DOI: 10.1002/ccd.30544
Abstract: Ever since the introduction and surgical success of Starr–Edwards prostheses for valve replacement in the 1960s, prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE) has plagued us. In the early 1970s, reports proliferated describing PVE and its complications, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ccd.70027
Abstract: Infective endocarditis (IE) after transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) remains a significant concern. Although there are overall good short‐term and long‐term hemodynamic outcomes, limited data exist comparing postimplantation echocardiographic findings leading to IE. read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00392-022-01998-0
Abstract: Scarce data exist about early infective endocarditis (IE) after trans-catheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). The objective was to evaluate the characteristics, management, and outcomes of very early (VE) IE (≤ 30 days) after TAVR. This multicenter… read more here.
