Trileaflet reconstruction of pulmonary valve for acute pulmonary valve insufficiency. [PDF]
Iatrogenic pulmonary valve insufficiency is a life-threatening complication and its treatment options pose another challenge. Easily accessible mechanical valves have high complication rates. Xenografts and homografts are expensive materials and are not readily accessible in case of emergency.

Pulmonary Valve Repair for Patients With Acquired Pulmonary Valve Insufficiency [PDF]
Pulmonary valve (PV) insufficiency is often an acquired condition after treatment for pulmonary stenosis. It is recognized that PV insufficiency has serious deleterious effects. Although surgical replacement of the PV is efficacious, artificial valves inevitably fail and require re-intervention. The purpose of this study was to summarize our experience

Relative Insufficiency of the Pulmonary Valves. [PDF]
I shall make no apologies for presenting to the Society the report of a case and a brief paper upon so rare a condition as insufficiency of the pulmonary valves and the rarer condition of relative insufficiency. If we would make accurate anatomic diagnoses of the commoner valvular affections, we must have some familiarity with the signs of the rare ...

Congenital Insufficiency of the Pulmonary Valve [PDF]
Congenital insufficiency of the pulmonary valve may result if the valvular cusps develop faultily or fail to develop. It is commonly associated with ventricular septal defect, with or without pulmonary stenosis. Under these conditions a continuous precordial murmur may be present. Less commonly, congenital pulmonary valvular insufficiency may appear as

Isolated pulmonary valve endocarditis with rapid progression: a case report and literature review
Background Isolated pulmonary valve endocarditis (IPE) is rare, accounting for 1.5–2% of all cases of infective endocarditis. Herein, we describe a case of isolated pulmonary valve endocarditis with rapid progression in a 28-year-old male.
