- Long Term Follow-Up of Drug Eluting Versus Bare Metal Stents in the Treatment of Saphenous Vein Graft Lesions(2013) YBARRA, Luiz F.; RIBEIRO, Henrique B.; POZETTI, Antonio H.; CAMPOS, Carlos A.; ESPER, Rodrigo B.; LEMOS, Pedro A.; LOPES, Augusto C.; KALIL-FILHO, Roberto; ELLIS, Stephen G.; RIBEIRO, Expedito E.Introduction: The safety and effectiveness of drug-eluting stent (DES) compared with bare metal stents (BMS) for the treatment of saphenous vein graft (SVG) disease is controversial, especially because of the lack of long-term follow-up. The aim of this study was to address the late outcome of DES versus BMS for the treatment of SVG lesions. Methods: A matched, case-control study included 82 patients in each group. Patients groups were matched by gender, age, clinical presentation, and diabetes. The primary study end point was occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Secondary end points included death, cardiac death, myocardial infarction (MI), and target vessel revascularization (TVR). Results: Clinical and angiographic characteristics were similar between the groups. At 6 months, TVR (hazard ratio [HR] 6.12, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.39 to 26.93, P = 0.05), and MACE (HR 2.54, 95% CI 1.08 to 5.98, P = 0.04) were higher in the BMS group. At 4 years the risks of MI (P = 0.21), TVR (P = 0.99), and MACE (P = 0.21) were similar between both groups. However, the rates of death (HR 2.74, 95% CI 1.11 to 6.74, P = 0.04) and cardiac death (HR 4.26, 95% CI 1.59 to 11.35, P = 0.01) were significantly higher in the BMS group. Conclusions: These results suggest that the use of DES compared with BMS in the treatment of SVG lesions reduces TVR and MACE at 6 months of follow-up, a benefit that was lost over the next 3-4 years.

- Improvement of renal function after transcatheter aortic valve replacement in patients with chronic kidney disease(2021) SILVA, Michel V. Lemes da; NUNES FILHO, Antonio C. B.; ROSA, Vitor E. E.; CAIXETA, Adriano; LEMOS NETO, Pedro A.; RIBEIRO, Henrique B.; ALMEIDA, Breno O.; MARIANI JR., Jose; CAMPOS, Carlos M.; ABIZAID, Alexandre A. C.; MANGIONE, Jose A.; SAMPAIO, Roney O.; CARAMORI, Paulo; SARMENTO-LEITE, Rogerio; TARASOUTCHI, Flavio; FRANKEN, Marcelo; BRITO JR., Fabio S. deBackground Chronic kidney disease is commonly found in patients with aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and has marked impact in their prognosis. It has been shown however that TAVR may improve renal function by alleviating the hemodynamic barrier imposed by AS. Nevertheless, the predictors of and clinical consequences of renal function improvement are not well established. Our aim was to assess the predictors of improvement of renal function after TAVR. Methods The present work is an analysis of the Brazilian Registry of TAVR, a national non-randomized prospective study with 22 Brazilian centers. Patients with baseline renal dysfunction (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] < 60mL/min/1.73m(2)) were stratified according to renal function after TAVR: increase >10% in eGFR were classified as TAVR induced renal function improvement (TIRFI); decrease > 10% in eGFR were classified as acute kidney injury (AKI) and stable renal function (neither criteria). Results A total of 819 consecutive patients with symptomatic severe AS were included. Of these, baseline renal dysfunction (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] < 60mL/min/1.73m(2)) was present in 577 (70%) patients. Considering variance in renal function between baseline and at discharge after TAVR procedure, TIRFI was seen in 197 (34.1%) patients, AKI in 203 (35.2%), and stable renal function in 177 (30.7%). The independent predictors of TIRFI were: absence of coronary artery disease (OR: 0.69; 95% CI 0.48-0.98; P = 0.039) and lower baseline eGFR (OR: 0.98; 95% CI 0.97-1.00; P = 0.039). There was no significant difference in 30-day and 1-year all-cause mortality between patients with stable renal function or TIRFI. Nonetheless, individuals that had AKI after TAVR presented higher mortality compared with TIRFI and stable renal function groups (29.3% vs. 15.4% vs. 9.5%, respectively; p < 0.001). Conclusions TIRFI was frequently found among baseline impaired renal function individuals but was not associated with improved 1-year outcomes.
