Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Wilford Hall USAF Medical Center, Lackland Air Force Base, Texas

Accepted for publication August 10, 1995.

Blunt traumatic rupture of the tricuspid valve is exceedingly uncommon, and injury of the tricuspid valve due to penetrating trauma appears to be even more rare. Presented here is a case of tricuspid valve injury due to penetrating cardiac trauma repaired by leaflet resuspension 17 years later. (Ann Thorac Surg 1996;61:721–2)
