A Rare Case of Severe Nontropical Isolated Right Ventricular Endomyocardial Fibrosis

2020 
Abstract We present a case of late presentation nontropical endomyocardial fibrosis isolated to the right ventricle and tricuspid valve (TV). In response to deteriorating hemodynamics, surgical debulking and TV removal were performed before initiation of centralized venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support. Definitive endomyocardial resection with a TV prosthesis was then successfully completed. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
