  • Title: Novel percutaneous transcatheter intervention for refractory active endocarditis as a bridge to surgery-angiovac aspiration system.
    Author: Divekar AA, Scholz T, Fernandez JD.
    Journal: Catheter Cardiovasc Interv; 2013 May; 81(6):1008-12. PubMed ID: 22887769.
    Abstract:
    Guidelines for the treatment of active right-sided endocarditis are not well defined. We report the first novel use of an aspiration catheter system for transcatheter therapy of refractory active right sided endocarditis on a bioprosthetic valve in a high-risk surgical patient as a bridge to surgical intervention.
