  • Title: Cardiac valvular replacement in carcinoid heart disease.
    Author: Miller BR, Vohr FH, Christian FV, Singh AK.
    Journal: Am J Med; 1983 Nov; 75(5):896-8. PubMed ID: 6638058.
    Abstract:
    A woman with tricuspid regurgitation due to carcinoid heart disease underwent successful tricuspid valvular replacement. This was performed as soon as the patient became symptomatic, enabling her to return to a normal life untroubled by slowly growing liver metastases. Few early valvular replacements have been undertaken in this disease. This case report demonstrates its usefulness.
