[Right-sided prosthetic cardiac valve thrombosis: value of cinefluoroscopy in the diagnosis and follow-up of thrombolytic treatment]

30 Sep 2009 HISTORY: A 33-year-old woman (Pt. A) with a prosthetic cardiac valve in the pulmonary position [CarboMedics bileaflet valve, diameter 23 mm] as part of the repair of a tetralogy of Fallot 4 years previously, and a 51-year-old woman (Pt. B) with a ... Read more...

Giant cardiac lipoma in the ventricular septum involving the tricuspid valve.

29 Sep 2009 We report a case with a primary giant cardiac lipoma in the right ventricle attached to the interventricular septum that involved the chordae of the septal leaflet of the tricuspid valve. As the potential for malignancy was low, tricuspid valve ... Read more...

Clinical and echocardiographic impact of functional tricuspid regurgitation repair at the time of mitral valve replacement.

29 Sep 2009 BACKGROUND: The indications for tricuspid valve repair in the setting of mitral valve disease and concomitant tricuspid regurgitation (TR) remain unclear. We examined patients undergoing mitral valve replacement (MVR) to determine the effect of TR ... Read more...
