Abstract
Development of functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) because of chronic mitral disease and subsequent heart failure is common. However, the effect of TR on clinical outcomes after transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the impact of baseline TR on outcomes after TMVR. This was a single-center, retrospective analysis of patients who received valve-in-valve or valve-in-ring TMVR between 2012 and 2022. Patients were categorized into none/mild TR and moderate/severe TR based on baseline echocardiography. The primary outcome was 3 years all-cause death and the secondary outcomes were in-hospital events. Of the 135 patients who underwent TMVR, 64 (47%) exhibited none/mild TR at baseline, whereas 71 (53%) demonstrated moderate/severe TR. There were no significant differences in in-hospital events between the groups. At 3 years, the moderate/severe TR group exhibited a significantly increased risk of all-cause death (adjusted hazard ratio 3.37, 95% confidence interval 1.35 to 8.41, p = 0.009). When patients with baseline moderate/severe TR were stratified by echocardiography at 30 days into improved (36%) and nonimproved (64%) TR groups, although limited by small sample size, there was no significant difference in 3-year all-cause mortality (p = 0.48). In conclusion, this study investigating the impact of baseline TR on clinical outcomes revealed that moderate/severe TR is prevalent in those who underwent TMVR and is an independent predictor of 3-year all-cause mortality. Earlier mitral valve intervention before the development of significant TR may play a pivotal role in improving outcomes after TMVR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction is a source of morbidity in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and a life-threatening complication of transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) and transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Available surgical and transcatheter approaches are limited by high surgical risk, unsuitable septal perforators, and heart block requiring permanent pacemakers. OBJECTIVES The authors report the initial experience of a novel transcatheter electrosurgical procedure developed to mimic surgical myotomy. METHODS We used septal scoring along midline endocardium (SESAME) to treat patients, on a compassionate basis, with symptomatic LVOT obstruction or to create space to facilitate TMVR or TAVR. RESULTS In this single-center retrospective study between 2021 and 2023, 76 patients underwent SESAME. In total, 11 (14%) had classic HCM, and the remainder underwent SESAME to facilitate TMVR or TAVR. All had technically successful SESAME myocardial laceration. Measures to predict post-TMVR LVOT significantly improved (neo-LVOT 42 mm2 [Q1-Q3: 7-117 mm2] to 170 mm2 [Q1-Q3: 95-265 mm2]; P < 0.001; skirt-neo-LVOT 169 mm2 [Q1-Q3: 153-193 mm2] to 214 mm2 [Q1-Q3: 180-262 mm2]; P < 0.001). Among patients with HCM, SESAME significantly decreased invasive LVOT gradients (resting: 54 mm Hg [Q1-Q3: 40-70 mm Hg] to 29 mm Hg [Q1-Q3: 12-36 mm Hg]; P = 0.023; provoked 146 mm Hg [Q1-Q3: 100-180 mm Hg] to 85 mm Hg [Q1-Q3: 40-120 mm Hg]; P = 0.076). A total of 74 (97.4%) survived the procedure. Five experienced 3 of 76 (3.9%) iatrogenic ventricular septal defects that did not require repair and 3 of 76 (3.9%) ventricular free wall perforations. Neither occurred in patients treated for HCM. Permanent pacemakers were required in 4 of 76 (5.3%), including 2 after concomitant TAVR. Lacerations were stable and did not propagate after SESAME (remaining septum: 5.9 ± 3.3 mm to 6.1 ± 3.2 mm; P = 0.8). CONCLUSIONS With further experience, SESAME may benefit patients requiring septal reduction therapy for obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy as well as those with LVOT obstruction after heart valve replacement, and/or can help facilitate transcatheter valve implantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcatheter closure of transcatheter heart valve (THV)-related paravalvular leak (PVL) is associated with a high failure rate with available devices due to the complex interaction of THV and aortic/mitral annulus. OBJECTIVES This study reports on novel transcatheter techniques to treat PVL after THV. METHODS The authors describe consecutive patients who underwent PVL closure after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) or transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR). A covered self-expanding stent (Viabahn) was deployed in the defect to create a seal between the THV and annulus. A vascular plug (Amplatzer Vascular Plug 2 [AVP2] or AVP4) was then deployed inside the covered stent to obliterate PVL. RESULTS Eight patients with THV-related PVL were treated using this method (aortic [3 SAPIEN, 1 Evolut], mitral [2 SAPIEN-in-MAC (mitral annular calcification), 2 M3 TMVR). Various combinations of stents and plugs were used (5 mm × 2.5 cm Viabahn + 6 mm AVP4 [n = 2], 