Abstract

A 72-year-old patient presented with severe tricuspid regurgitation and patent foramen ovale (PFO) in the setting of severe mediastinal shifting after remote right pneumonectomy. Surgical approach was challenging given the significant herniation of the heart and left lung into the right hemithorax. This report describes tricuspid valve replacement with PFO closure via a right posterolateral thoracotomy and alternative cardiopulmonary bypass cannulation strategy.
