Pulmonary valve spindle-cell lipoma: A case report

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2023
Primary cardiac tumours are rare and most of them are benign. Myxomas, fibroelastomas and lipomas are common in adults. Primary valvular cardiac tumours are even more rare and affect all four valves in a similar proportion. Valvular lipomas are very rare.

Percutaneous Pulmonary Valve Placement [PDF]

Texas Heart Institute Journal, 2015
Patients with congenital heart disease and pulmonary valve disease need multiple procedures over their lifetimes to replace their pulmonary valves. Chronic pulmonary stenosis, regurgitation, or both have untoward effects on ventricular function and on the clinical status of these patients. To date, all right ventricle–pulmonary artery conduits have had

Isolated Pulmonary Valve Endocarditis [PDF]

Cureus, 2020
Infective endocarditis involving the right side of the heart is typically associated with IV drug abuse and chronic indwelling catheters which commonly involve the tricuspid valve. Isolated pulmonary valve endocarditis (PVE) is a rare clinical entity.

Transthoracic pulmonary valve replacement for severe pulmonary regurgitation following pulmonary atresia repair with an intact ventricular septum: a case report

World Journal of Pediatric Surgery
Pulmonary atresia with an intact ventricular septum (PA/IVS) is a rare congenital heart disease. Pulmonary regurgitation is a major late postsurgical complication and pulmonary valve replacement is the mainstream treatment.We report the case of a 15-year-
