    Journal: J Card Surg; 2012 Sep; 27(5):549-50. PubMed ID: 22762382.
    Abstract:
    We describe a technique that implants a rigid tricuspid annuloplasty ring over a previously inserted flexible ring for the treatment of recurrent tricuspid regurgitation. This technique avoids the trauma associated with the excision of a flexible ring in patients with friable annular tissue.
