Tricuspid stenosis: An emerging disease in cardiac implantable electronic devices era. Case report and literature review.

Tricuspid valve dysfunction and in particular tricuspid stenosis has recently been described secondary to cardiac implantable electronic devices. The valve is subjected to different mechanisms of injury related to the endocardial lead passing through its plane. The lead can form a loop or perforate one of the leaflets and initiate inflammatory response and fibrotic changes.