- Valve-in-Valve Challenges: How to Avoid Coronary Obstruction(2019) BERNARDI, Fernando L. M.; DVIR, Danny; RODES-CABAU, Josep; RIBEIRO, Henrique B.Coronary obstruction is a rare but life-threatening complication in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Aortic valve-in-valve (VIV) procedures to treat failed surgical bioprosthesis is associated with similar to 6-fold higher risk for coronary obstruction in certain situations. The primary mechanism consists in the occlusion of the coronary ostium by the dislodged leaflet from the bioprosthesis after deployment of the transcatheter heart valve (THV), which most commonly occurs during the index procedure, but in up to 1/3 of cases a delayed presentation ensues. The clinical presentation consists of severe hypotension and ECG changes in most of the patients, with very high mortality rates. Therefore, pre-procedural multi-slice computed tomography is crucial for identifying high-risk features, such as low coronary heights, shallow sinuses of Valsalva, and short virtual THV to coronary ostial distance (VTC). Also, some models of surgical bioprosthesis present an increased risk for this dreadful complication. Preemptive protective strategies with coronary wiring, with or without placement of an undeployed stent, could mitigate the risks associated with this complication in high-risk patients, even though studies are lacking. This review aims to take a clinical perspective on the challenges in avoiding this complication during VIV procedures.
- Transcatheter Valve-in-Valve Procedures for Bioprosthetic Valve Dysfunction in Patients With Rheumatic vs. Non-Rheumatic Valvular Heart Disease(2021) LOPES, Mariana Pezzute; ROSA, Vitor Emer Egypto; PALMA, Jose Honorio; VIEIRA, Marcelo Luiz Campos; FERNANDES, Joao Ricardo Cordeiro; SANTIS, Antonio de; SPINA, Guilherme Sobreira; FONSECA, Rafael de Jesus; MARCHI, Mauricio F. de Sa; ABIZAID, Alexandre; BRITO, Fabio Sandoli de; TARASOUTCHI, Flavio; SAMPAIO, Roney Orismar; RIBEIRO, Henrique BarbosaBackground: Bioprosthetic heart valve has limited durability and lower long-term performance especially in rheumatic heart disease (RHD) patients that are often subject to multiple redo operations. Minimally invasive procedures, such as transcatheter valve-in-valve (ViV) implantation, may offer an attractive alternative, although data is lacking. The aim of this study was to evaluate the baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes in rheumatic vs. non-rheumatic patients undergoing ViV procedures for severe bioprosthetic valve dysfunction. Methods: Single center, prospective study, including consecutive patients undergoing transcatheter ViV implantation in aortic, mitral and tricuspid position, from May 2015 to September 2020. RHD was defined according to clinical history, previous echocardiographic and surgical findings. Results: Among 106 patients included, 69 had rheumatic etiology and 37 were non-rheumatic. Rheumatic patients had higher incidence of female sex (73.9 vs. 43.2%, respectively; p = 0.004), atrial fibrillation (82.6 vs. 45.9%, respectively; p < 0.001), and 2 or more prior surgeries (68.1 vs. 32.4%, respectively; p = 0.001). Although, device success was similar between groups (75.4 vs. 89.2% in rheumatic vs. non-rheumatic, respectively; p = 0.148), there was a trend toward higher 30-day mortality rates in the rheumatic patients (21.7 vs. 5.4%, respectively; p = 0.057). Still, at median followup of 20.7 [5.1-30.4] months, cumulative mortality was similar between both groups (p = 0.779). Conclusion: Transcatheter ViV implantation is an acceptable alternative to redo operations in the treatment of patients with RHD and severe bioprosthetic valve dysfunction. Despite similar device success rates, rheumatic patients present higher 30 day mortality rates with good mid-term clinical outcomes. Future studies with a larger number of patients and follow-up are still warranted, to firmly conclude on the role transcatheter ViV procedures in the RHD population.
