We have read with great interest about Chen et al.’s experience of totally endoscopic
beating-heart tricuspid repair in redo cardiac surgery [
[1]
]. We congratulate the authors on the quality of their work, which provides a valuable
reference article about this clinical situation. They demonstrated with a retrospective
cohort study that beating-heart, video-assisted, minimal-access tricuspid repair after
previous cardiac surgery is feasible to reproduce. The annuloplasty technique was
used in the tricuspid valve repair; here we have some questions regarding this paper.Keywords

- PreviewThe role of endoscopic surgery in treating late severe tricuspid regurgitation after cardiac surgery has not been well investigated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of a combination of a beating-heart, minimally invasive approach and a leaflet-augmentation technique in treating tricuspid regurgitation after cardiac surgery.
