Polytetrafluoroethylene Pulmonary Valve Conduit Implantation for Chronic Pulmonary Insufficiency

Cardiology in the Young, 2014
AbstractPulmonary valve replacement in patients with congenital cardiac disease is now being performed with more liberal indications in light of the data that chronic pulmonary insufficiency is not a benign lesion. The beneficial effects of valve replacement with low operative mortality and morbidity support this approach.

Idiopathic Right Pulmonary Artery Aneurysm With Pulmonary Valve Insufficiency

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis, 1996
A case of idiopathic right pulmonary artery aneurysm with pulmonary valve insufficiency simulating a mediastinal teratoma occurred in an asymptomatic 13-year-old boy. The key to correct diagnosis was pulmonary angiography. The patient was successfully treated with surgery.

Clinical Significance of Diastolic Dysfunction on Outcomes of Pulmonary Valve Replacement for Pulmonary Insufficiency

Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2022
According to the current guidelines of pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) for pulmonary insufficiency, the age at the time of PVR is becoming younger. However, recent studies have shown that the improvements in mortality have leveled off, making it important to suppress the cumulative lifetime risk of morbidity.

Chronic Pulmonary Valve Insufficiency After Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot: Diagnostics, Reoperations and Reconstruction Possibilities

Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy, 2007
Complete correction of Tetralogy of Fallot, the most common cyanotic congenital heart defect, has now become routine. However, late residual lesions, primarily chronic pulmonary valve insufficiency, may have a negative impact on right-ventricular ...

Congenital insufficiency of the pulmonary valve

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1964
Congenital insufficiency of the pulmonary valve, whether an isolated entity or associated with other intracardiac defects, is rare. The clinical picture varies from one of total absence of symptoms to one in which signs of congestive cardiac failure occur during the neonatal period.

Implantation of the Medtronic Harmony Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve Improves Right Ventricular Size and Function in an Ovine Model of Postoperative Chronic Pulmonary Insufficiency

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2016
Background-Pulmonary insufficiency is the nexus of late morbidity and mortality after transannular patch repair of tetralogy of Fallot. This study aimed to establish the feasibility of implantation of the novel Medtronic Harmony transcatheter pulmonary ...

Clinical recognition of congenital pulmonary valve insufficiency

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1967
Abstract Four patients with congenital pulmonary valve insufficiency were given a correct diagnosis on the basis of clinical evaluation. With one exception, all patients were completely free of toms, tolerated their lesions well, and none showed evidence of pulmonary hypertension.

Pulmonary sequestration presenting as mitral valve insufficiency

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1998
Although pulmonary sequestrations commonly present with infectious complications, problems relating to high blood flow through the lesion are rarely apparent. A 4-year-old girl was referred for cardiac catheterization and evaluation for mitral valve surgery.

Pulmonary Insufficiency: Melody Valve

2016
To date, transcatheter valve replacement for congenital heart disease has focused on the treatment of the dysfunctional right ventricular outflow tract. Following congenital heart disease surgery, the right ventricular outflow tract is often subject to pulmonary regurgitation and/or stenosis, which has been shown to lead to insidious dilation and ...

Organic and relative insufficiency of the pulmonary valve

American Heart Journal, 1937
Abstract The pathological and clinical features of 9 cases of pulmonary insufficiency have been presented. The lesion is ordinarily considered very unusual, yet 4 cases have been observed in the Cincinnati General Hospital within the past year. The etiological factors found in this series of cases were: Rheumatic fever, bacterial endocarditis ...
