Debulking the tricuspid valve with FlowTriever aspiration: A case series
1Spartanburg Regional Health System, Spartanburg, South Carolina, USA.
Abstract:
Intracardiac masses adhering to the tricuspid valve can occur as a result of right-sided infective endocarditis, malignancy, clot formation in the right atrium, or clots-in-transit passing through the right atrium. Early surgical intervention is recommended for tricuspid valve vegetation in some patients, although open heart surgery is not always an option. Treatment options for right heart thrombi include anticoagulation, thrombolysis, surgical embolectomy, or mechanical aspiration. We present a case series of tricuspid valve debulking using aspiration with the FlowTriever System.
