MORALES-PORTANO, Julieta D. et al. Tricuspid valve-in-valve procedure: a step-by-step guideline. Arch. Cardiol. Méx. [online]. 2019, vol.89, n.1, pp.51-54. Epub 15-Oct-2019. ISSN 1665-1731. https://doi.org/10.24875/acm.m19000016.
Objective:
The aim of this study was to present a valve-in-valve (ViV) case and a step-by-step guideline on how to perform this procedure.
Methods:
A 51-year-old female with a history of rheumatic heart disease and tricuspid valve replacement presented functional class deterioration, a transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) revealed prosthetic dysfunction due to thrombosis; therefore, a valvular replacement with a 27 mm bioprosthesis (Carpentier-Edwards Perimount) was performed without complication. 3 years after the procedure, the patients presented functional class deterioration (NYHA-III) with tricuspid dysfunction by TEE and the heart team decided to perform a transcatheter tricuspid ViV replacement.
