Abstract

Transcatheter caval valve implantation (CAVI) is an emerging treatment option for inoperable patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR). We present a case of a 76-year-old lady with severe TR and recurrent right heart failure who improved after CAVI. This is the first such case in a rare environment.
