Clinical Application of Individualized Pulmonary Bi-Orifice for the Reconstruction of Right Ventricular Outflow Tract in Tetralogy of Fallot

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Objective: The study aims to establish a new method in the Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) called the pulmonary valve bi-orifice method (pulmonary annular sparing with an individualized autologous pericardial patch; thus, two orifices are formed at the level ...

Clinical characteristics, management, and outcomes of pulmonary valve myxoma: systematic review of published case reports

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2023
Background Cardiac myxoma is the most common type of primary cardiac tumor, with the majority located in the atrial wall. The tumor is attached to valvular structures in a few cases, of which the pulmonary valve is the least affected.

Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve Replacement [PDF]

open access: yesCardiology and Therapy, 2012
Transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (tPVR) has evolved into a viable alternative to surgical conduit or bioprosthetic valve replacement. This procedure has paved the way for a more advanced approach to congenital and structural interventional cardiology.

A Versatile Engineering Platform for the Fabrication of Prosthetic Venous Valves Using Electrospinning

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Percutaneous prosthetic venous valves are fabricated by embedding stents in an electrospun matrix that extends luminally to form leaflets. The design shields leaflets from hyperplastic cells, isolates struts from blood contact, and avoids discrete anchoring points.

Single ventricle with infective endocarditis and brain abscess: A rare case report

open access: yesJournal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2017
Right-sided valve endocarditis is usually uncommon. Pulmonary valve endocarditis with septic emboli as the complication of a rare congenital heart disease is even unusual.

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Chronic antepartum maternal hyperoxygenation in a case of severe fetal Ebstein's anomaly with circular shunt physiology

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2017
Perinatal mortality remains high among fetuses diagnosed with Ebstein's anomaly of the tricuspid valve. The subgroup of patients with pulmonary valve regurgitation is at particularly high risk.

Pulmonary Valve Replacement and Redo Pulmonary Valve Replacement via Ministernotomy

open access: yesHeart, Lung and Circulation, 2022
Minimally invasive cardiac surgery is mainly dedicated to acquired left-sided valve diseases. Ministernotomy is widely used for aortic valve repair or replacement, whereas pulmonary valve repair via this approach has been reported only recently. This article aims to describe the use of ministernotomy for pulmonary valve replacement in adult congenital ...

Farnesyltransferase Deficiency in Cardiomyocytes Initiates Senescence and Contributes to Cardiac Fibrosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lipid overload suppresses SREBF2‐mediated FNTB expression, leading to defective Lamin A maturation and nuclear envelope instability. This nuclear catastrophe triggers a pro‐fibrotic senescence program in cardiomyocytes. Notably, restoring nuclear integrity via AAV9‐based gene therapy effectively attenuates cardiac remodeling, identifying the ...
