Objective:- To analyze the results of surgical correction of patients with tricuspid pathology in rheumatic multi-valvular heart disease. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed outcomes of surgical correction of tricuspid valve disease in 292 patients with rheumatic multi-valvular heart defects, who underwent surgery in our clinic. Results: The age of our patients ranged from 12 to 74 years (mean age 36.7 (9.4) years), among them 197 (67.4%) women and 95 (32.6%) - men. According to the degree of circulatory disorders, 21 (7.2%) patients were in NYHA class III- and 271 (92.8%) patients - class IV. Of them 235 (80.5%) patients were operated by the method of De Vega using plastic fibrous ring.- After tricuspid valve (TV) and fibrous ring repair- in 26.9% - tricuspid regurgitation disappeared, in 62.8% - regurgitation decreased to the 1st degree, and the remaining 10.3% of patients had- 2nd- (moderate) degree tricuspid regurgitation. In 7 (2.38%) cases of infective endocarditis, the "open heart surgery" correction - replacement of TV with biological prosthesis was made. Creation of the bicuspid tricuspid valve techniques was used in 13.4% of cases. -------- Conclusion: Our study demonstrated that correction of tricuspid valve disease in our cohort of patients, including valve repair and replacement and reconstructive surgery of fibrous ring alone or in combination with mitral or aortic valve replacement/ repair is accompanied by reduction of tricuspid regurgitation- and- reduction of cardiac chamber size and right ventricular pressure. No complications intrinsic to operative technique of tricuspid valve reconstructive surgery as advanced atrioventricular block or myocardial ischemia and infarction were recorded.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background  The autoimmune diseases (AD) have high morbidity and mortality due to their affection to the heart. Purpose Our objective was to describe the valvular heart disease (VHD) in patients with AD. Methods Patients with systemic lupus erythematous (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and systemic sclerosis (SS) diagnosis were included, from January 1st 2008 to December 31th 2018. Prevalence rates of valve involvement were calculated. Results A total of 163 patients (57.6% with SLE, 23.3% with RA, 19.0% with SS) were included. The global prevalence of VHD was 5.4% in SLS, 23.6% en RA, and 15.9% in SS. The more affected valve in SLS was the tricuspid valve in 24% (12% with severe tricuspid regurgitation (STR), p = 0.028), in RA was the aortic valve in 26% (13% with severe aortic stenosis (SAS), p = 0.02), and with SS was the tricuspid valve in 48% (29% with moderate tricuspid regurgitation (MTR)). The calcium deposit was present in 66% in RA (37% in aortic valve, p < 0.001). The valve thickening (>5 mm) was higher in RA (50%, p < 0.001), with predominance in mitral valve (26%). Conclusions We found significant higher rates of STR in SLE, SAS in RA, and MTR in SS compared with the literature. Moreover, calcification and valve thickening were found more often in RA. Early diagnosis of subclinical VHD is mandatory to improve the long-term prognosis of these patients. Valvular heart disease.

Aim: This study evaluated how the presence of right-sided heart disease (RSHD), other valve disease (OVD) and heart failure (HF) impacts healthcare utilization in patients with tricuspid valve disease (tricuspid regurgitation [TR]). Materials & methods: Of the 33,686 patients with TR: 6618 (19.6%) had TR-only; 8952 (26.6%) had TR with HF; 12,367 (36.7%) had TR with OVD but no HF; and 5749 (17.1%) had TR with RSHD only. Results: The presence of RSHD, OVD or HF in patients with TR was independently associated with increased annualized hospitalizations, hospital days and costs relative to patients with TR alone. Conclusion: All three co-morbidities were associated with increased healthcare utilization, with HF showing the greatest impact across all measures.

Rare Form

Carcinoid syndrome causes a rare form of acquired valvular heart disease which typically occurs in the setting of liver metastases. In carcinoid-induced valvular heart disease, the tricuspid valve is almost universally affected; left-sided valve disease occurs infrequently in affected patients. Herein, we report 2 cases of carcinoid-induced valvular heart disease; one case had no evidence of tricuspid valve involvement despite severe involvement of all other valves, while the other case was without severe tricuspid valve involvement.

Abstract Background We previously reported that valvular heart disease (VHD) was not at the significant risk of stroke/systemic embolism (SE), but was associated with an increased risk of hospitalization for heart failure (HF) in Japanese atrial fibrillation patients. However, the impact of combined VHD on clinical outcomes has been little known. Purpose The aim of this study is to investigate the prevalence of combined VHD and its clinical characteristics and impact on outcomes such as stroke/SE, all-cause death, cardiac death and hospitalization for HF. Method The Fushimi AF Registry is a community-based prospective survey of AF patients in one of the wards of our city which is a typical urban district of Japan. We started to enroll patients from March 2011, and follow-up data were available for 4,466 patients by the end of November 2019. In the entire cohort, echocardiography data were available for 3,574 patients. 68 AF patients with prosthetic heart valves were excluded and we compared clinical characteristics and outcomes between 488 single VHD (103 Aortic valve disease (AVD), 315 mitral valve disease (MVD), 70 tricuspid valve disease (TVD)) and 158 combined VHD (46 AVD and MVD, 11 AVD and TVD, 66 MVD and TVD, 35 AVD and MVD and TVD). Result Compared with single VHD, patients with combined VHD were older (combined vs. single VHD: 78.5 vs. 76.0 years, respectively; p<0.01), more likely to have persistent/permanent type AF (73.4% vs. 63.9%, p=0.02) and prescription of warfarin (63.1% vs. 53.8%, p=0.04). Combined VHD was less likely to have diabetes mellitus (13.9% vs. 23.6%, p=0.01) and dyslipidemia (26.6% vs. 40.4%, p<0.01). Sex, body weight, hypertension, pre-existing HF were comparable between the two groups. During the median follow-up of 1,474 days, the incidence rate of stroke/SE was not significantly different between the two groups (1.58 vs. 1.89 per 100 person-years, respectively, log rank p=0.10). The incidence rate of all-cause death (7.35 vs. 5.33, p=0.65), cardiac death (1.20 vs. 0.99, p=0.91) and hospitalization for HF (5.55 vs. 4.43, p=0.53) were also not significantly different. We previously reported AVD had significant impacts on cardiac adverse outcomes in AF patients, and we further analyzed event rates between combined VHD including AVD (AVD and MVD/TVD) and without AVD (MVD and TVD). Combined VHD with AVD group had higher incidence rate of all-cause death (10.7 vs. 5.79, p=0.03) than that without AVD group. However, the incidence rate of stroke/SE (1.98 vs. 1.56, p=0.59), cardiac death (0.98 vs. 1.14, p=0.68), hospitalization for HF (8.03 vs. 5.38, p=0.17) were not significantly different between the two groups. Conclusion As compared with single VHD, the risk of stroke/SE, all-cause death, cardiac death and hospitalization for HF in combined VHD was not significantly different. Among patients with combined VHD, those having AVD had higher incidence rate of all-cause death than those without AVD. Figure 1 Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Study Population

