Aortic regurgitation is associated with numerous eponymous signs. It has been reported severe aortic regurgitation also due to a quadricuspid aortic valve, a rare congenital anomaly. We present a case of revelation of quadricuspid aortic valve at left ventriculography with aortography in a 71-year-old Italian woman with severe aortic regurgitation.

Ross procedure for aortic regurgitation versus stenosis in adults with and without autograft support.

Department of Cardiac Surgery, University Hospital Quironsalud Madrid, Spain.
Objectives: The Ross procedure for aortic regurgitation (AR) and abnormal aortic valve morphologies is associated with an increased risk of autograft dilatation. Autograft support may ameliorate this problem. We analyzed the results for all haemodynamic lesions and the effect of autograft support.

Rheumatic heart disease remains prevalent in some regions of Australia and New Zealand. Echocardiography is the gold standard for detection and diagnosis using the 2023 World Heart Federation guidelines. The guidelines describe specific features of mitral and aortic valve morphology and define pathological regurgitation associated with RHD.

Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Division of Heart and Lung Disease, Utrecht University Medical Center, Utrecht, The Netherlands.
Objective: Aortic valve repair/sparing have been established as effective treatments for aortic regurgitation and/or aortic aneurysms. However, concerns remain regarding long-term durability, reproducibility, and patient selection. This study aims to asses long-term clinical and echocardiographic outcomes, with a focus on aortic regurgitation grade and left ventricular ejection fraction evolution, in adults undergoing these procedures.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAortic regurgitation is the third most common valve lesion with increasing prevalence secondary to an ageing population. Transthoracic echocardiography plays a vital role in the identification and assessment of aortic regurgitation and proves essential in monitoring severity and determining the timing of intervention. Building on the foundations of previous British Society of Echocardiography (BSE) recommendations, this BSE guideline presents an update on how to approach an echocardiographic assessment of aortic regurgitation.

Background: Prognosis assessments for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) patients remain challenging, particularly as the indications for TAVI expand to lower-risk patients. This study assessed the prognostic value of the tricuspid regurgitation impact on outcomes (TRIO) score in patients after TAVI.
Methods: This single-center study included 530 consecutive patients who underwent TAVI.
