No differences in short-term mortality and 5-year survival were observed when tricuspid valve was added to MV surgery in MIS or sternotomy. The addition of tricuspid valve surgery is associated with higher incidence of re-exploration for bleeding, new onset arrhythmia. A longer LOHS was observed for MIS compared to sternotomy.
