The crucial role of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography in diagnosing pulmonary valve endocarditis in patients after transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation: a case report.

Department of Cardiology, Azorg, Merestraat 80, 9300 Aalst, Belgium.
Background: Patients after transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation (TPVI) are at increased risk for infective prosthetic valve endocarditis. Diagnosis of infective endocarditis (IE) following TPVI is particularly difficult due to impaired visualization of the transcatheter pulmonary valve (TPV) with echocardiography [Delgado V, Ajmone Marsan N, de Waha S, Bonaros N, Brida M, Burri H, et al. 2023 ESC guidelines for the management of endocarditis.

Tehran Heart Center, Cardiovascular Diseases Research Institute, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, North Kargar Ave, Tehran 1411713138, Iran.
Background: Since the transcatheter valve-in-valve (ViV) procedure was introduced in 2007, a few cases of infective endocarditis (IE) following the ViV procedure have been reported, which can be predisposed by older age, pre-existing medical conditions, and procedural techniques. Paravalvular abscesses constitute a rare complication of IE, resulting from extending IE beyond the valve annulus, less commonly caused by species. This complication is more common in prosthetic valves, particularly bioprosthetic valves.

Department of Medical Ultrasonics, the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University, Guangzhou, China.
Background: Transcatheter valve-in-valve replacement (TMViVR) is an alternative option for patients with bioprosthetic valve failure (BVF) who are at high surgical risk. Although infective endocarditis (IE) after transcatheter mitral valve-in-valve replacement is unusual, it is associated with significantly high mortality.
Case Presentation: An 81-year-old male patient was admitted with intermittent thoracic tightness, chest pain persisting for 3 years, and shortness of breath with nausea for 1 week.
Infective endocarditis: a growing threat despite medical progress. A look at trends in Spain.
Rev Esp Cardiol (Engl Ed)
January 2025
Unidad de Salud Pública, Prevención y Promoción de la Salud, Área de Gestión Sanitaria Sur de Sevilla, Sevilla, España.
Introduction And Objectives: Infective endocarditis (IE) is a serious public health problem both in Spain and worldwide. This study aimed to analyze the trends in the incidence of IE in Spain from 1992 to 2021.
Methods: We used IE incidence data from the Global Health Data Exchange and population data from the Spanish National Statistics Institute to analyze changes in age-standardized incidence rates.
Outcomes of RDAVR with Coronary Revascularization: 3-year Results from the German INCA Registry.
Thorac Cardiovasc Surg
January 2025
Rhön Klinikum Campus Bad Neustadt, Bad Neustadt, Bayern, Germany.
Background: The long-term outcomes of combined rapid-deployment aortic valve replacement (RDAVR) with coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) are not well explored. We report 3-year results from the INCA registry on combined RDAVR with CABG.
Methods: INCA is a prospective, multicenter registry that enrolled 224 patients undergoing RDAVR with CABG at 10 cardiac institutions in Germany.