8 mm × 2.5 cm Viabahn + 10 mm AVP2 [n = 5], and 10 mm × 5.0 cm Viabahn + 12 mm AVP2 [n = 1]). All had technical success with immediate elimination of target PVL, without in-hospital complications. None had signs of postprocedure hemolysis. All patients were discharged alive (median 3.5 days [Q1-Q3: 1.0-4.8 days]). No residual PVL was seen at discharge, except for 1 patient with mild regurgitation due to another untreated PVL location. One patient died before 30 days due to complication of valve-in-MAC TMVR. In remaining patients, none had recurrence of PVL at 30 days. Symptoms decreased to NYHA functional class I/II in 6 patients. NYHA functional class III symptoms remained in 1 patient with mitral regurgitation awaiting subsequent valve replacement procedure. CONCLUSIONS The technique of sequential deployment of a covered stent and vascular plug may effectively treat THV-related PVL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS For patients with symptomatic, severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR), early results of transcatheter tricuspid valve (TV) intervention studies have shown significant improvements in functional status and quality of life associated with right-heart reverse remodelling. Longer-term follow-up is needed to confirm sustained improvements in these outcomes. METHODS The prospective, single-arm, multicentre TRISCEND study enrolled 176 patients to evaluate the safety and performance of transcatheter TV replacement in patients with ≥moderate, symptomatic TR despite medical therapy. Major adverse events, reduction in TR grade and haemodynamic outcomes by echocardiography, and clinical, functional, and quality-of-life parameters are reported to one year. RESULTS Enrolled patients were 71.0% female, mean age 78.7 years, 88.0% ≥ severe TR, and 75.4% New York Heart Association classes III-IV. Tricuspid regurgitation was reduced to ≤mild in 97.6% (P < .001), with increases in stroke volume (10.5 ± 16.8 mL, P < .001) and cardiac output (0.6 ± 1.2 L/min, P < .001). New York Heart Association class I or II was achieved in 93.3% (P < .001), Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire score increased by 25.7 points (P < .001), and six-minute walk distance increased by 56.2 m (P < .001). All-cause mortality was 9.1%, and 10.2% of patients were hospitalized for heart failure. CONCLUSIONS In an elderly, highly comorbid population with ≥moderate TR, patients receiving transfemoral EVOQUE transcatheter TV replacement had sustained TR reduction, significant increases in stroke volume and cardiac output, and high survival and low hospitalization rates with improved clinical, functional, and quality-of-life outcomes to one year.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The need for pacemaker is a common complication after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). We previously described the Emory Risk Score (ERS) to predict the need for new pacemaker implant (PPM) after TAVR. Metrics included in the score are a history of syncope, pre-existing RBBB, QRS duration ≥140 ms, and prosthesis oversizing ≥16%. To prospectively validate the previously described risk score. METHODS We prospectively evaluated all patients without pre-existing pacemakers, ICD, or pre-existing indications for pacing undergoing TAVR with the Edwards SAPIEN 3 prosthesis at our institution from March 2019 to December 2020 (n = 661). Patients were scored prospectively; however, results were blinded from clinical decision-making. The primary endpoint was PPM at 30 days after TAVR. Performance of the ERS was evaluated using logistic regression, a calibration curve to prior performance, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. RESULTS A total of 48 patients (7.3%) had PPM after TAVR. A higher ERS predicted an increased likelihood of PPM (OR 2.61, 95% CI: 2.05-3.25 per point, p < 0.001). There was good correlation between observed and expected values on the calibration curve (slope = 1.04, calibration at large = 0.001). The area under the ROC curve was 0.81 (95% CI [0.74-0.88], p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The ERS prospectively predicted the need for PPM in a serial, real-world cohort of patients undergoing TAVR with a balloon-expandable prosthesis, confirming findings previously described in retrospective cohorts. Notably, the prospective performance of the score was comparable with that of the initial cohorts. The risk score could serve as a framework for preprocedural risk stratification for PPM after TAVR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postinfarction ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a catastrophic complication of myocardial infarction. Surgical repair still has poor outcomes. This report describes clinical outcomes after a novel hybrid transcatheter/surgical repair in patients with apical VSD. METHODS Seven patients with postmyocardial infarction apical VSD underwent hybrid transcatheter repair via subxiphoid