Abstract

Surgical treatment is recommended in patients with symptomatic severe tricuspid regurgitation and pulmonary regurgitation. Although renal transplant patients are a high-risk patient group for cardiac surgery, heart valve surgeries can be performed successfully. There are a limited number of studies published on this subject in the literature. Therefore, we present a case who underwent tricuspid ring annuloplasty (TRA) before being followed up with renal transplantation and then successfully performed redo tricuspid valve replacement (TVR) and pulmonary valve replacement (PVR).

Keywords: On-X; pulmonary valve replacement; renal transplant; tricuspid valve replacement.
