Aortic dimensions in patients with bicuspid and tricuspid aortic valves [PDF]

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2013
Whether patients with bicuspid aortic valves are susceptible not only to ascending aortic dilatation but also to dilatation of the remaining aorta is uncertain. This study evaluated the possible correlation between ascending aortic dilatation and dilatation of the remaining aorta in patients with bicuspid and tricuspid aortic valves, respectively.The ...

Physiological and clinical consequences of relief of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction late after repair of congenital heart defects. [PDF]

, 2006
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (RVOTO) is a common problem after repair of congenital heart disease. Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) can treat this condition without consequent pulmonary regurgitation or ...

Right and left-sided infective endocarditis in an IV drug abuser

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2020
Infective endocarditis (IE) involving multiple cardiac valves is uncommon and has more risk of complications. We present an interesting case of infective endocarditis involving both aortic and tricuspid valves, suspected based on clinical presentation ...

Meta-analysis of transcatheter aortic valve implantation for bicuspid versus tricuspid aortic valves [PDF]

Journal of Cardiology, 2019
We performed meta-analysis and meta-regression of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for the bicuspid aortic valve (B-AV) versus the tricuspid aortic valve (T-AV).MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched through June 2018 using PubMed and OVID.

Percutaneous Treatment of Severe Aortic Regurgitation After Surgical Mitral Valve Repair

JACC: Case Reports, 2023
A 54-year-old woman who had recently undergone surgical mitral and tricuspid valve repair was diagnosed with severe aortic regurgitation. She was scheduled for percutaneous treatment and underwent successful transcatheter aortic valve implantation with a

Quadricuspid aortic valve repair with a modified‐tricuspidization technique

Echocardiography, 2022
AbstractIntroductionQuadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is an extremely rare developmental abnormality with an incidence of 0.006%. QAV is an incidental finding that in some patients (23%) may determine aortic regurgitation (AR). Altogether 16% of patients indeed require surgery with AR being the most frequent indication.Methods and resultsWe describe a ...

Hemangioma of the Atherosclerotic Changed Aortic Valve

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2019
The incidence of heart valve hemangioma is very low and is mostly observed in the mitral and tricuspid valve. In 2006, two cases of aortic valve hemangioma were reported for the first time, including one with calcifying aortic valve stenosis.

Biological niches within human calcified aortic valves. Towards understanding of the pathological biomineralization process [PDF]

, 2015
Despite recent advances, mineralization site, its microarchitecture, and composition in calcific heart valve remain poorly understood. A multiscale investigation, using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and ...

Resolution of severe secondary mitral valve regurgitation following aortic valve replacement in infective endocarditis

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2021
We present the case of a patient with infective endocarditis anesthetized for replacement of severely regurgitant aortic valve. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography revealed a new diagnosis of severe secondary mitral regurgitation.

Case report: Self-expanding transcatheter valve implantation (Acurate Neo 2) in a very small native aortic annulus

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a treatment of choice in patients with symptomatic severe aortic valve stenosis (AS) and intermediate-to-high surgical risk.
