I just received a great question from Alexandra about simultaneous mitral valve and tricuspid valve surgery. Alexandra asked me, "Hi Adam, All the data I've seen measures outcomes for mitral valve repair alone. Have you seen any data on survival and durability rates for patients undergoing mitral and tricuspid valve repair surgery?"

To answer this important question, I was fortunate to connect with Dr. Robert Smith, Chair of Cardiac Surgery at Baylor Scott & White – The Heart Hospital in Plano, Texas. Click here to see my interview with Dr. Robert Smith about survival, durability and long-term outcomes for mitral and tricuspid valve repair surgery.