surgical access. A transcatheter occluder (Amplatzer Septal Occluder) with a trailing premounted suture was deployed through the right ventricular wall and through the ventricular septum into the left ventricular apex. The trailing suture was used to connect an anchor external to the right ventricular wall. Tension on the suture then collapses the right ventricular free wall against the septum and left ventricular occluder, thereby obliterating the VSD. Outcomes were compared with 9 patients who underwent surgical repair using either patch or primary suture closure. RESULTS All patients had significant left-to-right shunt (Qp:Qs 2.5:1; interquartile range [IQR, 2.1-2.6] hybrid repair versus 2.0:1 [IQR, 2.0-2.5] surgical repair), and elevated right ventricular systolic pressure (62 [IQR, 46-71] versus 49 [IQR, 43-54] mm Hg, respectively). All had severely depressed stroke volume index (22 versus 21 mL/m2) with ≈45% in each group requiring mechanical support preprocedurally. The procedure was done 15 (IQR, 10-50) versus 24 (IQR, 10-134) days postmyocardial infarction, respectively. Both groups of patients underwent repair with technical success and without intraprocedural death. One patient in the hybrid group and 4 in the surgical group developed multiorgan failure. The hybrid group had a higher survival at discharge (86% versus 56%) and at 30 days (71% versus 56%), but similar at 1 year (57% versus 56%). During follow-up, 1 patient in each group required reintervention for residual VSD (hybrid: 9 months versus surgical: 5 days). CONCLUSIONS Early intervention with a hybrid transcatheter/surgical repair may be a viable alternative to traditional surgery for postinfarction apical VSD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) in patients with a congenital or acquired abnormality resulting in enlarged right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) is challenging and may preclude treatment with dedicated devices. We describe a technique using a physician-modified endograft to facilitate TPVR. METHODS Six patients underwent physician-modified endograft-facilitated TPVR for severe symptomatic pulmonary insufficiency with enlarged RVOT. The fenestration was created in a commercially available endograft before implantation, which was then deployed from the dominant branch pulmonary artery into the RVOT, with the fenestration aligned with the ostium of the nondominant pulmonary artery. A covered stent was placed through the fenestration into the nondominant branch pulmonary artery, and a transcatheter heart valve was deployed within the endograft at the level of the original pulmonary valve. RESULTS Four patients had tetralogy of Fallot, 1 had pulmonary atresia, and 1 had rheumatic valve disease. The RVOT/main pulmonary artery was severely enlarged (diameter, 44.2 [43.5-50.6] mm). All patients had reduced right ventricular (RV) function and dilated RVs (RV end-diastolic volume, 314 [235-316] mL). Successful endograft, covered stent, and transcatheter heart valve deployment were achieved in all cases without stent/valve embolization, vascular complications, or bleeding complications. At 30 days, 1 patient had mild pulmonary insufficiency, while others had none. The RV size measured by echocardiography was significantly reduced after TPVR (RV area, 34.4 [baseline] versus 29.0 [pre-discharge] versus 25.3 [30 days] cm2; P=0.03). During median follow-up of 221.5 (range, 29-652) days, there were no deaths or need for pulmonary valve reintervention. One patient developed severe tricuspid regurgitation due to entrapment of the anterior tricuspid leaflet by the endograft. The patient underwent successful tricuspid replacement and resection of the offending endograft with preservation of the pulmonary valve prosthesis. CONCLUSIONS Simple fenestration of an off-the-shelf endograft and associated covered stent placement through the fenestration allows TPVR for patients with dysfunctional native or patch-repaired pulmonary valves and RVOT enlargement.

Abstract
A cardiogenic shock patient with a history of a surgical mitral valve replacement presented to the hospital with critical mitral stenosis with thickening of prosthetic valve leaflets and thrombus in left atrial appendage. We considered TMVR inside of the degenerated bioprosthetic valve. However, there were two concerns during TMVR based on multimodality imaging assessment: 1) LVOT obstruction due to the surgical bioprosthetic leaflet, 2) stroke due to left atrial appendage thrombus. We performed TMVR with LAMPOON (laceration of the anterior leaflet of the surgical valve to prevent left ventricular outflow tract obstruction) for the bioprosthesis using cerebral protection. While the LAMPOON procedure has developed to prevent LVOT obstruction by the native anterior mitral leaflet during transcatheter mitral valve-in-ring or valve-in-mitral annular calcification, this is the first case that illustrates its use for mitral valve-in-valve replacement.

