Published: December 2021

We report 3 cases of functional tricuspid regurgitation and demonstrate a novel tricuspid repair technique through the right atrioventricular groove without cardiopulmonary bypass or open heart surgery, which provides a new idea for the treatment of functional tricuspid regurgitation.

Background: Right ventricular (RV) failure is a well-recognized pivotal prognostic factor of adverse outcomes in pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH), while RV dilation provides significant implications for adaptive or maladaptive changes. PAH is a predominant cause of mortality among patients with connective tissue disease (CTD). This study aims to elucidate the prognostic significance of RV morphology, as assessed by echocardiography (ECHO), in with CTD associated with PAH (CTD-PAH).

Background: Given their importance as a metric for health care evaluation, this study's aim was to evaluate the rates of surgical and catheter reinterventions for children with functionally single-ventricle (f-SV) congenital heart disease (CHD) undergoing staged palliation.

Methods: We undertook a retrospective cohort study of children born with f-SV CHD between 2000 and 2018 in England and Wales, using the national registry, with survival ascertained in 2020. Competing risk analysis was used to describe the incidence of additional procedures that occurred first, during follow-up, accounting for competing events of death or transplantation.

Background: Tricuspid anteroposterior patch (TRAPP) repair aims to address shortcomings of traditional annuloplasty in functional tricuspid regurgitation by selectively enlarging and translocating the anterior and posterior leaflets, but optimal patch width has not been identified.

Methods: An ex vivo model of the tricuspid valve was established in fresh porcine hearts by pneumatic pressurization of the ventricles. TRAPP repair was performed with patches of varying width (group 1, 1.

Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is related to survival and right atrial (RA) size and function may play a role. Our objective is to assess the impact of RA function measured by strain (RAS) on outcome and end organ congestion. We enrolled 134 patients (mean age 73 ± 13 years, 62% women) with any TR grade or etiology and a complete echocardiogram, clinical follow up and renal function assessment.
