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-

Quadrivalvular Involvement in Rheumatic Heart Disease: A Rare Case Report

Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2022
Four-valve involvement (mitral, aortic, tricuspid, and pulmonary) in rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is an exceedingly rare entity. We report the case of a 24-year-old male, a known case of RHD, who presented with dyspnea and presyncope for 2 months.

Dynamically Actuated Reconfigurable Topographical Surface Enables Active Control of Implant‐Associated Infections

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dynamically actuated reconfigurable topographical surface (DARTS) integrates contact‐mediated bactericidal nanotopography with programmable mechanical actuation to actively disrupt bacterial biofilms. Dynamic surface reconfiguration enhances bacterial killing and suppresses implant‐associated infections in vivo, providing a new strategy for active ...