Abstract
Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) using the SAPIEN platform has been performed in failed bioprosthetic valves (valve-in-valve), surgical annuloplasty rings (valve-in-ring), and native valves with mitral annular calcification (MAC) (valve-in-MAC). Experience over the past decade has identified important challenges and solutions to improve clinical outcomes. In this review, we discuss the indication, trend in utilization, unique challenges, procedural planning, and clinical outcomes of valve-in-valve, valve-in-ring, and valve-in-MAC TMVR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcatheter mitral valve repair is beneficial in patients with mitral regurgitation (MR), left ventricular dysfunction, and persistent symptoms despite maximally tolerated medical therapy. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of transcatheter mitral cerclage ventriculoplasty in patients with MR and either heart failure with reduced ejection fraction or preserved ejection fraction and in subjects with prior edge-to-edge repair but persistent or recurrent symptomatic MR. METHODS The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Division of Intramural Research Transcatheter Mitral Cerclage Ventriculoplasty Early Feasibility Study (NCT03929913) was an investigator-initiated prospective multicenter study. The primary endpoint was technical success measured at exit from the catheterization laboratory. Follow-up included heart failure quality-of-life assessments and serial imaging with echocardiography and cardiac computed tomography. RESULTS Nineteen subjects consented and underwent cerclage, 63% with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and 37% with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, with ischemic cardiomyopathy in 26% and nonischemic cardiomyopathy in 74%. There were no procedural deaths, strokes, or transient ischemic attacks or other major cardiovascular adverse events. The primary endpoint was met in 17 subjects. Cerclage induced sustained reductions in mitral regurgitant volume (-41%) and effective orifice area (-33%) after a median of 337 days. Cerclage resulted in improvements in 6-minute walking distance (+78 m) and Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire Overall Summary Score (+22 points) at 30 days that were maintained after a median of 265 days. New complete heart block developed in 6 of 17 subjects. Three deaths occurred on postprocedural days 79, 159, and 756, unrelated to cerclage. CONCLUSIONS Transcatheter mitral cerclage ventriculoplasty resulted in significant and sustained improvements in mitral regurgitation and in heart failure quality-of-life assessments.

Abstract
Valve-in-valve (ViV) transcatheter procedures are the preferred option for redo valve replacement in patients who otherwise would be high risk for surgery. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is an integral imaging modality for both peri-procedural and intra-procedural guidance during transcatheter ViV replacement. When intentional leaflet laceration is needed, such as with the BASILICA (Bioprosthetic or native Aortic Scallop Intentional Laceration to prevent Iatrogenic Coronary Artery obstructions during TAVR) or LAMPOON (Laceration of the Anterior Mitral valve leaflet to Prevent left ventricular Outlet ObstructioN) procedures, TEE is critical to proper guidewire positioning and achieving a successful laceration. In this paper we detail the role of TEE in ViV transcatheter valve replacement in patients with prior surgical aortic, mitral, tricuspid, and pulmonic valves.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bioprosthetic or native aortic scallop intentional laceration to prevent iatrogenic coronary artery obstruction (BASILICA) and laceration of the anterior mitral leaflet to prevent outflow obstruction (LAMPOON) reduce the risk of coronary and left ventricular outflow obstruction obstruction during transcatheter aortic valve replacement and transcatheter mitral valve replacement. Despite successful laceration, BASILICA or LAMPOON may fail to prevent obstruction caused by inadequate leaflet splay in patients having challenging anatomy such as very small valve-to-coronary distance, diffusely calcified, rigid leaflets, or undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement inside existing transcatheter aortic valve replacement. We describe a novel technique of balloon-augmented (BA) leaflet laceration to enhance leaflet splay. METHODS We measured the incremental leaflet splay from BA-BASILICA in vitro. From November 2019 to March 2021, 16 patients underwent BA-BASILICA and 4 BA-LAMPOON at 3 centers. RESULTS BA-BASILICA increased benchtop leaflet tip splay 17%, maximum splay angle 30%, and splay area 23%, resulting in a more rounded apex and larger effective area. Sixteen patients at risk for inadequate BASILICA leaflet splay, including 4 transcatheter aortic valve replacement inside existing transcatheter aortic valve