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.

Mitral Valve Prolapse Presenting as Unilateral Pulmonary Edema Mimicking Pneumonia

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT A 40‐year‐old man presented with right‐sided pulmonary infiltrates mimicking pneumonia. Imaging and transesophageal echocardiography revealed unilateral pulmonary edema (UPE) from acute severe mitral regurgitation (MR) due to chordal rupture. Unilateral infiltrates with rapid deterioration warrant early echocardiographic evaluation.

Culture‐Negative Septic Pulmonary Embolism Secondary to Lower‐Limb Cellulitis Following Recent Dengue Fever Complicated by Hydropneumothorax: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Secondary bacterial infection and septic pulmonary embolism should be considered in patients recovering from dengue fever who develop focal soft‐tissue infection, respiratory symptoms, or markedly elevated inflammatory markers. Characteristic radiological findings may establish the diagnosis even when blood cultures are negative and infective ...

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 ...

Association of Transition Zone Burden With Recurrence in Elderly Patients With Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Without Low‐Voltage Areas

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 9, September 2026.
Transition zone (TZ) is defined as regions with bipolar voltage between 0.5 and 1 mV in left atrium. In 158 elderly PAF patients without low‐voltage areas (LVA), TZ burden is associated with reduced left atrial conduction velocity (LACV) and independently predicts atrial tachyarrhythmia (ATA) recurrence following CPVI.
