title: Tricuspid valve myxoma: a rare indication for tricuspid valve repair.
abstract: Excision of a myxoma involving the tricuspid valve often necessitates tricuspid valve replacement or a less than optimal margin of resection. We report a successful tricuspid valve repair after en bloc resection of a myxoma involving the septal leaflet of the tricuspid valve.
