Abstract
We describe the case of a 27-year-old Caucasian woman with corrected transposition of the great vessels, who presented with cardiac failure. She had severe regurgitation of the systemic tricuspid valve with a huge annulus that was not suitable for annuloplasty. She underwent a successful repair using the Alfieri edge-to-edge technique and was asymptomatic 15 months after surgery. Such a repair has not been reported in the past.Entities:
