Rarely, an acute Type A dissection can propagate to the right axillary artery. When this occurs, best to have alternate cannulation strategies in mind, particularly when repair will require lengthier DHCA times commensurate with total arch replacements. #aortaEd #ATAAD #aortic

By far the most common bicuspid aortic valve is the so called Sievert 1 with L-R fusion. I personally have not seen a Sievert 0 during SAVR & perhaps only 2-3 of the other S1 classifications. S2? Forget it. Any thoughts as to why? #bicuspid #bav #SAVR #sts

Do patients with low-flow, low-gradient aortic stenosis experience the same quality of life enhancements as their high-gradient counterparts? Please consider reading our latest paper in the Texas Heart Institute Journal

Our paper, as many during ISHLT2021, showed increased Impella usage as BTT LVAD since the new UNOS heart allocation policy. It is time for this device to join the ranks of the "durables" and begin reporting to INTERMACS. @ISHLT, #ishlt2021, #LVAD, #Impella abstractsonline.com/pp8/#!/9…

Ventricular surface of TAVR valve removed for endocarditis. Early gradients on valve perhaps from thrombus which I surmise subsequently became infected.

This is patient prosthetic mismatch. Symptoms consistent with AS. Inducible significant gradients. 9 year old tissue valve with mobile leaflets and surprisingly little degeneration. #PPM, #heartsurgery, @UCLAHealth – at Manhattan Beach, CA