- Novel strategies in aortic valve-in-valve therapy including bioprosthetic valve fracture and BASILICA(2018) DVIR, Danny; KHAN, Jaffar; KORNOWSKI, Ran; KOMATSU, Ikki; CHHATRIWALLA, Adnan; MACKENSEN, G. Burkhard; SIMONATO, Matheus; RIBEIRO, Henrique; WOOD, David; LEIPSIC, Jonathon; WEBB, John; MYLOTTE, DarrenAn ageing population and increased utilisation of tissue valves in younger patients imply that the number of patients receiving transcatheter aortic valve implantation within failed bioprostheses will continue to increase. There are two major adverse events associated with aortic valve-in-valve procedures that may temper the enthusiasm for these appealing interventions. Residual stenosis is the ""Achilles' heel"" of aortic valve-in-valve, while coronary obstruction is an uncommon but life-threatening adverse event. Prevention of these adverse events is essential. Emerging tools and techniques enable operators to manipulate existing devices and to implant new ones inside them safely. Considering the available evidence, it seems that bioprosthetic valve ring fracture and bioprosthetic or native aortic scallop intentional laceration to prevent iatrogenic coronary artery obstruction (BASILICA) may enable some solution. Until we have prosthetic valves that are both very durable and non-thrombogenic, we can expect that techniques and tools chosen to treat failed bioprosthetic valves effectively will continue to be designed and utilised.
- Renin-Angiotensin System Inhibition Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement(2019) RODRIGUEZ-GABELLA, Tania; CATALA, Pablo; MUNOZ-GARCIA, Antonio J.; NOMBELA-FRANCO, Luis; VALLE, Raquel Del; GUTIERREZ, Enrique; REGUEIRO, Ander; JIMENEZ-DIAZ, Victor A.; RIBEIRO, Henrique B.; RIVERO, Fernando; FERNANDEZ-DIAZ, Jose Antonio; PIBAROT, Philippe; ALONSO-BRIALES, Juan H.; TIRADO-CONTE, Gabriela; MORIS, Cesar; HOYO, Felipe Diez Del; JIMENEZ-BRITEZ, Gustavo; ZADERENKO, Nicolas; ALFONSO, Fernando; GOMEZ, Itziar; CARRASCO-MORALEJA, Manuel; RODES-CABAU, Josep; CALVAR, J. Alberto San Roman; AMAT-SANTOS, Ignacio J.BACKGROUND Several studies have demonstrated the benefits of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in patients with aortic stenosis, but the presence of persistent fibrosis and myocardial hypertrophy has been related to worse prognosis. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to explore the potential benefits of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors on left ventricular remodeling and major clinical outcomes following successful transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). METHODS Patients from 10 institutions with severe aortic stenosis who underwent TAVR between August 2007 and August 2017 were included. All baseline data were prospectively recorded, and pre-specified follow-up was performed. Doses and types of RAS inhibitors at discharge were recorded, and matched comparison according to their prescription at discharge was performed. RESULTS A total of 2,785 patients were included. Patients treated with RAS inhibitors (n = 1,622) presented similar surgical risk scores but a higher rate of all cardiovascular risk factors, coronary disease, and myocardial infarction. After adjustment for these baseline differences, reduction of left ventricular volumes and hypertrophy was greater and cardiovascular mortality at 3-year follow-up was lower (odds ratio: 0.59; 95% confidence interval: 0.41 to 0.87; p = 0.007) in patients treated with RAS inhibitors. Moreover, RAS inhibitors demonstrated a global cardiovascular protective effect with significantly lower rates of new-onset atrial fibrillation, cerebrovascular events, and readmissions. CONCLUSIONS Post-TAVR RAS inhibitors are associated with lower cardiac mortality at 3-year follow-up and offer a global cardiovascular protective effect that might be partially explained by a positive left ventricular remodeling. An ongoing randomized trial will help confirm these hypothesis-generating findings.

