Interventional Cardiology and Vascular Medicine

Dear Colleagues,

Cardiac and vascular diseases represent the leading cause of death worldwide. The limits of interventional cardiology are going to expand new patient subsets, which is also due to the growing variety of procedures that can be performed. Moreover, patients that are currently being treated have more comorbidities and require specific skills due to the aging population.

In this Special Issue, we will discuss current challenges in interventional cardiology and peripheral interventions, as well as specific supports to cardiac interventions such as mechanical circulatory supports. We will also discuss advancements in cardiac structural interventions.

Dr. Alessandro Durante
Guest Editor
