Safety and Feasibility of Transcatheter Interruption of Ruptured Sinus of Valsalva Aneurysm Using the Cocoon Duct Occluder: Immediate Results and Mid-Term Follow-Up
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Limited data are available regarding safety and feasibility of transcatheter interruption of ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (RSOVA) using the Cocoon duct occluder (CDO) with immediate and mid-term follow-up result. METHODS: Transcatheter closure (TCC) was successfully done among eight patients, whereas five cases, not amenable to TCC, were referred for surgical correction among 13 consecutive patients of RSOVA at LPS Institute of Cardiology, Kanpur between January 2010 and March 2015. RESULTS: Their mean age was 26.1 ± 6.9 years. Sites of rupture were from right coronary sinus (RCS) to right atrium (RA) in one (12.5%), right ventricle in one (12.5%), and non-coronary sinus to RA in six patients (75%). The defects (9 - 17 mm) were closed by CDO (12/10 - 20/18 mm) with 100% procedural success. During follow-up (9 - 26 months), there was no residual shunt, progression of AR, infective endocarditis or device embolization. CONCLUSION: TCC of RSOVA appears to be a safe and feasible alternative to surgical therapy, with high technical success and excellent mid-term follow-up.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
