Percutaneous implantation of valved stents is now routinely performed to treat pulmonary valve regurgitation and stenosis. In addition, there are isolated reports of implantation of valved stents in the tricuspid position to treat prosthetic tricuspid stenosis or regurgitation when a prosthetic valve ring exists. We present a case in which a patient with combined severe tricuspid valve and pulmonary valve disease was successfully treated with sequential implantation of percutaneous valved stents in a single procedure. The procedure was straightforward, of short duration, and dramatically improved the patient's functional status.
经皮瓣膜支架植入术现已常规用于治疗肺动脉瓣反流和狭窄。此外,也有孤立的报道称,在存在人工瓣环的情况下,经皮瓣膜支架植入于三尖瓣位置可用于治疗人工三尖瓣狭窄或反流。我们报告了一例患者,该患者同时患有严重的三尖瓣和肺动脉瓣疾病,通过单次手术序贯植入经皮瓣膜支架成功治疗。该手术过程简单,用时短,并显著改善了患者的功能状态。
