Between March 2008 and January 2009, a stentless tricuspid valve replacement (STVR) was performed in three patients with tricuspid valve endocarditis who were resistant to medical therapy. Intraoperative and follow-up echocardiograms revealed good prosthetic function without stenosis or regurgitation. This technique could be considered an additional surgical option to stented biological valves or homograft implantations in very high risk populations.

D004696 Endocarditis Inflammation of the inner lining of the heart (ENDOCARDIUM), the continuous membrane lining the four chambers and HEART VALVES. It is often caused by microorganisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and rickettsiae. Left untreated, endocarditis can damage heart valves and become life-threatening.

D001705 Bioprosthesis Prosthesis, usually heart valve, composed of biological material and whose durability depends upon the stability of the material after pretreatment, rather than regeneration by host cell ingrowth. Durability is achieved 1, mechanically by the interposition of a cloth, usually polytetrafluoroethylene, between the host and the graft, and 2, chemically by stabilization of the tissue by intermolecular linking, usually with glutaraldehyde, after removal of antigenic components, or the use of reconstituted and restructured biopolymers.
