Article Abstract

In the past decade, ibrutinib has transformed the treatment landscape for chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL). Two pivotal US Intergroups trials (E1912 and A041202) have established ibrutinib as the frontline treatment option for patients with treatment-naïve CLL in both young and fit, and old and frail populations. The cardiovascular side effect profile such as cardiac dysrhythmias, ischemic events and hypertension continues to be meticulously reported in all trials investigating ibrutinib and all other Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors for CLL/SLL. Herein, we utilized pooled data from two pivotal US Intergroup trials (A041202 and E1912) to report and evaluate ibrutinib associated pericardial events (including pericardial effusion, pericarditis, and tamponade).

Management of Transvenous Leads in Patients With Iatrogenic Lead Perforation.

J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol

September 2025

Cardiac Electrophysiology Section, Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio, USA.

Introduction: Iatrogenic lead perforation is a rare but serious complication of cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) implantation. Evidence on percutaneous management of subacute or delayed cases remains limited.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 38 patients treated for iatrogenic lead perforation between January 2012 and October 2024.

Objective: To compare the clinical outcomes of double-valve replacement (DVR) using bovine pericardial and porcine bioprostheses, using a nationwide administrative claims database.

Methods: Adult patients (age ≥40 years) who underwent bioprosthetic DVR between 2003 and 2018 were identified from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database. The outcomes of interest were all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality, and valve-related events, including the incidences of reoperation, endocarditis, systemic thromboembolism, and major bleeding.

Background: Incretin-based therapies are used to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity, but the presence of diabetes diminishes the magnitude of weight loss produced by these drugs in people with obesity. It is not known whether this attenuated weight change is relevant to the clinical benefits of these drugs in heart failure.

Objectives: The goal of this study was to assess the influence of diabetes on the efficacy and safety of tirzepatide in the SUMMIT trial.

Pericardial tamponade in pregnancy due to undiagnosed systemic lupus erythematosus: a case report.

Eur Heart J Case Rep

September 2025

Department of Cardiology and Medical Intensive Care, Kepler University Hospital, Medical Faculty, Johannes Kepler University, Klinik für Innere Medizin 1, Med Campus III, Krankenhausstrasse 9 Linz 4021, Austria.

Background: Pericardial tamponade during pregnancy is rare. Diagnosis of pericardial effusion can easily be made by echocardiography. Thorough clinical assessment, laboratory testing and advanced cardiac imaging are necessary to identify the underlying cause of pericardial effusion and rule out other causes of chest pain.

Long-Term Safety and Performance of a National Pericardium Organic Valvular Bioprosthesis in the Brazilian Public Health System: Retrospective Analysis Up To 26 Years of Follow-up.

Braz J Cardiovasc Surg

August 2025

Instituto de Moléstias Cardiovasculares Department of Cardiac Surgery São José do Rio Preto São Paulo Brazil Department of Cardiac Surgery, Instituto de Moléstias Cardiovasculares, São José do Rio Preto, São Paulo, Brazil.

Objective: To evaluate the long-term performance of a bovine pericardium valve prosthesis in individuals who required valve replacement in the Brazilian public health system.

Methods: Medical records of patients having mitral or aortic valve replacement with bovine pericardium valve prostheses between 1978 and 1994 at a Brazilian hospital were reviewed in this retrospective study. Safety was assessed through the complications and serious adverse events rates in the early and long terms.
