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

Pulmonary valve replacement in patients with corrected tetralogy of Fallot [PDF]
Introduction: Development of pulmonary insufficiency in patients with surgically corrected tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) may lead to severe right heart failure with serious consequences. We herein present our experience with pulmonary valve replacement (PVR)

Introduction: Transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) is increasingly used to treat complications related to dysfunctional right ventricular outflow tracts (RVOT). Candidacy is limited by RVOT diameter and coronary artery anatomy. We present the

Early postoperative interventional ASD-closure for severe atrial right to left shunt in a neonate with common arterial trunk [PDF]
Although closure of an atrial septal defect (ASD II) with an occluding device in the first year of life is not a routine procedure, it is a feasible treatment, even in neonates.

4D Flow Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Uncovers the Cause of Bioprosthetic Pulmonary Valve Dysfunction
We present a case of a 20-year-old man with tetralogy of Fallot status post-repair with a transannular patch and left pulmonary artery reconstruction at age 1 and subsequent pulmonary valve replacement with bioprosthetic valve 3 years ago.

Infective endocarditis of a forgotten valve
A 62-years-old man with interventricular communication was admitted to the hospital with a 6-month history of constitutional symptoms. The patient was feverish and a grade III/VI continuous murmur was noted in all precordium.

Hemolysis and Pulmonary Insufficiency following Right Ventricular Assist Device Implantation
We report a case of severe hemolysis and pulmonary valve insufficiency (PI) following right ventricular support using a paracorporeal pneumatic pump (Abiomed, Danvers, MA, USA).
