Perforation of the atretic pulmonary valve. Long-term follow-up.
OBJECTIVES We evaluated the long-term results of perforation of the pulmonary valve in patients with pulmonary atresia with an intact ventricular septum (PA-IVS). BACKGROUND Interventional perforation of the pulmonary valve is considered the elective first stage treatment for PA-IVS, particularly in patients with a tripartite right ventricle (RV) and normal coronary circulation. However, the ...
متن کاملUnilateral pulmonary edema secondary to mitral valve perforation.
A 52-year-old hypertensive man, with a 40–pack-a-year smoking history, presented to an outside hospital with dyspnea, fever, and cough. Chest x-ray demonstrated rightsided infiltrates. He was treated with antibiotics for presumed pneumonia. However, the patient presented the following morning with worsening dyspnea and hemoptysis. Bronchioalveolar lavage and right lung biopsy under general anes...
متن کاملTranscatheter pulmonary valve perforation using chronic total occlusion wire in pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum
BACKGROUND Perforation of pulmonary valve using radiofrequency ablation in pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PA IVS) is a treatment of choice. However, significant cost of the equipment limits its utility, especially in the developing economies. OBJECTIVE To assess the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of perforation of pulmonary valve using chronic total occlusion (CTO) wires...
متن کاملAortic valve leaflet perforation after mitral valve repair.
A 32-year-old patient with symptomatic severe aortic regurge, 6 weeks after mitral valve repair, was admitted for aortic valve surgery. No preoperative clinical data consistent with infective endocarditis could be detected. Preoperative transthoracic echocardiography showed aortic leaflet perforation affecting non coronary cusp. During operation, leaflet perforation was detected and closed comp...
متن کاملisolated pulmonary valve endocarditis
infective endocarditis is one of the most severe complications of parenteral drug abuse. the outstanding clinical feature of infective endocarditis in intravenous drug abusers is the high incidence of right-sided valve infection, and the tricuspid valve is involved in 60% to 70% of the cases. we herein report a case of isolated pulmonic valve infective endocarditis with a native pulmonary valve.
