Quadruple Valve Replacement for Carcinoid Heart Disease [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2018 Carcinoid heart disease most frequently involves the tricuspid or, more rarely, the pulmonary valve and presents with right heart failure as 5-HT is metabolized by the lung. Left-sided valve involvement is quite rare. We describe our experience of 3 patients presenting with heart failure secondary to carcinoid heart disease affecting all four cardiac ...

Innovations in Therapies for Heart Valve Disease
Circulation Journal, 2011 The burden of heart valve disease among adults is enormous in the developed world. Increased life expectancy and age-related valvular degeneration remain the predominant contributors to heart valve dysfunction, which if uncorrected lead to congestive heart failure and increased morbidity and mortality.
