Residual and recurrent tricuspid regurgitation may occur frequently after surgical tricuspid valve repair. However, reoperation for tricuspid regurgitation is rare, although many patients are again highly symptomatic. Tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) is a promising therapy for severe tricuspid regurgitation. Herein, we report a 77-year-old woman with recurrent symptomatic massive tricuspid regurgitation 2 years after sutured annuloplasty of the tricuspid valve. TEER was successfully performed using the TriClip device and tricuspid regurgitation was reduced to a mild degree. In conclusion, tricuspid TEER is feasible following surgical suture annuloplasty. TEER is an alternative option for patients with a failed previous annuloplasty repair for tricuspid regurgitation to undergo a less invasive treatment rather than a potentially higher-risk reoperation.

Prevalence and Prognostic Significance of Malnutrition Risk in Patients With Valvular Heart Disease.
JACC Adv
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, The Third-Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University, Guangzhou, China.
Background: Previous studies on the prevalence and prognosis of nutritional status in valvular heart disease (VHD) were primarily limited to aortic stenosis. The nutritional status of other types of VHDs remained an underexplored area.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of malnutrition risk in different types of VHD and investigate the association between malnutrition risk and adverse clinical events.

Background: Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) has become an essential component of lead management strategies, but it carries the risk of severe complications, including damage to the tricuspid valve. Currently, there are no established predictors that can help prevent these complications.

Aim: This study was performed to evaluate the association between left atrial (LA) stiffness and outcomes in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
Methods And Results: This study involved 279 patients with aortic stenosis (AS) who underwent TAVI at Kumamoto University Hospital between 2015 and 2023. During a median follow-up of 468 days (interquartile range: 258-825 days), 42 deaths occurred.
