The story behind the “heart in heart” image from my previous post. Long instent RCA CTO. Class III angina. No septal collaterals. Failed antegrade. Retro via conus-PLV epicardial. Unfortunate workhorse wire perf in distal PDA at end needing coils 😔!No angina at 4 week follow-up.

Grateful to share results of PARAGLIDE-HF on behalf of tremendous team effort.
Sac/Val vs Val in 466 pts w HF and EF>40% with recent WHF.
Positive trial for NTproBNP reduction; CV & renal endpts favored esp in EF<|=60% https://t.co/Jm4W7tvXWl

Sacubitril/valsartan shows benefit in heart failure with ejection fraction above 40% 👇

Thin cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) and MLA <3.5 mm2: ☠️

7-point Summary 👇👇

[Evandro Martins F. MD @evandrofilhobr]

72M, 8 months past TAVR with S3 26mm (image below: final angio, intra-op TTE, final invasive hemodynamics)
Now w/ asymptomatic aortic gradients elevation (PG 60mmHg MG 34mmHg)

CT scan showed hypoattenuating leaflet thickening (image below)

What would you do? warfarin or NOACs?
