This issue offers a comprehensive meta-analysis of periprocedural myocardial infarction in 24 prospective studies and 44,972 patients; coronary lithotripsy is examined with the role of intravascular lithotripsy to precipitate ventricular ectopics and asynchronous cardiac pacing; new information on bioprosthetic valve fracture, a procedure increasingly performed to improve the outcomes of transcatheter aortic ViV; the impact of myocardial fibrosis in TAVI patients; and stroke risk after transcatheter mitral valve repair.
