Abstract
The management of recurrent tricuspid regurgitation (TR) after initial tricuspid valve (TV) repair in patients with Ebstein's anomaly (EA) represents a complex challenge. Traditionally, tricuspid valve replacement has been the first-line option for these patients. The use of Cone Repair for recurrent TR remains under-reported. Herein, we report a successful cone repair for recurrent TR, twelve years after a Carpentier repair in a 39-year-old male patient.
