Abstract:
A 79-year-old woman, previously surgically treated for mitral and aortic valve replacement, experienced recurrent torrential tricuspid regurgitation after 2 transcatheter edge-to-edge repair procedures. Heart team assessment deemed the patient high risk for redo surgery and excluded transcatheter edge-to-edge repair and orthotopic replacement. The patient was then scheduled for a novel cross-caval device implantation.
