Imaging-aided percutaneous patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure has undergone progressive consolidation over the past decade, particularly following the publication of randomized controlled trials demonstrating its benefit in secondary stroke prevention in carefully selected patients. In this context, the study presented by Magariños et al. constitutes a valuable contribution, not only f...

The first description of patent foramen ovale (PFO) was made by Galen in the 16th century. In 1951, in a review article, B. Johnson documented 41 cases of emboli lodged a PFO, establishing the passage of particulate material through it1 — a phenomenon subsequently confirmed by ultrasound-based studies. Following a period of conflicting scientific data comparing percutaneous PF...

Superior vena cava obstruction results from an impaired venous return and presents clinically by means of congestive symptoms including dyspnea, facial edema, and jugular venous distension. Most cases are associated with malignancies, particularly small-cell lung carcinoma. In advanced disease, endovascular stenting is an effective palliative measure, offering rapid clinical improvement with ...

Endovascular treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is the preferred strategy for most elderly and high-surgical-risk patients. However, approximately 20-30% of patients present with complex anatomy involving a short or absent infrarenal neck, which is associated with an increased risk of type I endoleak, device migration, and treatment failure. Polymer-sealed endografts (Ovation i...

Central venous occlusion (CVO) has an incidence in 25–40% of all hemodialysis patients and is associated with significant sequelae including vascular access dysfunction and loss1. The high incidence of CVO is attributed to prolonged catheter use and the elevated flow generated by native and prosthetic vascular accesses, both of which promote venous intimal hyperplasia and occlusion2. CV...

Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most prevalent clinically significant valvular heart disease in the elderly population and is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality when not treated in a timely and appropriate manner. Its estimated prevalence ranges from 2% to 7% in individuals over 65 years old, increasing progressively with age. Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) requiring trea...

Aortic arch repair remains a formidable challenge. Over recent years, treatment has evolved from hybrid approaches toward dedicated systems that allow for complete repair without cardiopulmonary bypass. Current guidelines from the European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery (EACTS) and the European Society for Vascular Surgery (ESVS) establish endovascular aortic arch repair as...

The case presented is that of a 32-year-old man who suffered a vertebrobasilar ictus, with a positive shunt study on transcranial Doppler, prompting further workup with transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). TEE showed a patent foramen ovale (PFO) with spontaneous shunting and an adjacent 4-5-mm ostium secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) in the posterosuperior aspect of the fossa ovalis. Thi...
Letter from the President of CACI
Juan Fernández
Dear colleagues and friends, It is always a pleasure to share a few words with you. The CACI-MDQ meeting, held at the Costa Galana Hotel in the beautiful city of Mar del Plata, was a resounding success. It brought together more than 200 interventional cardiologists under an atmosphere of enthusiastic and broad participation, with strong support from industry partners. The scientific...
