Abstract

A 75-year-old patient with previous mitral and tricuspid reconstruction experienced severe tricuspid regurgitation. On the basis of a prohibitive surgical risk, an interventional heterotopic tricuspid valve implantation was planned. Implantation was performed using fusion-imaging, which facilitated intraprocedural navigation. At 6-month follow-up, the patient presented in improved condition with reduced symptoms. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
