Tricuspid regurgitation can be due to different causes and mechanisms. Among these, cardiac involvement in carcinoid disease is a rare cause of tricuspid valve disease with a peculiar echocardiographic aspect. We report the case of a 59-year-old woman, with no past medical history, who was recently found to have a heart murmur and signs of right heart failure.

Introduction: Although myocardial injury is common after blunt chest trauma, tricuspid valve injury associated with traumatic atrial septal defect resulting in acute hypoxia is an infrequent event. We report an unusual case of blunt chest trauma referred to us for unexplained hypoxemia, emphasizing the unusual nature of injury and the importance of comprehensive cardiac evaluation in such cases.

Article Synopsis
- A patient experienced repeated ischemic strokes after undergoing surgery to repair a mitral valve, despite not having obvious systemic thrombophilia.
- Even with anticoagulation treatment, the patient's thromboembolism did not improve.
- After the removal of the prosthetic valve, the patient showed no symptoms and had normal valve function, suggesting an unusual reaction to the prosthetic material may have caused the issues.

Article Synopsis
- Thyrotoxicosis is linked to cardiovascular issues and may lead to conditions like tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and mitral regurgitation (MR), though research on these specific heart problems is still limited.
- A systematic review analyzed 57 case reports of 62 predominantly female patients (average age 45.77 years) with thyrotoxicosis, revealing improvements in heart conditions like TR, MR, heart failure (HF), and pulmonary hypertension (PH) after treatment.
- The study concludes that treating hyperthyroidism can lead to significant clinical recovery in heart issues within six months, driven by both direct effects of thyroid hormones and other related factors.