replacement, underwent BA-BASILICA. All had successful leaflet laceration. One had coronary obstruction requiring immediate orthotopic stenting. Two underwent elective orthotopic coronary stenting through the transcatheter valve cells for leaflet prolapse without coronary ischemia. There were no deaths during the procedure or at 30 days. Four patients at risk for inadequate anterior mitral leaflet splay underwent BA-LAMPOON. All had successful target leaflet laceration without left ventricular outflow obstruction obstruction or procedural death. One died within 30 days. CONCLUSIONS BA leaflet laceration enhances leaflet splay in vitro and may allow transcatheter aortic valve replacement and transcatheter mitral valve replacement in patients otherwise ineligible for traditional BASILICA or LAMPOON due to challenging anatomy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that narrowing the landing zone using commercially available endografts would enable transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) using commercially available transcatheter heart valves. BACKGROUND TPVR is challenging in an outsized native or patch-repaired right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT). Downsizing the RVOT for TPVR is currently possible only using investigational devices. In patients ineligible because of excessive RVOT size, TPVR landing zones were created using commercially available endografts. METHODS Consecutive patients with native or patch-repaired RVOTs and high or prohibitive surgical risk were reviewed, and this report describes the authors' experience with endograft-facilitated TPVR (EF-TPVR) offered to patients ineligible for investigational or commercial devices. All EF-TPVR patients were surgery ineligible, with symptomatic, severe pulmonary insufficiency, enlarged RVOTs, and severe right ventricular (RV) enlargement (>150 ml/m2). TPVR and surgical pulmonary valve replacement (SPVR) were compared in patients with less severe RV enlargement. RESULTS Fourteen patients had large RVOTs unsuitable for conventional TPVR; 6 patients (1 surgery ineligible) received investigational devices, and 8 otherwise ineligible patients underwent compassionate EF-TPVR (n = 5 with tetralogy of Fallot). Three strategies were applied on the basis of progressively larger RVOT size: single-barrel, in situ fenestrated, and double-barrel endografts as required to anchor 1 (single-barrel and fenestrated) or 2 (double-barrel) transcatheter heart valves. All were technically successful, without procedure-related, 30-day, or in-hospital deaths. Two late complications (stent obstruction and embolization) were treated percutaneously. One patient died of ventricular tachycardia 36 days after EF-TPVR. Compared with 48 SPVRs, RV enlargement was greater, but 30-day and 1-year mortality and readmission were no different. The mean transvalvular pressure gradient was lower after EF-TPVR (3.8 ± 0.8 mm Hg vs. 10.7 ± 4.1 mm Hg; p < 0.001; 30 days). More than mild pulmonary insufficiency was equivalent in both (EF-TPVR 0.0% [n = 0 of 8] vs. SPVR 4.3% [n = 1 of 43]; p = 1.00; 30 days). CONCLUSIONS EF-TPVR may be an alternative for patients with pulmonic insufficiency and enlarged RVOTs ineligible for other therapies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate tip-to-base intentional laceration of the anterior mitral leaflet to prevent left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LAMPOON) in patients undergoing transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) in annuloplasty rings or surgical mitral valves. BACKGROUND LAMPOON is an effective adjunct to TMVR that prevents left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO). Laceration is typically performed from the base to the tip of the anterior mitral leaflet. A modified laceration technique from leaflet tip to base may be effective in patients with a prosthesis that protects the aortomitral curtain. METHODS This is a multicenter, 21-patient, consecutive retrospective observational cohort. Patients underwent tip-to-base LAMPOON to prevent LVOTO and leaflet overhang, or therapeutically to lacerate a long anterior mitral leaflet risking or causing LVOTO. Outcomes were compared with findings from patients in the LAMPOON investigational device exemption trial with a prior mitral annuloplasty. RESULTS Twenty-one patients with a annuloplasty or valve prosthesis-protected mitral annulus underwent tip-to-base LAMPOON (19 preventive, 2 rescue). Leaflet laceration was successful in all and successfully prevented or treated LVOTO in all patients. No patients had significant LVOTO upon discharge. There were 2 cases of unintentional aortic valve injury (1 patient underwent emergency transcatheter aortic valve replacement and 1 patient underwent urgent surgical aortic valve replacement). In both cases, the patients had a supra-annular ring annuloplasty, and the retrograde aortic guiding catheter failed to insulate the guidewire lacerating