Abstract：
:Seventy-six patients with tricuspid insufficiency associated with other valvular lesions underwent De Vega annuloplasty. There were mitral lesions in 74 patients, aortic valve lesions in eight and atrial septal defects (ASD) in four. The radiographic and electrocardiographic findings and hemodynamic data are reported for 66 patients. Replacement of one or two valves was performed in 56 patients, one or two valves commissurotomy in 21 and closure of the ASD in four. The immediate postoperative mortality was 19.7%. Forty-four patients were followed from six to 59 months. There were three late deaths and clinical conditions were improved in all the survivors except one who presented mitral restenosis. Discrete residual tricuspid incompetence occurred in 11 patients (25%). We conclude that the De Vega annuloplasty is the treatment of choice for functional tricuspid incompetence.
