Article Abstract
BackgroundResidual pulmonary valve disease (PVD) including pulmonary stenosis (PS), pulmonary regurgitation (PR), or both remains a known complication following repair of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). We sought to clarify prevalence, progression, and prognostic impact of residual PVD.MethodsWe identified consecutive patients who underwent repair of TOF at our institution between January 2004 and July 2023. Based on echocardiographic measurements following repair, residual PVD was defined: nonsevere PVD (PS < 25 mm Hg; PR

Correction of Tricuspid Regurgitation in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension.
JACC Case Rep
September 2025
Department of Cardiology, Monaldi Hospital, Naples, Italy. Electronic address:
Background: Pulmonary hypertension is a contraindication to correction of tricuspid regurgitation.
Case Summary: A 75-year-old Italian woman with previous episodes of right heart failure was diagnosed with World Health Organization (WHO) functional class IV pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) complicated by torrential tricuspid regurgitation. After 6 months of treatment with diuretic agents, macitentan, and tadalafil, she improved to WHO functional class III, with a pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) decreasing from 5.

Unravelling the "diabetes discrepancy": The presence of chronic complications is a hallmark of worse short-term outcomes in patients with diabetes mellitus after transcatheter aortic valve replacement.
Am J Med Sci
September 2025
The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences, Washington, DC.
Background: In transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), there is a notable "diabetes discrepancy", where worse/better/similar outcomes were all found for patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Such divergent findings pose a challenge for clinicians to accurately assess the risks for DM patients undergoing TAVR. We hypothesized the presence of chronic complications could be linked to worse post-TAVR outcomes in DM patients.
