Abstract
OBJECTIVE Despite recent advances in surgical and interventional techniques, knowledge on the management of carcinoid heart disease (CHD) remains limited. In a cohort of patients with liver metastases of midgut neuroendocrine tumours (NETs), we aimed to describe the perioperative management and short-term outcomes of CHD. METHODS From January 2003 to June 2022, consecutive patients with liver metastases of midgut NETs and severe CHD (severe valve disease with symptoms and/or right ventricular enlargement) were included at Beaujon and Bichat hospitals. All patients underwent clinical evaluation and echocardiography. RESULTS Out of 43 (16%) consecutive patients with severe CHD and liver metastases of midgut NETs, 79% presented with right-sided heart failure. Tricuspid valve replacement was performed in 26 (53%) patients including 19 (73%) cases of combined pulmonary valve replacement. The 30-day postoperative mortality rate was high (19%), and preoperative heart failure was associated with worse survival (p=0.02). Epicardial pacemakers were systematically implanted in operated patients and 25% were permanently paced. A postoperative positive right ventricular remodelling was observed (p<0.001). A greater myofibroblastic infiltration was observed in pulmonary versus tricuspid valves (p<0.001), suggesting that they may have been explanted at an earlier stage of the disease than the tricuspid valve, with therefore potential for evolution. CONCLUSIONS We observed a high postoperative mortality rate and baseline right-sided heart failure was associated with worse outcome. In surviving patients, a positive right ventricular remodelling was observed. Prospective, multicentre studies are warranted to better define the management strategy and to identify biomarkers associated with outcome in CHD.

Abstract
Carcinoid heart disease is a frequent manifestation of carcinoid syndrome. It results from the release of a large amount of serotonin and subsequently fibrosis of right sided heart valves, that is, tricuspid and pulmonic valve. This article reviews the pathogenesis, clinical symptoms, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of carcinoid heart disease. Recent developments in treating carcinoid heart disease have improved the poor prognosis associated with the disease.

Abstract
Childhood cancer survival has improved significantly in the past few decades, reaching rates of 80% or more at 5 years. However, with improved survival, early- and late-occurring complications of chemotherapy and radiotherapy exposure are becoming progressively more evident. Cardiovascular diseases represent the leading cause of non-oncological morbidity and mortality in this highly vulnerable population. Therefore, the necessity of reliable, noninvasive screening tools able to early identify cardiac complications early is now pre-eminent in order to implement prevention strategies and mitigate disease progression. Echocardiography, may allow identification of myocardial dysfunction, pericardial complications, and valvular heart diseases. However, additional imaging modalities may be necessary in selected cases. This manuscript provides an in-depth review of noninvasive imaging parameters studied in childhood cancer survivors. Furthermore, we will illustrate brief surveillance recommendations according to available evidence and future perspectives in this expanding field.

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
BACKGROUND This European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (ENETS) Expert Consensus document aims to provide practical guidance and standardization for echocardiography in the screening and follow-up of carcinoid heart disease (CHD) in patients with a neuroendocrine tumour (NET) and carcinoid syndrome. METHODS NET experts within the ENETS Carcinoid Heart Disease Task Force reviewed both general reporting guidelines and specialized scoring systems for transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in CHD. Based on this review, a dedicated template report was designed by the multidisciplinary working group of cardiologists, oncologists, endocrinologists, gastroenterologists, surgeons and radiologists. RESULTS We propose a Synoptic Reporting of Echocardiography in Carcinoid Heart Disease which represents an agreed peer reviewed proforma to capture information at the time of referral and enable a detailed outcome of CHD assessment. This includes a systematic and detailed list of structures to evaluate data to capture at the time of reporting of TTE. CONCLUSIONS Adherence to these reporting guidelines aims to promote homogeneous and detailed evaluation of CHD to secure accurate assessment and allow comparison of studies performed intra- and inter-individually. These guidelines could also facilitate CHD assessment as part of prospective clinical trials to enable standardization of the findings seen in response to therapy.