- Incidence, predictors, and clinical outcomes of coronary obstruction following transcatheter aortic valve replacement for degenerative bioprosthetic surgical valves: insights from the VIVID registry(2018) RIBEIRO, Henrique B.; RODES-CABAU, Josep; BLANKE, Philipp; LEIPSIC, Jonathon; PARK, Jong Kwan; BAPAT, Vinayak; MAKKAR, Raj; SIMONATO, Matheus; BARBANTI, Marco; SCHOFER, Joachim; BLEIZIFFER, Sabine; LATIB, Azeem; HILDICK-SMITH, David; PRESBITERO, Patrizia; WINDECKER, Stephan; NAPODANO, Massimo; CERILLO, Alfredo G.; ABDEL-WAHAB, Mohamed; TCHETCHE, Didier; FIORINA, Claudia; SINNING, Jan-Malte; COHEN, Mauricio G.; GUERRERO, Mayra E.; WHISENANT, Brian; NIETLISPACH, Fabian; PALMA, Jose Honorio; NOMBELA-FRANCO, Luis; WEGER, Arend de; KASS, Malek; BRITO JR., Fabio Sandoli de; LEMOS, Pedro A.; KORNOWSKI, Ran; WEBB, John; DVIR, DannyAims There are limited data on coronary obstruction following transcatheter valve-in-valve (ViV) implantation inside failed aortic bioprostheses. The objectives of this study were to determine the incidence, predictors, and clinical outcomes of coronary obstruction in transcatheter ViV procedures. Methods and results A total of 1612 aortic procedures from the Valve-in-Valve International Data (VIVID) Registry were evaluated. Data were subject to centralized blinded corelab computed tomography (CT) analysis in a subset of patients. The virtual transcatheter valve to coronary ostium distance (VTC) was determined. A total of 37 patients (2.3%) had clinically evident coronary obstruction. Baseline clinical characteristics in the coronary obstruction patients were similar to controls. Coronary obstruction was more common in stented bioprostheses with externally mounted leaflets or stentless bioprostheses than in stented with internally mounted leaflets bioprostheses (6.1% vs. 3.7% vs. 0.8%, respectively; P < 0.001). CT measurements were obtained in 20 (54%) and 90 (5.4%) of patients with and without coronary obstruction, respectively. VTC distance was shorter in coronary obstruction patients in relation to controls (3.24 +/- 2.22 vs. 6.30 +/- 2.34, respectively; P < 0.001). Using multivariable analysis, the use of a stentless or stented bioprosthesis with externally mounted leaflets [odds ratio (OR): 7.67; 95% confidence interval (CI): 3.14-18.7; P < 0.001] associated with coronary obstruction for the global population. In a second model with CT data, a shorter VTC distance predicted this complication (OR: 0.22 per 1mm increase; 95% CI: 0.09-0.51; P < 0.001), with an optimal cut-off level of 4mm (area under the curve: 0.943; P < 0.001). Coronary obstruction was associated with a high 30-day mortality (52.9% vs. 3.9% in the controls, respectively; P < 0.001). Conclusion Coronary obstruction following aortic ViV procedures is a life-threatening complication that occurred more frequently in patients with prior stentless or stented bioprostheses with externally mounted leaflets and in those with a short VTC.
