Moderate-to-severe tricuspid regurgitation is common in end-stage heart disease and is associated with an impaired survival after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) surgery.

We aimed to provide a contemporary overview of outcomes in patients who underwent LVAD surgery with or without concomitant TVS.
