“Inverted Pulmonary Valve,” a Rare Cause of Severe Pulmonary Stenosis

Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging
We describe three cases – two detected prenatally and one postnatally – in which the pulmonary valve exhibited abnormal chord-like attachments to the right ventricle. This produced paradoxical valve motion, characterized by closure in systole and opening

Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

Pulmonary valve endocarditis caused by right ventricular outflow obstruction in association with sinus of valsalva aneurysm: a case report

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2008
Background Right-sided infective endocarditis is uncommon. This is primarily seen in patients with intravenous drug use, pacemaker or central venous lines, or congenital heart disease. The vast majority of cases involve the tricuspid valve.

Observations on Two Previously Unreported Anatomical Factors Relating to the Esophagogastric Junction

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The esophagogastric junction (EGJ) is the anatomical zone where the esophagus ends and the stomach begins. Its competence in preventing gastro‐esophageal reflux has been shown to depend on a number of factors which have been extensively investigated and widely accepted.

Surgical strategies protecting against right ventricular dilatation following tetralogy of Fallot repair

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2018
Background Right ventricular (RV) volume overload increases morbidity and mortality after tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repair. Surgical strategies like pulmonary leaflets sparing and tricuspid valve repair at time of primary repair may decrease RV overload.

Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement for Residual Tricuspid Regurgitation After TEER

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Residual or recurrent tricuspid regurgitation (TR) after prior transcatheter tricuspid edge‐to‐edge (T‐TEER) repair occurs in about 12% of patients within 1 year. Since surgical tricuspid valve repair or replacement is of high risk, treatment options remain scarce.

Interventional Mitral Valve Edge‐to‐Edge Repair in Patients Above 85 Years of Age

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Mitral valve transcatheter‐edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) is routinely performed in patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) at high operative risk, frequently including elderly patients. Patients ≥ 85 years, however, are frequently excluded in clinical studies.

Factors associated with cardiovascular events after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant from the US Multicenter Simultaneous Liver–Kidney Transplant Consortium

Hepatology Communications, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a leading complication after both liver and kidney transplantation. Factors associated with and rates of cardiovascular events (CVEs) after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant (SLKT) are unknown. This was a retrospective cohort study of adult SLKT recipients between 2002 and 2017 at six centers in six United Network ...

Clinical Outcomes of the Allegra Transcatheter System in Bioprosthetic Aortic Valve Failure: A Multicentre Valve‐in‐Valve Registry

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The prevalence of bioprosthetic aortic valve failure is increasing due to the broader use of bioprosthetic valves, both surgical and transcatheter, and an ageing population. Registry data indicate a higher risk of coronary obstruction and elevated gradients following valve‐in‐valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI ...

Combined Transcatheter Tricuspid and Pulmonary Valve Replacement. [PDF]

, 2020
For patients with combined tricuspid and pulmonary valve disease, operative intervention carries high mortality risk. Published reports of combined transcatheter tricuspid and pulmonary valve replacement have been limited to single cases.A retrospective ...
