However, many years or months after the treatment, complications can develop. In this article, we report on a patient with perforation of the tricuspid valve and tricuspid insufficiency, which developed as a complication of the ventriculoatrial shunt. This is a previously unreported complication in pediatric patients with a ventriculoatrial shunt. Because of fairly common and life-threatening cardiac complications, ventriculoatrial shunted patients should be monitored closely by echocardiography.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessChildperforation of tricuspid valveventriculoatrial shuntArticle12421321510.3233/JPN-1406652-s2.0-84913611610Q4WOS:000216261200006N/A
