Background: Valvular heart disease (VHD) is a major focus of cardiovascular medicine, but limited data are available for racial and ethnic minorities. The aim was to assess the burden and clinical correlates of VHD in a highly diverse area of the United States. Methods and Results: Individuals with echocardiographic diagnosis of native VHD between January 2010 and December 2019 at a quaternary care health system of the Bronx (New York, USA) were included. Prevalence and correlates of VHD were assessed per each racial and ethnic group. From a total of 330 570 adult echocardiograms, 80 584 individuals were diagnosed with VHD and included in the final study population. Stratified by race and ethnicity, 38.0%, 23.2%, 2.1%, and 36.7% were non‐Hispanic Black, non‐Hispanic White, Asian, and Hispanic, respectively. The mean age was 67.7±16.3 years, with non‐Hispanic Black, non‐Hispanic Asian, and Hispanic individuals being younger and having a higher burden of comorbidities. The prevalence of VHD increased with age, irrespective of race or ethnicity. In people aged ≥75 years, tricuspid and mitral regurgitation were the most prevalent VHD (21.1% and 16.1%, respectively). Non‐Hispanic White individuals more frequently had tricuspid regurgitation, mitral regurgitation, and multiple VHDs, but among those aged <65 years, these were more frequent in non‐Hispanic Black individuals. Conclusions: Our Bronx‐Valve Registry illustrates that the burden of VHD is high, increases with age, and varies among racial and ethnic groups. When diagnosed with VHD, non‐Hispanic Black, non‐Hispanic Asian, and Hispanic individuals are younger and with a higher burden of comorbidities. Appropriate resources and strategies need to be implemented to minimize racial and ethnic disparities and promote equity in VHD diagnosis and cardiovascular risk factor management.

Paravalvular leak (PVL) following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is an established complication, albeit rarely associated with hemolytic anemia. This report details 3 cases of significant hemolytic anemia attributed to TAVR-induced PVL, each with distinct clinical presentations and manifestations. These cases underscore the diverse and occasionally subtle clinical presentation of aortic PVL-associated hemolytic anemia. We explore the technical nuances and challenges of percutaneous PVL closure and emphasize the successful resolution of hemolytic anemia by using percutaneous PVL plugging with occluder devices. Through this case series, we encourage the awareness of PVL-associated hemolytic anemia in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with new onset anemia after TAVR and demonstrate the efficacy of percutaneous closure techniques in resolving this serious condition.
