Transfemoral Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement With the EVOQUE System

Abstract Objectives The purpose of this observational first-in-human experience was to investigate the feasibility and safety of the EVOQUE tricuspid valve replacement system and its impact on short-term clinical outcomes.
