R Magotra, and N B Agrawal, and S P Mall, and S J Parikh

A case report is presented of a child in whom there was gross tricuspid insufficiency due to marked dysplasia of the tricuspid valve. This patient received prosthetic valve replacement in tricuspid position with excellent post-operative improvement. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of a tricuspid valve replacement for a severely dysplastic tricuspid valve.