- Recent Developments and Current Status of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Practice in Latin America - the WRITTEN LATAM Study(2022) BERNARDI, Fernando Luiz de Melo; RIBEIRO, Henrique Barbosa; NOMBELA-FRANCO, Luis; CERRATO, Enrico; MALUENDA, Gabriel; NAZIF, Tamim; LEMOS, Pedro Alves; SZTEJFMAN, Matias; LAMELAS, Pablo; ECHEVERRI, Dario; LOPES, Marcelo Antonio Cartaxo Queiroga; BRITO, Fabio Sandoli de; ABIZAID, Alexandre A.; MANGIONE, Jose A.; ELTCHANINOFF, Helene; SONDERGAARD, Lars; RODES-CABAU, JosepBackground: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a worldwide adopted procedure with rapidly evolving practices. Regional and temporal variations are expected to be found. Objective: To compare TAVR practice in Latin America with that around the world and to assess its changes in Latin America from 2015 to 2020. Methods: A survey was applied to global TAVR centers between March and September 2015, and again to Latin-American centers between July 2019 and January 2020. The survey consisted of questions addressing: i) center's general information; ii) pre-TAVR evaluation; iii) procedural techniques; iv) post-TAVR management; v) follow-up. Answers from the 2015 survey of Latin-American centers (LATAM15) were compared with those of other centers around the world (WORLD15) and with the 2020 updated Latin-American survey (LATAM20). A 5% level of significance was adopted for statistical analysis. Results: 250 centers participated in the 2015 survey (LATAM15=29; WORLD15=221) and 46 in the LATAM20. Combined centers experience accounted for 73 707 procedures, with WORLD15 centers performing, on average, 6- and 3-times more procedures than LATAM15 and LATAM20 centers, respectively. LATAM centers performed less minimalistic TAVR than WORLD15 centers, but there was a significant increase in less invasive procedures after 5 years in Latin-American centers. For postprocedural care, a lower period of telemetry and maintenance of temporary pacing wire, along with less utilization of dual antiplatelet therapy was observed in LATAM20 centers. Conclusion: Despite still having a much lower volume of procedures, many aspects of TAVR practice in Latin-American centers have evolved in recent years, following the trend observed in developed country centers.
- Incidence, Predictor, and Clinical Outcomes of Multiple Resheathing With Self-Expanding Valves During Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement(2021) BERNARDI, Fernando L. M.; RODES-CABAU, Josep; TIRADO-CONTE, Gabriela; SANTOS, Ignacio J. Amat; PLACHTZIK, Claudia; CURA, Fernando; SZTEJFMAN, Matias; MANGIONE, Fernanda M.; TUMELEIRO, Rogerio; ESTEVES, Vinicius Borges Cardozo; MELO, Eduardo Franca Pessoa de; CHAUVET, Alejandro Alcocer; FUCHS, Felipe; SARMENTO-LEITE, Rogerio; MARTINS, Estevao Carvalho de Campos; NOMBELA-FRANCO, Luis; DELGADO-ARANA, Jose Raul; BOCKSCH, Wolfgang; LAMELAS, Pablo; GIULIANI, Carlos; CAMPANHA-BORGES, Diego Carter; MANGIONE, Jose A.; JR, Fabio Sandoli de Brito; ABIZAID, Alexandre C.; RIBEIRO, Henrique B.Background No study has evaluated the impact of the additional manipulation demanded by multiple resheathing (MR) in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement with repositionable self-expanding valves. Methods and Results This study included a real-world, multicenter registry involving 16 centers from Canada, Germany, Latin America, and Spain. All consecutive patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement with the Evolut R, Evolut PRO, and Portico valves were included. Patients were divided according to the number of resheathing: no resheathing, single resheathing (SR), and MR. The primary end point was device success. Secondary outcomes included procedural complications, early safety events, and 1-year mortality. In 1026 patients, the proportion who required SR and MR was 23.9% and 9.3%, respectively. MR was predicted by the use of Portico and moderate/severe aortic regurgitation at baseline (both with P<0.01). Patients undergoing MR had less device success (no resheathing=89.9%, SR=89.8%, and MR=80%; P=0.01), driven by more need for a second prosthesis and device embolization. At 30 days, there were no differences in safety events. At 1 year, more deaths occurred with MR (no resheathing=10.5%, SR=8.0%, and MR=18.8%; P=0.014). After adjusting for baseline differences and center experience by annual volume, MR associated with less device success (odds ratio, 0.42; P=0.003) and increased 1-year mortality (hazard ratio, 2.06; P=0.01). When including only the Evolut R/PRO cases (N=837), MR continued to have less device success (P<0.001) and a trend toward increased mortality (P=0.05). Conclusions Repositioning a self-expanding valve is used in a third of patients, being multiple in approximate to 10%. MR, but not SR, was associated with more device failure and higher 1-year mortality, regardless of the type of valve implanted.
