Aortic valve diseases are life-threatening conditions with increasing prevalence worldwide. Risk factors include gender, age, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and type 2 diabetes. Obesity is closely related to these risk factors and has been linked to a higher risk of developing aortic valve diseases. However, there is no specific guideline for managing aortic valve disease in patients with obesity, and the choice of valve type remains uncertain.

Optimizing aortic valve prosthesis selection in patients with obesity: Institutional experience with multidisciplinary perspective.

Simultaneous Bentall Procedure and Partial Atrioventricular Septal Defect Repair in a 64-Year-Old Patient with Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Borderline left ventricle cases present considerable difficulties in determining the most effective surgical approaches. The evolution of approaches in the field has shifted from classical systemic pulmonary shunts to orthodox univentricular palliation and has subsequently seen the emergence of biventricular repair concepts. The concept of biventricular repair for borderline left heart conditions has developed through studies that aim to establish predictive scoring systems for identifying appropriate candidates. Despite continuous efforts, a definitive scoring system for guiding this decision is still difficult to find. There is a growing trend to provide neonatal patients with borderline ventricles with options other than univentricular palliation. Several centres have developed personalized strategies, including hybrid and staged ventricular recruitment approaches. These strategies provide sufficient time for personalized decision-making, taking into account the individual circumstances of each patient. This article presents an overview of the changing approaches to borderline left ventricular cases. It discusses the use of predictive scoring systems and emphasizes the advancements in staged strategies that improve the likelihood of successful biventricular repairs.
