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.

Right-sided infective endocarditis (RSIE) is less common than left-sided infective endocarditis (IE), encompassing only 5-10% of cases of IE. Ninety percent of RSIE involves the tricuspid valve (TV). Given the relatively small numbers of TVIE cases operated on at most institutions, the purpose of this review is to highlight and discuss the current ...

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 ...

Right-Sided Atrial Flutter Ablation After Tricuspid Valve-in-Valve Replacement
A patient with previous transcatheter tricuspid valve-in-valve replacement underwent catheter ablation for symptomatic atrial flutter. An incisional and cavo-tricuspid isthmus (CTI) dependent right atrial flutter was confirmed.
