Abstract:
Surgical valve replacement is the most effective treatment for carcinoid heart disease; however, reoperation for prosthetic valve failure is burdened by high risk. We report the first described percutaneous transcatheter pulmonary and tricuspid valve-in-valve replacement for bioprosthesis degeneration for any reason in a patient with carcinoid heart disease. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).
