The severe tricuspid regurgitation was found to be due to dehiscence at the site of the previous detachment and was repaired using a pericardial patch. In this report, we discuss the relative merits and risks of using this technique. %U https://www.qscience.com/content/journals/10.5339/gcsp.2015.14
