About Me

Mitral commissurotomy 1974, mitral replacement 1981. Now moderate tricuspid regurgitation and mild pulmonary hypertension and mild aortic stenosis. As an addendum, my Tricuspid regurgitation became severe (massive/torrential) and I applied for a clinical trial for Tricuspid valve replacement via the femoral route. I was chosen as a roll-in patient in March 2022 and had my replacement on March 30, 2022. It's an Evoque Tricuspid valve by Edwards. The clinical trial is ongoing.
