Right ventricular Hemodynamic Alteration after Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Children with Congenital Heart Disease
Introduction: In patients who underwent surgery to repair Tetralogy of Fallot, right ventricular dilation from pulmonary regurgitation may be result in right ventricular failure, arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Hence, pulmonary valve replacement may be necessary to reduce right ventricular volume overload. The aim of present study was to assess the effects of pulmonary valve replacement on rig...
متن کاملThe right heart and pulmonary circulation (IX). The right heart in adults with congenital heart disease.
Right ventricular dysfunction is not uncommon in adults with congenital heart disease. In congenital heart disease, unlike acquired heart disease, the right ventricle is not always the subpulmonary ventricle: it may support the systemic circulation as it does in patients with transposition complexes. The result is chronic right ventricular pressure overload. In contrast, pulmonary valve regurgi...
متن کاملOccurrence of left-sided heart valve involvement before right-sided heart valve involvement in carcinoid heart disease.
Carcinoids are rare neuroendocrine tumours that occur primarily in the gastrointestinal tract. Carcinoid heart disease is characterized by fibrous plaque deposition on the endocardial surface of the cardiac valves and chambers. It affects the right heart valves in 85% of cases and the left heart valves in 15%. We present an unusual case of a patient with metastatic carcinoid heart disease in wh...
متن کاملRight sided heart evaluation after successful mitral valve replacement.
Introduction: It is well-documented that right-sided heart dysfunction and significant tricuspid valve regurgitation (TVR) have adverse effects on patient outcomes after left-sided heart valve surgery. Therefore, the evaluation of right ventriclular (RV) function and TR severity in patients who had undergone mitral valve replacement (MVR), associated with/without concomitant su...