surface from the aortic root. All patients survived to 30 days. Compared with classic retrograde LAMPOON, there was a trend toward shorter procedure time. CONCLUSIONS Tip-to-base laceration is a simple, effective, and safe LAMPOON variant applicable to patients with an appropriately positioned mitral annular ring or bioprosthetic valve. Operators should take care to insulate the lacerating surface from adjacent structures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that transcatheter electrosurgery might allow intentional detachment of previously placed MitraClip(s) from the anterior leaflet to recreate a single mitral orifice for transcatheter mitral valve implantation (TMVI), leaving the retained MitraClip(s) securely fastened to the posterior leaflet and without interfering with the mitral bioprosthesis. BACKGROUND Patients with severe mitral regurgitation or stenosis despite edge-to-edge mitral repair with the MitraClip typically have few therapeutic options because the resultant double orifice precludes TMVI. Transcatheter electrosurgery may allow detachment of failed MitraClip(s) from the anterior leaflet to recreate a single orifice for TMVI. METHODS This was a single-center, 5-patient, consecutive, retrospective observational cohort. Patients underwent transcatheter electrosurgical laceration and stabilization of failed MitraClip(s) to recreate a single orifice, leaving the MitraClip(s) securely fastened to the posterior leaflet. Subsequently, patients underwent TMVI with an investigational device, the Tendyne mitral bioprosthesis, on a compassionate basis. Patients were followed up to 30 days. RESULTS MitraClip detachment from the anterior leaflet and Tendyne implantation were successful in all patients. All patients survived to discharge. All patients were discharged with grade 0 central mitral regurgitation. Two patients had moderate perivalvular mitral regurgitation that did not require reintervention. During the follow-up period of 30 days, there were no deaths, cases of valve dysfunction, or reintervention. There was no evidence of erosion or bioprosthetic valve dysfunction attributable to the retained MitraClip(s) still attached to the posterior leaflet. CONCLUSIONS Transcatheter electrosurgical detachment of failed MitraClips from the anterior leaflet followed by TMVI is technically feasible and safe at 30 days. Longer term study is needed to determine the clinical benefit of this approach and new algorithms for TMVI sizing following electrosurgical laceration and stabilization of a failed MitraClip to avoid perivalvular leak.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a paucity of data regarding the optimum timing of PCI in relation to TAVR. OBJECTIVE We compared the major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) rates among patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) before transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with those who received PCI with/after TAVR. METHODS In this multicenter study, we pooled all consecutive patients who underwent TAVR at three high volume centers. RESULTS Among 3,982 patients who underwent TAVR, 327 (8%) patients underwent PCI within 1 year before TAVR, 38 (1%) had PCI the same day as TAVR and 15 (0.5%) had PCI within 2 months after TAVR. Overall, among patients who received both PCI and TAVR (n = 380), history of previous CABG (HR:0.501; p = .001), higher BMI at TAVR (HR:0.970; p = .038), and statin therapy after TAVR (HR:0.660, p = .037) were independently associated with lower MACCE while warfarin therapy after TAVR was associated with a higher risk of MACCE (HR:1.779, p = .017). Patients who received PCI within 1 year before TAVR had similar baseline demographics, STS scores, clinical risk factors when compared to patients receiving PCI with/after TAVR. Both groups were similar in PCI (Syntax Score, ACC/AHA lesion class) and TAVR (valve types, access) related variables. There were no significant differences in terms of MACCE (log rank p = .550), all-cause mortality (log rank p = .433), strokes (log rank p = .153), and repeat PCI (log rank p = .054) in patients who underwent PCI with/after TAVR when compared to patients who received PCI before TAVR. CONCLUSION Among patients who underwent both PCI and TAVR, history of CABG, higher BMI, and statin therapy had lower, while those discharged on warfarin, had higher adverse event rates. Adverse events rates were similar regardless of timing of PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intentional laceration of the anterior mitral leaflet (LAMPOON) is an effective adjunct to transcatheter mitral valve replacement that prevents left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction. To date, LAMPOON has been performed in over 150 patients using a retrograde approach that can be technically challenging. A modified antegrade transseptal technique may simplify the procedure. METHODS Antegrade LAMPOON was developed and tested in nonsurvival pig