Article Abstract

A 5-year-old child, weighing 15 kg, with three previous sternotomies, presented with right heart failure due to severe stenosis and regurgitation of the bioprosthetic tricuspid valve. A percutaneous tricuspid valve-in-valve procedure with an Edwards S3 valve was ofered for compassionate use, performed with no complications and with a significant clinical condition improvement.

Redefining TAVR Valve Sizing: A Validated Multiplanar Approach for Both Bicuspid and Tricuspid Valves.

JACC Cardiovasc Interv

Background: Annular measurements traditionally guide transcatheter heart valve sizing in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Although supra-annular assessment has emerged as a crucial consideration, particularly in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) cases, current measurement methods lack standardization and reproducibility.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to develop and validate a standardized multiplanar approach for transcatheter heart valve sizing integrating both annular and supra-annular measurements.

Tricuspid regurgitation is associated with increased risk of heart failure and mortality. To address this, tricuspid valve (TV) interventions in the form of transcatheter and surgical TV procedures have rapidly emerged. TV interventions are associated with a significant risk of conduction system disease necessitating permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation.

A review of novel structural heart procedures for the anesthesiologist.

Curr Opin Anaesthesiol

Department of Anesthesiology, Tufts Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

Purpose Of Review: There has been significant growth in the volume, complexity, and types of transcatheter cardiac interventions for valvular heart disease over the last 10 years. This review is intended to cover both common structural heart procedures, as well as recent advancements, and the anesthetic considerations of these procedures.

Recent Findings: While contextualizing within a historical perspective, the review covers mitral and tricuspid valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair, transcatheter mitral, and tricuspid valve replacement, with focus on valve-in-valve, valve-in-ring, and valve-in-native procedures, laceration of the anterior mitral leaflet to prevent outflow obstruction, septal scoring along the midline endocardium, transcatheter aortic valve implantation with focus on bioprosthetic, or native aortic scallop intentional laceration to prevent iatrogenic coronary artery obstruction.