ObjectiveThe study aims were (1) to identify the community prevalence of moderate or greater mitral or tricuspid regurgitation (MR/TR), (2) to compare subjects identified by population screening with those with known valvular heart disease (VHD), (3) to understand the mechanisms of MR/TR and (4) to assess the rate of valve intervention and long-term outcome.MethodsAdults aged ≥65 years registered at seven family medicine practices in Oxfordshire, UK were screened for inclusion (n=9504). Subjects with known VHD were identified from hospital records and those without VHD invited to undergo transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) within the Oxford Valvular Heart Disease Population Study (OxVALVE). The study population ultimately comprised 4755 subjects. The severity and aetiology of MR and TR were assessed by integrated comprehensive TTE assessment.ResultsThe prevalence of moderate or greater MR and TR was 3.5% (95% CI 3.1 to 3.8) and 2.6% (95% CI 2.3 to 2.9), respectively. Primary MR was the most common aetiology (124/203, 61.1%). Almost half of cases were newly diagnosed by screening: MR 98/203 (48.3%), TR 69/155 (44.5%). Subjects diagnosed by screening were less symptomatic, more likely to have primary MR and had a lower incidence of aortic valve disease. Surgical intervention was undertaken in six subjects (2.4%) over a median follow-up of 64 months. Five-year survival was 79.8% in subjects with isolated MR, 84.8% in those with isolated TR, and 59.4% in those with combined MR and TR (p=0.0005).ConclusionsModerate or greater MR/TR is common, age-dependent and is underdiagnosed. Current rates of valve intervention are extremely low.

The Impact

Abstract Background Valvular heart disease (VHD) has been caught in two important cross-currents in recent decades: aging demography and the rise of multimodality imaging and transcatheter valve therapy. In this setting, we aim to identify the distribution, characteristics, and management of Chinese VHD patients according to age. Methods China Valvular Heart Disease Cohort Study (China-VHD) was conducted from March to September 2019 in 46 centers over China. It included prospectively 12331 adults with native moderate or severe VHD, of which we described the distribution, management, and in-hospital events according to age (18–44, 45–54, 55–64, 65–74, ≥75). Multivariate Logistic regression was employed to investigate the impact of age on in-hospital events composed of in-hospital mortality, acute heart failure, and stoke. Results In Chinese VHD population, overall percentage peaked in 55–64 year olds. The frequency of multivalvular heart disease (MVHD) saw an increasing trend with age (p for trend <0.001). Of single valvular heart disease, mitral regurgitation (MR) was the most frequent left-sided VHD followed by aortic regurgitation (AR), aortic stenosis (AS), and mitral stenosis (MS). AS frequency significantly grew with age (p for trend = 0.02) while AR peaked in 18–44 year olds and fluctuated at a lower level in the older population. In contrast, mitral valve disease (MS, MR, and mixed mitral valve disease) was most frequent in 45–54 year olds and dropped with age (p for trend all <0.001). Noteworthily, all aortic valve disease was notably frequent in men whereas mitral valve disease and MVHD more common in women. Similar to developed countries, degenerative etiology rose steeply while rheumatic and congenital origin fell with age. Regarding management, surgical valve replacement rate was similar in age groups lower than 75 years old with increasing frequency of concomitant CABG. No matter aortic or mitral, the percentage of bio-prosthesis rocketed after 65 years (aortic: 74.7%, mitral: 70.6%). In multivariate logistic regression, covariables included age, sex, BMI, hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease, aortic disease, cardiomyopathy, COPD, NYHA class and valvular intervention. Compared to patients younger than 45, in-hospital events significantly higher in patients over 75 only (OR: 1.69 [95% CI: 1.07–2.66], p<0.02). Moreover, women showed a lower risk of in-hospital events (OR: 0.78 [95% CI: 0.63–0.96], p<0.01). Age distribution of VHD Conclusion Age plays a crucial role in valvular heart disease, best illustrated in AS. Unlike the western world, AR and MR are more frequent than AS but show a slightly decreasing trend with age. As expected, degenerative etiology is becoming more prevalent whereas rheumatism decreases. Age over 75 and male are associated with growing in-hospital events. Degenerative VHD thus present an important public-health burden. Acknowledgement/Funding Innovation project of Chinese academy of medical science
