Imaging and haemodynamic parameters associated with clinical outcomes following isolated tricuspid valve surgery

Open Heart

Introduction Isolated tricuspid valve surgery (TVS) may be associated with high morbidity and mortality. Patients with congenital heart disease, infective endocarditis and those who underwent concomitant valve or pericardial surgery were excluded. We only included those who had all three tests before surgery: ECHO, CMR and RHC.
