A Rare Case of Giant Cell Arteritis Affecting Two Giants: Pulmonary and Root of Aorta Aneurysm

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aneurysms of pulmonary arteries and aorta are rare, typically caused by infections, congenital heart defects, vascular abnormalities, or medical interventions. This report presents an unusual case of a 72‐year‐old man with a history of smoking, hypertension, and emphysema, who was found to have a large pulmonary artery aneurysm (63.5 mm) and ...

Impact of prophylactic donor heart tricuspid valve annuloplasty on outcomes in heart transplantation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2023
Background Tricuspid regurgitation(TR) following heart transplantation could adversely affect clinical outcomes. In an effort to reduce the incidence of TR, prophylactic donor heart tricuspid valve annuloplasty has been performed during heart ...

Right ventricle to pulmonary artery coupling as a prognostic factor in tricuspid regurgitation: A systematic review

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 6, Page 4033-4040, December 2025.
The TAPSE/SPAP ratio is associated with worse prognosis in patients with significant tricuspid regurgitation and could indicate at‐risk patients. The exact cutoff value for RV‐PA uncoupling remains difficult to define and in available studies ranged from 0.26 to 0.49 mm/mmHg.

Isolated annuloplasty in elderly patients with secondary mitral valve regurgitation: short- and long-term outcomes with a less invasive approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
BackgroundLong-term outcomes of elderly and frail patients with secondary mitral valve regurgitation (MR) are inconclusive. Especially in patients with co-morbidities such as atherosclerosis who are suffering from heart failure, optimal medical therapy ...
