TL;DR: Investigation of the safety and medium-term durability of an adjustable mitral annuloplasty ring in patients undergoing surgery for mitral valve regurgitation found it safe and durable in all patients who reached 2 years follow-up.

TL;DR: A 68-year-old female who suffered extensive complications after severe myocardial infarction in the circumflex (CX) territory presented with a covered right ventricular free wall rupture (FWR) which was followed by a rupture of the left posterior wall ten days later.

TL;DR: In this article, the safety, optimal administration and benefits of contemporary heart failure therapy in patients after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation were compared between patients who received medical therapy including an angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) and 83 patients who did not receive an ARNI.

TL;DR: Using a surgical telemanipulation system that is operated from a master console, endoscopic coronary artery bypass grafting and mitral valve repair can be performed with high precision.

TL;DR: At long-term follow up the Sorin Freedom SOLO bioprosthesis was associated with favourable hemodynamic results and survival, and Freedom from SVD was not superior to that occurring with stentedBioprostheses.
