[Selective tricuspid annuloplasty]. 1994

D N Jin, and W J Zhen

Beijing Hospital.

Six cases of functional tricuspid regurgitation associated with rheumatic valvular disease were treated with selective tricuspid annuloplasty simultaneously with MVR or DVR from Sept. 1990 to Feb. 1993. Five cases were followed up for 8-32 months, the primary results were satisfactory and quite encouraging. Authors sum up the merits of this newly developed method are: (1) the technique is relatively simple; (2) it may correct the dilated anulus effectively; (3) not diminish the valve area; (4) no foreign body remains in the atrium. The technique and key point of the method were described in detail.
