Myxosarcoma of the Pulmonary Valve
Chest, 1972A patient is described who had myxosarcoma originating from the anterior cusp of the pulmonary valve and extending into both proximal pulmonary arteries. The malignant nature of the tumor was not recognized at time of surgery; therefore, subtotal resection was performed to preserve the pulmonary valve.

Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy, 2011
The last decade has generated enormous advances in the diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities for diseases of the pulmonary valve. There have been advances in all age groups from fetus to adult, with not only the development of novel treatments (fetal interventions, new surgical strategies and percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation), but also an ...

Surgical Valve Choices for Pulmonary Valve Replacement
Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2023The range of valve choices available to the cardiac surgeon for placement in the pulmonary position continues to expand. This article will provide a brief compendium of the most clinically relevant among these choices and review the contemporary literature regarding their relative durability as well as risk factors for structural valve deterioration ...

Pulmonary Valve Papillary Fibroelastoma
Heart, Lung and Circulation, 2009A 67-year-old woman with a past history of hypertension and type 1 diabetes mellitus, complicated by ischaemic heart disease, retinopathy and nephropathy, presented with several months of worsening dyspnoea and clinical signs of right heart failure. Transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) showed normal left ventricular systolic function with a restrictive ...

Fetal Anatomy: The Pulmonary Valve in Fetal Pulmonary Valve Disease
2016The pulmonary valve atresia/critical valve stenosis is a congenital heart defect which develops during the fetal life and is characterized by a wide spectrum of severity as result of the blood flow remodeling process of the right ventricle outflow. In the atretic valve there is absence of communication between the right ventricle outflow and the size ...

Pulmonary valve disease: Pulmonary valve stenosis
2015Introduction Transcatheter therapy of valvar pulmonary stenosis is one of the rst, if not the rst, catheter intervention that has facilitated the application of this technology for children so that many of them can benet by less invasive treatment for structural congenital heart defects.

Pulmonary valve morphology after balloon dilatation of pulmonary valve stenosis
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis, 1985AbstractPercutaneous balloon valvuloplasty (BV) for pulmonic valve stenosis (PS) is increasingly becoming a nonsurgical alternative in patient management [1–3]. However, the mechanism by which BV dilates the obstructive lesion has not been firmly established [4].

Pulmonary Valve Reconstruction in Absent Pulmonary Valve Syndrome: A New Technique
Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 1997In patients with absent pulmonary valve syndrome, the relief of the pulmonary regurgitation at the time of primary repair improves both the early and late results. Though homograft and heterograft valves and conduits have been used for this purpose, both are not easily available and are known for late failure.

Pulmonary autografts have shown a low incidence of early failure and late structural deterioration when placed in the aortic position yet the potential value of the pulmonary valve as a replacement device has not been widely considered. Since the mechanical suitability of pulmonary valves for the high stress aortic position is unclear, we set out to ...

1985
The pulmonary valve has traditionally been considered the most difficult of the cardiac valves to record echo-cardiographically. These difficulties relate to (1) the normal position of the valve beneath the lingula of the left lung which restricts access of the exploring ultrasonic beam to the valve leaflets and (2) its plane of motion relative to the ...
