The case is presented of a patient with congenital tricuspid stenosis who
was treated successfully by a palliative open operation. The preoperative
diagnosis was tricuspid atresia. At operation, however, congenital
tricuspid stenosis was detected and managed by commissurotomy.. The
postoperative course was very good. Later, the associated ventricular
septal defect (VSD), pulmonary annular stenosis, and probably the atrial
septal defect (ASD) will be corrected. We emphasize the importance of
diagnosing congenital tricuspid stenosis correctly, because of the
possibility of operating upon the valve itself.
