Heart Transplantation for Congenital Heart Disease

World Journal for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery, 2011
Congenital heart disease affects 0.8% of all live-born infants. Some of the malformed hearts can at best be palliated by conventional surgical or catheter interventions from the start.

Carcinoid heart disease

International Journal of Cardiology, 2008
The carcinoid syndrome is usually evident when enterochromaffin (EC) cell-derived neuroendocrine tumors (carcinoids) metastasize to the liver. In addition to carcinoid symptomatology, about 40% of patients exhibit carcinoid heart disease (CHD) with fibrotic endocardial plaques and associated heart valve dysfunction. The mechanism behind CHD development

The Right Heart in Congenital Heart Disease

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2003
The clinical presentation of right ventricular (RV) dysfunction due to congenital heart disease (CHD) is similar to that of cor pulmonale. RV volume and pressure loads, and primary RV myocardial dysfunction are mechanisms by which CHD affects right heart function.

Current Opinion in CARDIOLOGY, 1995
Hypertension is associated with the remodeling of left ventricular geometry and abnormalities of function that may precede geometric changes. Rather than a specific disease, "hypertensive heart failure" is a spectrum of disorders that result from left ventricular geometric changes and comorbid conditions.

VALVULAR HEART DISEASE

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2000
Given the high prevalence of valvular heart disease, primary care physicians need to be familiar with the most common valvular heart diseases and their clinical manifestations. Knowledge of the natural history of the most common valvular heart diseases is important because the onset of symptoms often is the point at which intervention becomes necessary.
