Case report: Multimodal imaging diagnosis of a giant coronary artery fistula: A report of two cases
Being a very rare cardiac disease, most cases of coronary artery fistula (CAF) are genetic. Complications such as coronary steal syndrome, myocardial infarction, heart failure, or tamponade can manifest following the abnormal communication that the fistula creates between the coronary arteries and…

Transcatheter closure of ruptured sinus of Valsalva: A report of first five cases in Tehran Heart Center, Iran
Abstract Ruptured sinus of Valsalva (RSOV) is a potentially lethal lesion requiring prompt intervention. Transcatheter Closure of RSOV is a novel alternative to the standard treatment, which is open‐heart surgery. In this case series, we have reported our center's first five cases of RSOV patients…

Transcatheter Closure of Patent Ductus Arteriosus: Initial Study on Echocardiographic Estimation of Device Size
Background: Transcatheter occlusion of the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a minimally invasive treatment. The appropriate device size is chosen based on the angiographic measurement of the PDA. The current study aimed to assess the relationship between the transthoracic echocardiographic (TTE)…

Relationship between Body Mass Index and Outcome of Elective Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Background: Studies have shown controversial effects of obesity on major adverse cardiac events (MACE) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We sought to investigate the impact of the body mass index (BMI) on the mid-term outcome following successful PCI. Methods: Between March 2006 and…

One-Year Outcome of Everolimus-Eluting Stents versus Biolimus-Eluting Stents in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Background: The biolimus-eluting stent (BES), with a biodegradable polymer, has not been previously compared with the everolimus-eluting stent (EES), as a second-generation drug-eluting stent (DES).We sought to compare the 1-year outcome between the PROMUS™ stent (EES type) and the BioMatrix™ stent…

Measurement of Atrial Septal Defect Size: A Comparative Study between Transesophageal Echocardiography and Balloon Occlusive Diameter Method
Background: Transcatheter closure of atrial septal defect secundum (ASD-II) has become an alternative method for surgery. We sought to compare the two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) method for measuring atrial septal defect with balloon occlusive diameter (BOD) in transcatheter…

Success Rate, Procedural Complications and Clinical Outcomes of Coronary Interventions in Octogenarians: a Case-Control Study
Background: Clinical trials of revascularization have routinely under-enrolled elderly subjects. Thus, symptom relief and improved survival might not apply to elderly patients, in whom the risk of mortality and disability from revascularization procedures seems to be high and co-morbidity is more…

Predictors of major adverse cardiac events following elective stenting of large coronary arteries
Objective: Diameter of the affected coronary artery is an important predictor of restenosis and need for revascularization. In the present study, we investigated the frequency and potential risk factors for major adverse cardiac events following elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and…

Impact of Side-Branch Flow in Coronary Bifurcation Intervention
Background: The optimal strategy in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary artery bifurcation lesions has yet to be agreed upon. We compared a strategy for stenting the main vessel to provide a complete perfusion flow in the side branch, namely thrombolysis in myocardial infarction…

Trends in Transcatheter Versus Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement Outcomes in Patients With Low‐Surgical Risk: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Trials
Background Limited data exist on long‐term outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). This meta‐analysis aims to elucidate outcome trends following TAVR versus SAVR in patients with severe aortic stenosis and low‐surgical risk. Methods…
