Abstract

A 67-year-old patient with history of heart transplantation was referred for symptomatic severe tricuspid regurgitation. Diagnostic workup showed chordal ruptures on the septal and anterior leaflets, most likely related to endomyocardial biopsies. Given the high surgical risk, the patient was treated percutaneously, with good results persisting at 3 months. ( Level of Difficulty: Intermediate. ).<br />Competing Interests: Dr Martin has received consultant fees and research grant from Alliance BMS-Pfizer and consultant fees from Abbott, Bayer, and Novartis outside the submitted work. Dr Karam has received consultant fees from Abbott Vascular, Edwards Lifesciences, and Medtronic outside the submitted work.
