Tumor Plop in a Febrile Child: Unusual Presentation of Tricuspid Valve Endocarditis.

ABSTRACT: Tricuspid valve endocarditis in a structurally normal heart of child is extremely rare and mysterious disease, which may mimic several other illnesses. We are reporting here a six-year-old child who presented with prolonged fever and unusual auscultatory sound of tumor plop, later proven to having tricuspid valve endocarditis by 2D echocardiography. The patient underwent surgical excision of the vegetations with repair of the tricuspid valve leaflets with successful outcome.

Unusual Presentation of Aortic Valve Infective Endocarditis in a Dog: Aorto-Cavitary Fistula, Tricuspid Valve Endocarditis, and Third-Degree Atrioventricular Block.

Project description:A 2-year-old Boxer with a history of subaortic stenosis and immunosuppressant therapy developed aortic valve infective endocarditis. On echocardiographic examination with simultaneous electrocardiographic tracing, multiple uncommon periannular complications of the aortic valve endocarditis were found, including aorto-cavitary fistula with diastolic left-to-right shunt, tricuspid valve endocarditis, and third-degree atrioventricular block. Necropsy confirmed the above echocardiographic findings. Although aortic valve endocarditis represents a well-known disease entity in dogs, the dynamic nature of this condition may allow development of complex and uncommon echocardiographic features.

Tricuspid Valve Leaflet Repair and Augmentation for Infective Endocarditis.

Project description:Intravenous drug use has increased substantially over the past decade, with heroin abuse more than doubling. Injection drug use-related infective endocarditis hospitalizations have similarly increased over the same period. Right-sided infective endocarditis is strongly associated with intravenous drug use, and 90% of right-sided endocarditis involves the tricuspid valve. During the period of the opioid epidemic, tricuspid-related endocarditis rates have increased, while the incidence of surgery for tricuspid endocarditis has increased as much as five-fold. Within this context, optimizing surgical technique for valve repair is increasingly important. In this report, we examine the indications for tricuspid valve surgery for endocarditis, describe specific techniques for tricuspid valve leaflet repair and augmentation, and assess postoperative care and surgical outcomes after both tricuspid valve repair and replacement for infective endocarditis.

Unusual cause of tricuspid valve obstruction after surgical aortic valve replacement.

Project description:Unruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm can present with manifestations due to local compression or protrusion into the chambers. Right ventricular inflow obstruction is a rare manifestation. This image highlights the tricuspid valve obstruction due to a Valsalva aneurysm in a patient after surgical aortic valve replacement.

Diastolic aorto-right-atrial fistulation in aortic and tricuspid valve endocarditis.

Project description:Background Aorto-right-atrial fistula in native valve endocarditis is very rare. Case Description A 45-year-old woman was referred with an endocarditis with a perforated right cusp of the aortic valve with at least moderate insufficiency and an affected tricuspid annulus with vegetations. In addition to this, an aorto-cavitary fistula from the aortic sinus to the right atrium with a holodiastolic left-right shunt had been detected. Streptococci viridans were found as underlying pathogen. Complete replacement of the aortic root and resection of the fistula were performed with good result. Conclusion Endocarditis with fistula formation is rare and has to be treated aggressively.

Aortic valve endocarditis in patients with bicuspid and tricuspid aortic valves.

Project description:ObjectiveTo determine the long-term survival and rate of reoperation after surgical treatment of infective endocarditis (IE) in patients with a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and patients with a tricuspid aortic valve (TAV).MethodsBetween 1997 and 2017, 210 patients underwent surgical treatment for native aortic valve endocarditis, including 51 patients with BAV (24%) and 159 patients with TAV (76%). Data were obtained from the Society of Thoracic Surgeons data warehouse and hospital medical record review, supplemented with surveys and national death index data for more complete follow-up.ResultsCompared with the TAV IE group, the BAV IE group was significantly younger (42 years vs 54 years) and had lower incidence rates of hypertension, coronary artery disease, and congestive heart failure (CHF). There were no significant between-group differences in postoperative stroke, sepsis, pacemaker requirement, or in-hospital mortality (2.0% vs 4.4%). Liver disease was a risk factor for operative mortality (odds ratio [OR], 13; 95% CI, 3.3-30; P = .0002). The 10-year survival rate was 64% for the BAV group versus 46% for the TAV group (P = .0191). Significant risk factors for long-term mortality were intravenous drug use (hazard ratio [HR], 4.5; P < .0001), preoperative renal failure requiring dialysis (HR, 4.13; P < .0001), CHF (HR, 1.7; P = .04), and liver disease (HR, 2.6; P = .02). The HR for BAV was 0.67 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.3-1.4). The 10-year postoperative cumulative incidence of reoperation was significantly higher in the BAV patients compared with the TAV patients (5.7% vs 4.5%; P = .045) with an HR of 2.4 (95% CI, 0.8-7.1; P = .11) for BAV.ConclusionsBAV patients develop IE requiring surgery at a younger age than TAV patients, but have significantly better long-term survival. Early detection of BAV is important to prevent IE and provide aggressive surgical treatment should IE occur.
