Atrioventricular valvular regurgitation is a known complication after
cardiac transplantation. In this communication, we describe a case of
progressively severe tricuspid insufficiency that ultimately necessitated
tricuspid valve replacement. The patient has done well clinically since
valve replacement, and a postoperative cardiac catheterization demonstrated
normal right heart hemodynamics. A discussion of proposed causes and a
review of the literature are provided.
