Unusual cause of tricuspid valve obstruction after surgical aortic valve replacement
ABSTRACT Unruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm can present with manifestations due to local compression or protrusion into the chambers. Right ventricular inflow obstruction is a rare manifestation. This image highlights the tricuspid valve obstruction due to a Valsalva aneurysm in a patient after surgical aortic valve ...

ABSTRACT Background The optimal choice between balloon‐expandable (BE) and self‐expanding (SE) transcatheter heart valves (THVs) in patients with low‐flow low‐gradient aortic stenosis (LFLG AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remains unclear.

Tricuspidization: repair of a quadricuspid aortic valve
Quadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is rare. However, to repair a quadricuspid aortic valve is not as easy to realize as in bicuspid aortic valve. The surgical design is crucial to rebuild the stable structure. Here we present a case of repair of quadricuspid aortic valve using the strategy of tricuspidization.

Determinants of Aortic Stenosis Progression in Bicuspid and Tricuspid Aortic Valves
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is associated with a faster progression of aortic stenosis (AS). Whether the determinants of AS progression are the same or different in patients with BAV vs tricuspid aortic valve (TAV) is unknown. The aim of this study was to identify the factors associated with the progression of AS in patients with BAV vs patients with ...

ABSTRACT Background Prosthesis‐patient mismatch (PPM) remains common following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and is associated with worse clinical outcomes. PPM is of particular concern in small aortic annuli (SAA). Aims To compare the incidence, predictors, and long‐term impact of PPM in SAA TAVR.

Echocardiographic evaluation of velocity ratio, velocity time integral ratio, and pulmonary valve area in dogs with pulmonary valve stenosis. [PDF]
BackgroundVelocity ratio, velocity time integral (VTI) ratio, and pulmonary valve area indexed to body surface area (iPVA) are methods of assessment of pulmonary valve stenosis (PS) severity that are less dependent on blood flow. Studies evaluating these

ABSTRACT Background Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the valent type of valvular heart disease, caused by primary leaflet lesions or annular dilatation secondary to left ventricular dysfunction. It can lead to a series of complications such as volume overload, exacerbated pulmonary congestion, and heart failure, significantly impacting patient prognosis ...

Comparative study of wall shear stress at the ascending aorta for different mechanical heart valve prostheses [PDF]
An experimental study is reported which investigates the wall shear stress (WSS) distribution in a transparent model of the human aorta comparing a bileaflet mechanical heart valve (BMHV) with a trileaflet mechanical heart valve (TMHV) in physiological ...
