Pulmonary arterial intimal sarcomas (PAIS) are rare malignancies with a poor prognosis. Sarcomas present with signs and symptoms mimicking pulmonary thromboembolic disease, delaying the diagnosis. We present a 29-year-old male patient diagnosed with PAIS in the right and main pulmonary arteries extending to the left pulmonary leaflet. The patient was treated with pulmonary endarterectomy and pulmonary leaflet reconstruction using the Ozaki technique.

“…The Ozaki technique has been performed for pulmonary valve infective endocarditis, and we achieved good results in our case with PAIS. 8 The diagnosis of PAIS is challenging because the disease may mimic chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. Suspicion should be aroused when anticoagulant treatment is unsuccessful.…”

“…PVIE is the main indication for PVR in this subgroup of patients [4]. Methods and details of the operative technique are not standardized [4,8]. To avoid a higher risk of valvular thrombosis associated with right-sided mechanical valves, as well as complications of lifelong anticoagulation therapy, we opted for PVR with a biological valve in our patient [9].…”

Congenital heart disease (CHD) is one of the risk factors for developing infective endocarditis (IE). Right-sided IE occurs in 5%-10% of endocarditis cases, and pulmonary valve (PV) is involved in less than 2% of such patients. Literature data are few, and optimal treatment methods, indications for surgery, and types of operative techniques are still under debate. We present an adult patient with a rare combination of the ventricular septal defect (VSD) and PV IE who underwent surgical treatment. Neocuspidization with autologous pericardium was utilized for the reconstruction of his PV. We discuss details of this novel surgical technique.

Pulmonary valve neocuspidization and tricuspid valve replacement in intravenous drug abusers with infective endocarditis: Report of two cases

Right-sided infective endocarditis accounts for 5–10% of endocarditis cases. It occurs predominantly among intravenous drug abusers. The pulmonary valve is involved in fewer than 2% of patients with endocarditis. Literature data are limited and optimal medical strategy, including surgical technique, remains non-standardized in this clinical situation. We present 2 patients treated surgically for tricuspid and pulmonary valve endocarditis and discuss a method of pulmonary valve neocuspidization based on the Ozaki technique.
