Physiological and clinical consequences of relief of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction late after repair of congenital heart defects. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (RVOTO) is a common problem after repair of congenital heart disease. Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) can treat this condition without consequent pulmonary regurgitation or ...

Tricuspid Valve Repair for Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation [PDF]

open access: yesOperative Techniques in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1998
Tricuspid valve insufficiency can be caused by organic disease of the tricuspid valve (rheumatic disease, endocarditis, carcinoid, and so on); however, most tricuspid regurgitation encountered in clinical practice occurs in patients with chronic left-sided valvular lesions.

Three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography incremental value in a case with a rare combination of tricuspid valve prolapse and rheumatic mitral valve stenosis

open access: yesThe Egyptian Heart Journal, 2015
Introduction: The tricuspid valve (TV) is a complex structure (Lamers et al. (1995) [1]). The most common cause of pathologic tricuspid regurgitation is functional, due to annular dilatation with normal leaflet morphology (Sagie et al.

eComment. Adjustable tricuspid annuloplasty for functional tricuspid regurgitation [PDF]

open access: yesInteractive CardioVascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2013
Functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) is a neglected and underestimated pathology. It occurs mostly from annular dilatation and right ventricular enlargement, which is frequent secondary to left-sided heart failure from myocardial or valvular causes, right ventricular volume and pressure overload, and dilatation of the cardiac chambers.

Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Implantation of NaviGate Bioprosthesis in a Preclinical Model

open access: yesJACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2018
Patients with isolated functional or recurrent tricuspid regurgitation are often denied surgery because they are considered to be at high risk. Transcatheter valve therapy provides a less invasive alternative for tricuspid regurgitation associated with ...

Functional tricuspid regurgitation: Feasibility of transcatheter interventions [PDF]

open access: yesCleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine, 2020
Functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) develops secondary to annular dilation and leaflet tethering as a result of right ventricular remodeling. Invasive surgery for isolated TR is rarely performed due to high inpatient mortality. Transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention is an appealing solution but is challenging as crucial structures are closely ...

Tricuspid surgery at the time of LVAD implant: A critique

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a common finding in patients with end stage heart failure referred for implantation of left ventricular assist devices. While functional TR frequently resolves after left ventricular unloading, patients with residual and ...

Non-invasive assessment of pulmonary vascular resistance in pulmonary hypertension: Current knowledge and future direction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Pulmonary Hypertension (PHT) is relatively common, dangerous and under-recognised. Pulmonary hypertension is not a diagnosis in itself; it is caused by a number of differing diseases each with different treatments and prognoses.

Clinical efficacy of two different tricuspid annuloplasty techniques in left cardiac valve surgery

open access: yesAsian Pacific Journal of Tropical Medicine, 2018
Objective: To investigate the mid-and long-term clinical effects of tricuspid valvuloplasty with the implantation of an artificial plastic ring. Methods: Data of 677 patients who had functional tricuspid regurgitation and left cardiac valve disease and ...
