Permanent Pacemaker Implantation After Tricuspid Valve Surgery
Abstract
Tricuspid valve (TV) surgery carries a high risk of atrioventricular block. In this report, we illustrate several options for managing conduction disorders after TV surgery. The choice of cardiac implantable devices must take account of several parameters such as surgical procedure, patient’s rhythm and history, and etiology of TV disease.
