Aim: To assess galectin-3 (Gal-3) levels and their relationship with clinical status and right ventricular (RV) performance in adults with RV pressure overload of various mechanisms due to congenital heart disease. Materials & methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted. Patients underwent clinical examination, blood testing and transthoracic echocardiography. Results: The study included 63 patients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries, 41 patients with Eisenmenger syndrome and 20 healthy controls. Gal-3 concentrations were higher in patients compared with controls (7.83 vs 6.11 ng/ml; p = 0.002). Biomarker levels correlated with age, New York Health Association class, N-terminal probrain natriuretic peptide and RV function only in congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries patients. Conclusion: Gal-3 profile in congenital heart disease patients and pressure-overloaded RV differs according to the cause of pressure overload.

SummaryAccessory atrioventricular valvar tissue is uncommon and, on occasion, has been identified as a cause of ventricular outflow obstruction. Accessory tricuspid valvar tissue has been reported to cause subpulmonary obstruction but infrequently has accessory tissue arising from the mitral valve been associated with obstruction. This paper reports two cases of subvalvar obstruction; the first in association with a ventricular septal defect causing subaortic obstruction and the other in association with congenitally corrected transposition and a ventricular septal defect, causing subpulmonary obstruction.

A 53-year-old male patient was presented to our institution with the clinical picture of biventricular failure. The echocardiogram revealed congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries, dextrocardia with situs solitus, atrioventricular discordance and ventriculoatrial discordance, severe systemic and mitral valves regurgitation, and severe pulmonary hypertension (mean pulmonary artery pressure: 51 mm Hg). He underwent heart–lung transplant. He was discharged on postoperative day 25 with left ventricular ejection fraction of 60%–65%, and with oxygen independency.
