What are the long-term outcomes of #aortic valve repair in children after infancy? Surgeons at @RCHMelbourne say 15-year freedom from reoperation and replacement was 59% and 66%, respectively. Log in to #JTCVS to read more: https://t.co/pN565PLULt

.@konstantinov_ie presents his research on neonatal repair – commissural suspension during the #AATS2026 Congenital Valve Symposium.

Hot off the press today!
Should we be more cautious about long term results of TAVI compared with surgery in low and intermediate risk patients ?

1) Exactly 40 years ago today, the landmark @NEJM paper “Influence of the Internal Mammary Artery Graft on 10-Year Survival and Other Cardiac Events” was published, establishing the IMA–LAD graft as the cornerstone of CABG. https://t.co/sEshntEer9

[John Mandrola, MD @drjohnm]

I agree w this analysis. It’s open access so you can read it.

Clearly both PCI and CABG have a role, but the “curation” of these trial results is nothing short of unseemly.

I can almost hear Domenico hollering from heaven.

After studying the Ross operation in adults for over twenty-five years, surgeons at @AU_RMH found the inclusion technique keeps up the expectations with low long-term reoperation rates. Read more in #JTCVS: https://t.co/7osH1MBsI5

So excited about this and thankful to Larry Neubauer for his vision and support! Squarely aiming at reducing the burden of congenital heart disease at large

[Edward Buratto @edwardburatto]

A great educational experience with amazing people. Thanks @IHamamsy and the rest of the faculty.

[Ismail El-Hamamsy, MD, PhD @IHamamsy]

Great 2 days going over the latest about the #Rossprocedure at @MountSinaiNYC.
🙏 to the faculty & attendees from around the country and beyond for the collegial sharing of knowledge and expertise. This will no doubt benefit numbers of patients with AV disease around the world.

Join us Wednesday, 12/13 at 7pm ET for our next #congential webinar focusing on Atrioventricular Canal (AVC) data. Six surgeons will discuss staged repair, high-risk features, left atrioventricular valve (LAVV) repair durability, and long-term outcomes. https://t.co/LVHXC5k8cP
