Abstract
BACKGROUND Carcinoid heart disease (CHD) caused by neuroendocrine tumours (NET) is associated with an increased morbidity and mortality due to valvular dysfunction and right sided heart failure. The present study aimed to assess the prevalence and one-year-incidence of CHD in NET patients. Tumour characteristics, laboratory measurements, and echocardiographic findings were evaluated to identify predictors of CHD manifestation. METHODS The study was an investigator-initiated, monocentric, prospective trial. Patients with NET without previously diagnosed CHD were included and underwent comprehensive gastroenterological and oncological diagnostics. Echocardiographic examinations were performed at baseline and after one year. RESULTS Forty-seven NET patients were enrolled into the study, 64% of them showed clinical features of a carcinoid syndrome (CS). Three patients presented with CHD at baseline and three patients developed cardiac involvement during the follow-up period corresponding to a prevalence of 6% at baseline and an incidence of 6.8% within one year. Hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) was identified to predict the occurrence of CHD (OR, 1.004; 95% CI, 1.001-1.006 for increase of 5-HIAA), while chromogranin A (CgA), and Kiel antigen 67 (Ki 67%) had no predictive value. Six patients with CHD at twelve-month follow-up revealed a tendency for larger right heart diameters and increased values of myocardial performance index (MPEI) at baseline compared to NET patients. CONCLUSION The prevalence at baseline and one-year-incidence of CHD was 6-7%. 5-HIAA was identified as the only marker which predict the development of CHD.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Cardiac surgery with tricuspid valve and potentially pulmonic valve replacement at an experienced center is currently the most effective strategy available for the treatment of carcinoid heart disease. Cardiac surgery for carcinoid heart disease requires a multidisciplinary team including cardiology, medical oncology, cardiothoracic anesthesia, and cardiac surgery. Without cardiac surgery, morbidity and mortality from carcinoid heart disease is high. Aggressive management of carcinoid before and after cardiac surgery is critical. Over time, though, circulating carcinoid hormones can lead to destruction of prosthetic valves as well, resulting in recurrent right heart failure. Percutaneous options for valve repair may be on the horizon for management of carcinoid heart disease.

Abstract
Carcinoid heart disease is a rare condition that occurs in less than half of patients with carcinoid syndrome. The disease mainly affects right-sided heart valves; however, in 5%-10%, it can also involve left-sided valves. This case illustrates the most complicated form of the disease involving four heart valves.

Abstract
PURPOSE Carcinoid heart disease (CHD) is a life-threatening complication of carcinoid syndrome (CS) characterised by tricuspid regurgitation (TR). However, there is an unmet need for earlier diagnosis of CHD. We cross-sectionally assessed the prevalence and potential predictive or diagnostic markers for CS and CHD in a contemporary cohort of patients with small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours (SI-NETs). METHODS Biochemical characteristics, hepatic tumour load, measures of arterial and endothelial function, atherosclerosis, and transthoracic echocardiography were analysed in a prospective cross-sectional setting. RESULTS Among the 65 patients studied, 29 (45%) had CS (CS+ ), and 3 (5%) CHD. CS+ was characterised by significantly higher hepatic tumour load, S-5-HIAA and fP-CgA, higher frequency of diarrhoea and flushing, and more frequent PRRT compared to CS- (for all, P < 0.05). Central systolic, central mean, and central end-systolic blood pressures were significantly higher in CS+ than in CS- (for all, P < 0.05). Subjects with grades 2-4 TR had higher hepatic tumour burden, fP-CgA, and S-5-HIAA compared to those with grades 0-1 TR, but measures of vascular function did not differ. fP-CgA (P = 0.017) and S-5-HIAA (P = 0.019) but not proBNP increased significantly according to the severity of TR. CONCLUSION Although CS is common, the prevalence of CHD was found to be lower in a contemporary cohort of SI-NET patients than previously anticipated. Measures of arterial or endothelial function or carotid atherosclerosis do not identify subjects with mild TR. Echocardiography remains the most sensitive means to diagnose CHD in CS patients with high tumour burden and elevated CgA and 5-HIAA.
