Is tricuspid valve really tricuspid? [PDF]
Advancement in imaging techniques and interventional cardiology procedures have generated renewed interest in anatomy of tricuspid valve complex. The purpose of the present study was to characterize the morphology of tricuspid valve leaflets using objective criteria. Thirty-six embalmed cadaveric hearts were utilized for the present study.

Transjugular Tricuspid Valve-in-Valve Replacement [PDF]
The patient is a 38-year-old woman with rheumatic heart disease requiring surgery 21 years ago. She received a St. Jude mechanical prosthesis in the mitral position and a Carpentier-Edwards Perimount bioprosthesis (size 31) in the tricuspid position. Over the past 2 years, she has become progressively more short of breath with regular admissions for ...
