Severe systemic right ventricular failure with tricuspid regurgitation is associated with poor prognosis. Here, we report a case of 49-year-old patient who experienced severe systemic right ventricular failure following atrial switch. We chose the surgical strategy for this challenging case using comprehensive four-dimensional imaging. The patient underwent tricuspid valve repair and cardiac resynchronization therapy and recovered with improved cardiac function and regulated tricuspid valve regurgitation.
