Abstract
Patients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) with significant systemic tricuspid valve regurgitation and systemic right ventricular dysfunction have prohibitive surgical risk in adulthood. The PASCAL transcatheter valve repair system enables minimally invasive percutaneous tricuspid valve repair in the complex anatomy of patients with ccTGA. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.)
