Abstract:
We describe a case of percutaneous tricuspid valve implantation in a 20-year-old man with previous tricuspid valve replacement in the setting of pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum. He developed symptomatic endocarditis-induced tricuspid regurgitation of the tricuspid bioprosthesis. Tricuspid valvar competence was restored with implantation of a 26-mm Edwards SAPIEN valve.