experiments. Thereafter, antegrade LAMPOON was performed in patients at prohibitive risk of LVOT obstruction. Clinical, procedural, and angiographic details were abstracted from medical records of their index procedure, and were compared with findings in comparable patients at risk of fixed-LVOT obstruction in the LAMPOON investigational device exemption trial. RESULTS Eight patients at risk of fixed LVOT obstruction underwent antegrade LAMPOON. Leaflet traversal and laceration were technically successful in all. There were no cases of clinically significant LVOT obstruction (mean LVOT gradient at discharge: 5.4±1.4 mm Hg). One patient suffered a ventricular wire perforation, unrelated to the antegrade LAMPOON technique, and did not survive to discharge. At the time of discharge, no patients had an increase of >10 mm Hg in LVOT gradient compared with baseline. Procedure times (from traversal to transcatheter mitral valve replacement) were shorter, compared with the retrograde technique in the LAMPOON investigational device exemption trial (39±09 versus 65±35 minutes). All patients survived (8/8, 100%) the procedure, and 7/8 (88%) survived to 30 days, similar to subjects in the LAMPOON investigational device exemption trial. CONCLUSIONS Antegrade LAMPOON is an effective, reproducible, and simplified strategy to lacerate the anterior leaflet before transcatheter mitral valve replacement. The authors recommend the technique as the new standard for LAMPOON.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction is a leading cause of mortality and exclusion from transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR). Intentional laceration of the anterior mitral valve leaflet to prevent LVOT obstruction (LAMPOON) is a transcatheter mimic of surgical chord-sparing leaflet resection. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this prospective multicenter trial was to study LAMPOON with transseptal (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, California) TMVR in annuloplasty rings or native mitral annular calcification (MAC). METHODS Subjects at high or extreme surgical risk and prohibitive risk of LVOT obstruction from TMVR were included. Eligibility was modified midtrial to exclude subjects with threatened LVOT obstruction from a Sapien 3 valve fabric skirt. The primary endpoint was procedure survival with successful LAMPOON, with successful TMVR, without reintervention, and with LVOT gradient <30 mm Hg ("optimal") or <50 mm Hg ("acceptable"). Secondary endpoints included 30-day mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events. There was universal source-data verification and independent monitoring. All endpoints were independently adjudicated. Central laboratories analyzed echocardiogram and CT images. RESULTS Between June 2017 and June 2018, 30 subjects were enrolled equally between the MAC and ring arms. LAMPOON traversal and midline laceration was successful in 100%. Procedure survival was 100%, and 30-day survival was 93%. Primary success was achieved in 73%, driven by additional procedures for paravalvular leak (10%) and high-skirt neo-LVOT gradients observed before a protocol amendment. There were no strokes. CONCLUSIONS LAMPOON was feasible in native and annuloplasty ring anatomies in patients who were otherwise ineligible for treatment, with acceptable safety. LAMPOON was effective in preventing LVOT obstruction from TMVR. Despite LAMPOON, TMVR using Sapien 3 in annuloplasty rings and MAC still exhibits important limitations.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT The benefits of regular and moderate exercise training on cardiovascular outcomes have been well established. In addition, strenuous exercise training leads to corollary cardiac structural and functional adaptations that are sport-specific and facilitate athletic performance. In this review, the normal physiologic and hemodynamic changes that occur during exercise and the subsequent differential exercise-induced cardiac remodeling patterns that develop will be discussed. Paradoxically, recent data have raised concern about the long-term impact of higher doses of physical activity and exercise on mortality and cardiovascular health outcomes. We will discuss important aspects of these controversial data and review the supporting evidence as well as the limitations of prior research. Specifically, we will address the association between high levels of exercise and relative reductions in overall mortality, increased risk of atrial fibrillation, arrhythmogenic cardiac remodeling, and accelerated coronary artery calcifications. For the practitioner, this review aims to detail these contemporary sports cardiology controversies and highlights the critical need to incorporate shared decision making with the athlete in dealing with the uncertainties that exist. Finally, we will discuss key "athlete-specific" variables that should be considered in the design of future important research in this arena.
