Tricuspid valve replacement with a fresh antibiotic preserved tricuspid homograft.
Prosthetic replacement of valves in children is limited by size constraints of the prosthesis and lack of growth potential. In specific situations like infective endocarditis, valve preservation is near impossible and in such instances alternatives are hard to get. Furthermore, in the tricuspid position the long-term results of both mechanical and bioprosthesis are not optimal. We used an innov...
متن کاملHemodynamic results of aortic valvular replacement with the porcine xenograft valve.
Twenty-three patients were evaluated by cardiac catheterization two to 12 months following aortic valve replacement with the porcine xenograft valve. These hemodynamic studies established a mean peak-to-peak systolic gradient across the prosthesis of 23 mm Hg with a range of 6-58 mm Hg. The mean effective orifice area was calculated to be 1.25 cm2. The effective orifice area increased with incr...
متن کاملCarcinoid heart disease: successful tricuspid valve replacement.
A woman aged 46 was found to have severe tricuspid valve disease 14 years after the diagnosis of a malignant carcinoid tumour of the ileum and 33 years after the onset of symptoms attributable to the disease. Increasing ascites requiring repeated paracentesis had not responded to chemotherapy including infusion of 5-fluorouracil and vincristine into the coeliac artery. The tricuspid valve was r...
متن کاملIs tricuspid valve replacement a catastrophic operation?
OBJECTIVE Tricuspid valve replacement (TVR) has a high postoperative mortality, despite recent advances in perioperative care. We report the results of our experience in TVR with an emphasis on early mortality and morbidity and long-term follow-up. METHODS Between October 1994 and August 2007, 80 consecutive TVRs were performed in 78 patients. The mean age was 48+/-14 (range: 20-70) years. Th...
متن کاملTricuspid valve replacement: a five-year appraisal.
Organic disease of the tricuspid valve required surgery in 18% of all patients undergoing valve replacement over a five-year period. Differentiation of organic from functional disease is difficult and may be made only at open-heart surgery. The results of a series of 56 patients who underwent tricuspid valve replacement are presented; of these, 53 had organic disease. Operative mortality at the...
