Carlos Fernández Pereira

Interventional cardiology in Argentina has been shaped by visionary minds who have marked milestones in the evolution of our specialty. Among them, Dr. Luis de la Fuente stands as a true pioneer, a professional whose career has transcended borders, making significant scientific contributions to the development of cardiovascular interventions. Recently, the Argentinian College of Interven...

Juan Ignacio Damonte y cols.

Severe aortic valve stenosis (AS), defined by an aortic valve area < 1 cm² or a body surface area < 0.6 cm²/m², is one of the leading valve diseases globally, with an estimated prevalence of 2-9% in patients over 75 years old1, 2. This prevalence is increasing due to progressive population aging. In this context, considering the deleterious clinical impact ...

Giovanni Martínez y cols.

Transradial access has been associated with numerous benefits in coronary angioplasty compared to femoral access, such as lower mortality at 30 days and 1 year, which could be related to a reduced incidence of vascular complications and a lower risk of hematoma (3.7% vs. 1.4%). Complications related to arterial access techniques include arterial spasm, bleeding, hematoma, pseudoaneu...

Angiography is the standard method for assessing the coronary tree and guiding coronary angioplasty, but it has limitations, as it does not allow for the visualization of the vessel wall, exact diameters, plaque characteristics, or a detailed view of stenting results. It displays a complex three-dimensional structure in two dimensions. These limitations have driven the development of new intr...

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a pathophysiological alteration characterized by elevation in the pressure of pulmonary circulation linked to multiple clinical entities. In general, it tends to complicate most cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.Its identification is based on the determination of a mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) >20 mmHg measured by right-heart catheterizati...

In a setting of ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI), multivessel disease (MVD) is a common condition associated with an increased risk of recurrent ischemia, hemorrhagic events, and high mortality during follow-up. Moreover, the impact of MVD on adverse clinical events in STEMI may vary according to the complexity and severity of the evidenced atherosclerotic coronary dis...

How did I treat a peripheral AVM?
María Cecilia Masino y cols.

A 17-year-old male patient with no history of cardiovascular disease presented with right plantar angioma. He had a history of multiple unsuccessful embolizations (partial results). Due to persistent symptoms, including swelling and pain in the right heel that significantly impacted his quality of life, he sought consultation at our Department. His assessment began with a contrast-enhanc...
