Fig 1 Long-term survival estimates for all patients undergoing tricuspid valve replacement (gray line [n = 93]) or repair (black line [n = 222]). The numbers of patients at risk for each group are reported at 1, 3, 5, and 10 years.

Fig 2 Long-term survival estimates for all patients undergoing tricuspid valve replacement with a biologic prosthesis (black line [n = 72]) or a mechanical prosthesis (gray line [n = 21]). The numbers of patients at risk for each group are reported.
