  • Transjugular transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement for persistent severe tricuspid regurgitation after transcatheter aortic valve replacement: a case report

    This article reports a case of transjugular transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) for persistent severe tricuspid regurgitation after transcatheter aortic valve replacement. The patient was an 80 year old female who underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement at the Department of Cardiology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, two months before admission. After the surgery, her condition worsened due to unimproved tricuspid regurgitation and right heart failure. After admission, the patient underwent transjugular TTVR under general anesthesia. With the assistance of cardiac ultrasound and X-ray fluoroscopy, an artificial valve was successfully implanted, and tricuspid regurgitation was relieved. The patient’s surgery went smoothly, and the condition improved significantly 25 days after surgery. The patient was discharged 34 days after surgery.