Abstract
Cancer patients and survivors have elevated cardiovascular risk when compared with noncancer patients. Cardio-oncology has emerged as a new subspecialty to comanage and address cardiovascular complications in cancer patients such as heart failure, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), valvular heart disease, pericardial disease, and arrhythmias. Cardiac computed tomography (CT) can be helpful in identifying both clinical and subclinical ASCVD in cancer patients and survivors. Radiation therapy treatment planning CT scans and cancer staging/re-staging imaging studies can quantify calcium scores which can identify pre-existing subclinical ASCVD. Cardiac CT can be helpful in the evaluation of cardiac tumors and pericardial diseases, especially in patients who cannot tolerate or have a contraindication to cardiac magnetic resonance. In this review, we describe the optimal utilization of cardiac CT in cancer patients, including risk assessment for ASCVD and identification of cancer treatment-related cardiovascular toxicity.

Abstract
Carcinoid heart disease (CHD) is a paraneoplastic cardiac manifestation occurring in patients with carcinoid syndrome (CS) and advanced neuroendocrine malignancy. In about 20-40% of patients with CS, chronic exposure to tumor-released circulating vasoactive peptides typically results in right-sided valvular fibrosis leading to valve dysfunction and right heart failure. CHD remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. The management of patients with CHD is complex, as both the systemic malignant disease and the heart involvement have to be addressed. Early diagnosis and timely surgical intervention in selected patients are of utmost importance and offer a survival benefit. In patients with advanced carcinoid heart disease, valve replacement surgery is the most effective option to alleviate cardiac symptoms and contribute to survival outcomes. A collaboration of a multidisciplinary team in centers with experience is required to provide optimal patient management. Here, we review the current literature regarding CHD presentation, pathophysiology, diagnostic tools, and available treatment strategies.

Abstract
Carcinoid heart disease is a well-known complication of carcinoid syndrome that affects morbidity and mortality. Carcinoid heart disease may be asymptomatic in the early stages; therefore, patients with carcinoid syndrome should be screened to prevent misdiagnosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The development of carcinoid heart disease (CHD) is a fibrotic complication of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) which is associated with a poor prognosis. This review aims to summarise the clinical features, investigations and management of this condition. RECENT FINDINGS CHD can affect up to 50% of NET patients with carcinoid syndrome. However, it is often not screened for appropriately and recognised late when patients become symptomatic. A screening strategy with biomarkers and multimodality imaging is necessary for early recognition. Management by an experienced multidisciplinary team with appropriate medical therapeutic strategies and where indicated surgical intervention is needed to optimise clinical outcomes. CHD is a poor prognostic factor, but recently, outcomes have improved due to the multidisciplinary approach and centralised care of CHD-NET patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Carcinoid heart disease is a rare disorder that is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. In this review of the literature, we will present current concepts in diagnosis and management of carcinoid heart disease. RECENT FINDINGS Recent expert consensus guidelines highlight the role of echocardiography and screening with NT-proBNP for the evaluation of carcinoid heart disease. Advances in medical therapy along with better surgical outcomes highlight the experience and expertise that has been gained in the treatment of carcinoid heart disease. Carcinoid heart disease occurs in patients with neuroendocrine tumors who have carcinoid syndrome. Serotonin appears to play a central role in the development of carcinoid heart disease. Cardiac biomarkers and multimodality imaging can be used to aid in screening and diagnosis. The mainstay of treatment of carcinoid heart disease is surgery.

Abstract
Intracardiac masses are classified as neoplastic or non-neoplastic. Prognosis varies based on the diagnosis of the mass since treatment options differ greatly. As novel imaging techniques emerge, a multimodality approach to the evaluation of intracardiac masses becomes an important part of non-invasive evaluation prior to potential surgical planning or oncological treatment. The purpose of this article is to compare the available imaging modalities-echocardiography, cardiovascular magnetic resonance, cardiac computed tomography, nuclear imaging, and emerging novel hybrid imaging techniques for future clinical applications-and to review the characteristic features seen on those modalities for the most common intracardiac masses.
