    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Surgery
    • Cardiac Valve Repair

    Background:

    • Tricuspid regurgitation is a significant valvular heart disease.
    • The de Vega annuloplasty is a recognized surgical treatment for tricuspid regurgitation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a modified de Vega semicircular annuloplasty technique.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of this modified technique for tricuspid regurgitation.

    Main Methods:

    • A modification of the standard de Vega semicircular annuloplasty was developed.
    • The technique was applied to patients with tricuspid regurgitation.

    Main Results:

    • The modified de Vega annuloplasty was successfully employed in 48 patients.
    • The technique has shown successful outcomes since its implementation in January 1979.
