A 27-year-old male who had been diagnosed with Ebstein's anomaly was admitted with uncontrollable congestive heart failure. The echocardiogram revealed severe tricuspid valve incompetence and the electrocardiogram showed atrial fibrillation. He underwent Hetzer's repair procedure for tricuspid valve incompetence and Minzioni's right atrial isolation technique to restore sinus rhythm. His congestive heart failure quickly disappeared and sinus rhythm was restored after operation. He was discharged 3 weeks postoperatively and remains well 22 months after his operation. Hetzer's technique for tricuspid valve repair in Ebstein's anomaly restructures the valve mechanism at the level of the true tricuspid anulus by using the most mobile leaflet for valve closure without plication of the atrialized chamber. We conclude that Hetzer's procedure is an effective operation for Ebstein's anomaly.
