Abstract
SCHREIBER, C., et al.: Modified Implantation of a Transvenous Defibrillator in a Patient after Tricuspid Valve Replacement. A different approach to transvenous implantation in a patient after tricuspid valve replacement with a mechanical prosthesis is described. To our knowledge, this is the first report in this setting, using a CPI system with a single shock electrode only.
