocardium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of high-grade stenoses with multislice computed tomography in heart transplant patients.

TL;DR: MSCT with its high specificity and high negative predictive value allows the exclusion of significant coronary artery vasculopathy in evaluable patients from the clinical point of view, this might spare additional invasive coronary angiography in heart transplant patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transplant coronary artery disease: Incidence, progression and interventional revascularization.

TL;DR: Whereas coronary artery disease is found in rare cases within the first 5 years after heart transplantation, the incidence grows in exponential manner after this period, mid-term follow-up after coronary intervention exhibit restenosis-rates which are similar to the ones of other high risk patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of accelerated ventricular tachyarrhythmias on mortality in patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy.

TL;DR: Ventricular ATP with arrhythmia acceleration and subsequent shock delivery is a frequent and serious complication of ICD therapy that predominantly occurs in patients with reduced left ventricular function and was associated with increased all-cause mortality.
