eComment. Adjustable tricuspid annuloplasty for functional tricuspid regurgitation.
Functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) is a neglected and underestimated pathology. It occurs mostly from annular dilatation and right ventricular enlargement, which is frequent secondary to left-sided heart failure from myocardial or valvular causes, right ventricular volume and pressure overload, and dilatation of the cardiac chambers. Moderate-to-severe FTR should be corrected to improve s...
متن کاملTricuspid valve tethering predicts residual tricuspid regurgitation after tricuspid annuloplasty.
BACKGROUND Tricuspid valve (TV) annuloplasty is recommended for functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR), which is caused by TV annulus dilatation and tethering of the leaflets. However, the impact of TV deformations on the outcome of TV annuloplasty remains unknown. The goal of this study was to investigate the relationship between preoperative TV deformation and residual TR after TV annuloplas...
متن کاملTricuspid annuloplasty using the MC3 ring for functional tricuspid regurgitation.
BACKGROUND A recently introduced tricuspid annuloplasty ring, the MC(3) ring, has a 3-dimensional form that is designed to remodel the tricuspid valve annulus. The aim of this study was to investigate its clinical performance. METHODS AND RESULTS From December 2004 to April 2008, 103 patients underwent tricuspid annuloplasty using the MC(3) ring (mean age, 52+/-13 years; 63.6% women). The ave...
متن کاملTricuspid valve repair: is ring annuloplasty superior?
OBJECTIVES Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) secondary to left heart disease is the most common aetiology of tricuspid valve (TV) insufficiency. Valve annuloplasty is the primary treatment for TV insufficiency. Several studies have shown the superiority of annuloplasty with a prosthetic ring over other repair techniques. We reviewed our experience with different surgical techniques for the treatment...
متن کاملRight coronary occlusion during tricuspid band annuloplasty.
CLINICAL SUMMARY A 38-year-old man was referred to the University of Catania for severe mitral regurgitation caused by bacterial endocarditis in a myxomatous mitral valve, with prolapse and chordal rupture of the posterior leaflet. The patient was symptomatic for effort dyspnea. A preoperative echocardiogram showed a dilated left ventricle with 62% ejection fraction. Moderate to severe tricuspi...
