Summary

Tricuspid regurgitation is notoriously hard to manage, with limited medical treatment options. What are the therapeutic options available and how can the risks to patients of treatment be reduced? Patrizio Lancellotti (Belgium) talks to Stephan Baldus (Germany) and Claudius Jacobshagen (Germany) about the Cardioband tricuspid valve reconstruction system, a promising interventional therapy that can be used to reduce the annular size without the need for risky open heart surgery.
