Quadruple Bioprosthetic Valve Replacement in a Patient With Severe Carcinoid Heart Disease

JACC: Case Reports, 2020
Carcinoid heart disease typically affects the tricuspid and pulmonary valves, causing severe regurgitation and/or stenosis. Valve surgery has been shown to reduce right heart failure and improve long-term prognosis in these patients.

Rapidly Progressive Bilateral Infective Endocarditis Involving Prosthetic Material After Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Infective endocarditis after repaired tetralogy of Fallot can rapidly progress when prosthetic material is involved. We report bilateral multivalvular endocarditis undetected by transthoracic echocardiography but identified by transesophageal echocardiography.

Thrombus‐Induced Prosthetic Valve Dysfunction Demonstrating Hypo‐Attenuated Leaflet Thickening: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Hypo‐attenuated leaflet thickening (HALT) is an important and potentially underrecognized cause of late bioprosthetic valve dysfunction after surgical AVR. Multimodal imaging, including echocardiography and electrocardiogram‐gated computed tomography, is essential for diagnosis, and timely surgical or medical intervention can effectively ...

Accuracy of data routinely collected by Australian hospitals for identifying infective endocarditis, causative organisms and clinical outcomes: a diagnostic accuracy study

Internal Medicine Journal, Volume 56, Issue 9, Page 1544-1552, September 2026.
Abstract Background Infective endocarditis (IE) is a life‐threatening condition, and the surveillance of the incidence is important for monitoring disease trends. Administrative data routinely collected by hospitals offer a feasible and inexpensive method for surveillance of patients with IE, yet the accuracy of coding of IE, causative organisms and ...

Outcomes of aortic valve surgery for rheumatic heart disease in Indigenous Australians: a 27-year longitudinal study

The Cardiothoracic Surgeon
Background In Australia, acute rheumatic fever occurs almost exclusively in young Indigenous peoples, with young- to middle-aged Indigenous people being predominantly affected by rheumatic heart disease. This can result in a need for aortic valve surgery.

When surgery is not an option: case report of transcatheter valve-in-valve replacement for mitral valve dysfunction

The Egyptian Heart Journal
Background Heart valve diseases affect over 100 million people globally, with mitral regurgitation being the most common in developed countries. Bioprosthetic heart valves, frequently used for replacement, typically last 10–15 years before degeneration ...
