ABSTRACT
The transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement technique has evolved over the past decade. There is risk of injuring the tricuspid valve if the transcatheter device is advanced uncovered across the right heart. Advancing a long sheath past the landing zone and uncovering the device can help mitigate this risk, at the expense of requiring larger-caliber sheaths. Additional refinements of the technique such as the one reported here, along with improvements in device design, are likely to further reduce complications.