- Transcatheter or Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Severe Aortic Stenosis and Small Aortic Annulus: A Randomized Clinical Trial(2024) RODES-CABAU, Josep; RIBEIRO, Henrique Barbosa; MOHAMMADI, Siamak; SERRA, Vicenc; AL-ATASSI, Talal; INIGUEZ, Andres; VILALTA, Victoria; NOMBELA-FRANCO, Luis; SANCHEZ, Jose Ignacio Saez de Ibarra; AUFFRET, Vincent; FORCILLO, Jessica; CONRADI, Lenard; URENA, Marina; MORIS, Cesar; MUNOZ-GARCIA, Antonio; PARADIS, Jean-Michel; DUMONT, Eric; KALAVROUZIOTIS, Dimitri; POMERANTZEFF, Pablo Maria; ROSA, Vitor Emer Egypto; LOPES, Mariana Pezzute; SUREDA, Carles; DIAZ, Victor Alfonso Jimenez; GIULIANI, Carlos; AVVEDIMENTO, Marisa; PELLETIER-BEAUMONT, Emilie; PIBAROT, PhilippeBACKGROUND: The optimal treatment in patients with severe aortic stenosis and small aortic annulus (SAA) remains to be determined. This study aimed to compare the hemodynamic and clinical outcomes between transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in patients with a SAA. METHODS: This prospective multicenter international randomized trial was performed in 15 university hospitals. Participants were 151 patients with severe aortic stenosis and SAA (mean diameter <23 mm) randomized (1:1) to TAVR (n=77) versus SAVR (n=74). The primary outcome was impaired valve hemodynamics (ie, severe prosthesis patient mismatch or moderate-severe aortic regurgitation) at 60 days as evaluated by Doppler echocardiography and analyzed in a central echocardiography core laboratory. Clinical events were secondary outcomes. RESULTS: The mean age of the participants was 75.5 +/- 5.1 years, with 140 (93%) women, a median Society of Thoracic Surgeons predicted risk of mortality of 2.50% (interquartile range, 1.67%-3.28%), and a median annulus diameter of 21.1 mm (interquartile range, 20.4-22.0 mm). There were no differences between groups in the rate of severe prosthesis patient mismatch (TAVR, 4 [5.6%]; SAVR, 7 [10.3%]; P=0.30) and moderate-severe aortic regurgitation (none in both groups). No differences were found between groups in mortality rate (TAVR, 1 [1.3%]; SAVR, 1 [1.4%]; P=1.00) and stroke (TAVR, 0; SAVR, 2 [2.7%]; P=0.24) at 30 days. After a median follow-up of 2 (interquartile range, 1-4) years, there were no differences between groups in mortality rate (TAVR, 7 [9.1%]; SAVR, 6 [8.1%]; P=0.89), stroke (TAVR, 3 [3.9%]; SAVR, 3 [4.1%]; P=0.95), and cardiac hospitalization (TAVR, 15 [19.5%]; SAVR, 15 [20.3%]; P=0.80). CONCLUSIONS: In patients with severe aortic stenosis and SAA (women in the majority), there was no evidence of superiority of contemporary TAVR versus SAVR in valve hemodynamic results. After a median follow-up of 2 years, there were no differences in clinical outcomes between groups. These findings suggest that the 2 therapies represent a valid alternative for treating patients with severe aortic stenosis and SAA, and treatment selection should likely be individualized according to baseline characteristics, additional anatomical risk factors, and patient preference. However, the results of this study should be interpreted with caution because of the limited sample size leading to an underpowered study, and need to be confirmed in future larger studies.
