Tricuspid valve repair with Dacron band versus DeVega or segmental annuloplasty. Hospital outcome and short term results.
The Egyptian Heart Journal(2017)
Abstract
The three techniques are options to repair the tricuspid valve, however, placement of Dacron band in patients undergoing tricuspid valve repair is associated with better RV remodelling, and hence, a probable better right ventricular performance and better outcome of repair is expected. A higher number of patients are needed with longer follow up period to appreciate the effect on survival and rate of freedom from tricuspid regurgitation and re-intervention.
