Novel Valve-in-Valve Transcatheter Systemic Tricuspid Valve Replacement in Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries
A 41-year-old woman with history of situs inversus totalis, dextrocardia, congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries, and systemic tricuspid valve replacement presented with worsening of her baseline orthopnea and exertional dyspnea caused by stenosis of the tricuspid valve. Given her high risk for surgery, valve-in-valve transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement was pursued and performed successfully, leading to resolution of her symptoms. Previous valve-in-valve tricuspid interventions are rare. This case is notable as the first systemic atrioventricular valve-in-valve replacement in a patient with dextrocardia through a septal approach.
