Tricuspid Leaflet Gap-Reduction Maneuvers During Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Repair
Transcatheter tricuspid valve edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) has emerged as an option for treating patients with tricuspid regurgitation. Few studies have explored intraprocedural maneuvers to optimize leaflet-grasping T-TEER in order to improve technical ...

Massively dilated right atrium masquerading as a mediastinal tumor
Severe tricuspid valve insufficiency causes right atrial dilatation, venous congestion, and reduced atrial contractility, and may eventually lead to right heart failure. We report a case of a patient with severe tricuspid valve insufficiency, right heart

Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement for Residual Tricuspid Regurgitation After TEER
ABSTRACT Background Residual or recurrent tricuspid regurgitation (TR) after prior transcatheter tricuspid edge‐to‐edge (T‐TEER) repair occurs in about 12% of patients within 1 year. Since surgical tricuspid valve repair or replacement is of high risk, treatment options remain scarce.

Non-linear finite element analyses of the aortic heart valve [PDF]
Includes bibliographical references.Finite element models of the aortic heart valve have been successfully used in the past to gain insight into the mechanics of the valve and to aid in understanding of valve failure.

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.

Successful Percutaneous Retrieval of an Embolized MitraClip From the Right Subclavian Artery
ABSTRACT Single leaflet device attachment (SLDA) after mitral transcatheter valve edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) has been reported in up to 5% of patients. However, complete embolization of the M‐TEER device is exceedingly rare. Device retrievals in all previously reported cases were completed by vascular surgery cut down at the end. In this case, we are

MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation
Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...

The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle
Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Tricuspid valve repair in hypoplastic left heart syndrome [PDF]
ObjectivesCurrently, the survival for the Norwood procedure for hypoplastic left heart syndrome is approximately 90% in selected centers. However, the development of tricuspid regurgitation remains a significant obstacle to successful staged repair in a ...

Introduction: The tricuspid valve (TV) is a complex structure (Lamers et al. (1995) [1]). The most common cause of pathologic tricuspid regurgitation is functional, due to annular dilatation with normal leaflet morphology (Sagie et al.
