Popis: BACKGROUND A 30-year-old female with tricuspid valve atresia, ventricular septal defect, and atrial septal defect had a neonatal modified Blalock Taussig shunt and a Fontan-Bjork operation performed at five years of age. She did well initially but progressively developed signs of systemic congestion due to severe homograft stenosis and underwent successful percutaneous implantation of a Melody® pulmonary valve (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) in the “tricuspid” position.
