AI Article Synopsis

  • - Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has greatly improved aortic valve disease treatment but has highlighted the lack of effective solutions for concurrent tricuspid valve disease.
  • - The review discusses new methods for transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions (TTVI) after TAVR, such as repair, replacement, annuloplasty, and edge-to-edge repair.
  • - It emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration to enhance patient selection and tackle procedural challenges as the field of TTVI evolves.

Article Abstract

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has revolutionized the management of aortic valve disease. However, its success has brought attention to concurrent tricuspid valve disease and the inadequacy of treatments. This review explores the emerging field of transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions (TTVI) after TAVR. We address the pathophysiology and prevalence of post-TAVR tricuspid valve disease and TTVI strategies, including repair, replacement, annuloplasty, and edge-to-edge repair. We also discuss clinical studies assessing TTVI safety and efficacy, including for patients with previous TAVR. Collaboration among clinical disciplines remains crucial for advancing this emerging field to establish best practices regarding patient selection and procedural complexities.

Acute transverse myelitis (ATM) is a neurological disorder characterized by inflammation of the spinal cord, often resulting in sensory, motor, and autonomic dysfunction. Herein, we present a unique case of acute transverse myelitis secondary to hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection complicating infective endocarditis (IE), a rarely reported association. A 29-year-old female presented with progressive lower extremity weakness, urinary retention, and sensory disturbances.

Transcatheter Caval Implantation for Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation.

Curr Cardiol Rep

January 2025

Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Heart Vascular & Thoracic Institute, Cleveland Clinic, 9500 Euclid Avenue, J2-3, Cleveland, OH, 44195, USA.

Purpose Of Review: We describe the evolution of caval valve implantation (CAVI) as a treatment for severe symptomatic tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in the high surgical risk patient.

Recent Findings: Surgical treatment of severe TR is often limited by the high surgical risk of the patients who tend to develop severe secondary TR. Coaptation, annuloplasty, and orthotopic replacement strategies are all limited by annular and leaflet geometry, prior valve repair, and the presence of cardiac implantable device leads.

: Valve-sparing root replacement surgery is an alternative strategy for patients with aortic regurgitation with or without aortic root enlargement. A detailed understanding of the mechanisms of regurgitation and the morphology of the aortic root would be beneficial for predicting the feasibility and success of valve-sparing surgery. This is an exploratory study of the measurement of geometric height in 3D transesophageal echocardiography as a predictor of valve-sparing root replacement for aortic regurgitation.

Aortic valvuloplasty for bicuspid aortic valve carries a risk of postoperative stenosis. We evaluated the haemodynamic differences between aortic valvuloplasty for bicuspid aortic valve, tricuspid aortic valve, and aortic valve replacement by echocardiography. We also assessed whether a higher postoperative pressure gradient affects the outcomes of aortic valvuloplasty for bicuspid aortic valve.
