Wrapped a great #JACCCaseReports Joint Case Forum at #GWICC/#AHS26 with @MiChen__. Outstanding cases from #China + #StructuralHeartInterventions interview with Prof. Song Guangyuan. Highly educational!

Presented at #ESCCongress:
In patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation and heart failure, transcatheter tricuspid-valve repair plus medical therapy was superior to medical therapy alone in reducing hospitalizations for heart failure and deaths. Full TRIC-I-HF trial results: nej.md/4ilZJGr
@escardio
ALT Three graphs showing Kaplan–Meier estimates for prespecified events as adjudicated by the clinical-events committee at 3 years. Panel A shows freedom from death from any cause or hospitalization for heart failure (second coprimary end point), Panel B survival, and Panel C freedom from hospitalization for heart failure.

Can anchor-#BASILICA/#UNICORN help prevent CO during #TAVR? In a multicenter study of high-risk patients, investigators evaluated feasibility, procedural success, & 30-day outcomes of this leaflet laceration technique before TAVR.

JUST OUT! #JACCINT @JACCJournals on long-term outcomes of SAPIEN3 MVIV MVIR VIMAC #TMVR. As expected, MVIV did much better than MVIR and VIMAC in all-cause and CV mortality. Median follow-up 3ys (up to 8y) with ~7% severe SVD after 5y and ~10% TMVR failure after 4y. Depends on how you see it, I see this as sobering outcomes: MVIR and VIMAC should be offered only in inoperable patients with limited life expectancies, given poor survival and limited valve durability. MVIV has better outcomes, but need to follow re: SVD and TMVR failure and may end up being a bridge to reop MVR especially in younger patients. 5y durability data of native TMVR are emerging (Intrepid, Tendyne), will see how they fare vs balloon-expandable TMVR in failed valves, rings, MAC.
Thoughts and comments?

JUST OUT on my @YouTube Channel! My tips and tricks on how to optimize your @powerpoint presentations, so the videos, images show flawlessly; how to crop images, import screen shots, optimize image and video qualities and color/contrasts, trim and play videos synchronously, play multiple videos in sync without manually clicking them, and in loops (especially useful for echo and angio videos), how to optimize the PPTX file size and make all the videos embedded and compatible (no more glitches and videos can't play on the podium), and how to save your slides into individual high-res image files for manuscript submissions to academic journals.

As our patients are getting more and more complex, we need wide variety of ideas, insights, and techniques for our best patient care. Cannot agree more with @TsuyoshiKaneko1, #PCRTokyo is also waiting for contemporary cardiac surgeons and imagers! @PCRonline
Come and join one of the best Valve meetings in the world's best city!! Cardiac Surgeons should join as the key members of the Heart Team. @OhnoTuri @GilbertTangMD @PCRonline #PCRTokyo

Important #Anchor_BASILICA technique, helpful in patients with renal impairment, native or surgical valve that doesn’t have a post for alignment - to save contrast - pioneered by #KarlPoon. @CathElectroSurg @GilbertTangMD @CUHKMedicine @DrMarvinEng @PedroMDMSc @g_giustinoMD
