Percutaneous transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has turned into the preferred option for patients who have a serious commitment of the aortic valve and a high or prohibitive surgical risk. Results have improved significantly due to advances in devices, techniques and operators´ skills since its first implant in humans in 2002. The implanting technique has evolved towards...

Since the publication in 2016 of studies such as the SMART-STRATEGY1 or the EBC-TWO2 which support the use of a single stent (provisional stenting) like an initial strategy in angioplasties on bifurcations, the technique of two stents like culotte or double-kissing-crush only were reserved for less than 10% of these procedures, in which the secondary vessel was of great caliber, with complex ...

The development of percutaneous coronary interventions has been heady and fascinating. However, any attempt at summarizing its history is fraught with risk of oversimplification and omission. Having had the opportunity to interact with pioneers who personally inspired me, makes me reflect about a pattern in the process involving novel ideas followed by systematic development. Having been born...
The denaturation of the medical consultation
Alendro O Palacios
The medical consultation is based on the dialogue between the patient and a trained medical professional. The patient’s participation must be stimulated and each comment, indication or study requested must be justified, as the indication is not an order but a qualified recommendation. Besides, it is institutionally ruled and in almost every occasion it is able to be legally suited. ...

Nowadays, innovation is a constant in our specialty, and certainly it is for the patients’ benefit, but it implies a great challenge of daily updating for the interventional cardiologist. All the main companies try to improve the performance of their devices constantly. In this particular case we present a patient where there was an extreme difficulty to go into the ventricle, we believ...

The severe tricuspid insufficiency (TI) is an entity associated to a high morbimortality. The available treatment has traditionally been scarce, limited to drugs, diuretics and surgery. The medical treatment is often not enough for this patients’ group, requiring each time highest diuretic doses, which in turn higher the percentage of renal insufficiency associated, and condition to a w...

As it happens with other valvulopathies, the prevalence of the tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is increasing while aging. In its significant aspects, it produces signs and symptoms that affect the quality of life (fatigue, dyspnea, oedema), and disfunction of other organs due to congestion or as a result of low antegrade output. It also influences negatively in survival having been reported mort...
