Tricuspid Regurgitation, Isn't It Time to Look Around the Valve Rather Than the Valve Itself?
It was not until a couple of decades ago that the tricuspid valve has received attention to clinicians. Based on anecdotal experience in patients with Fontan physiology 1) and also in a case of a patient without tricuspid valve because of endocarditis, 2) cli-nicians have had a misconception that the tricuspid valve may be a 'rudimentary' or even an 'unnecessary' valve in the heart. Nowadays th...
متن کاملAll you need to know about the tricuspid valve: Tricuspid valve imaging and tricuspid regurgitation analysis.
The acknowledgment of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) as a stand-alone and progressive entity, worsening the prognosis of patients whatever its aetiology, has led to renewed interest in the tricuspid-right ventricular complex. The tricuspid valve (TV) is a complex, dynamic and changing structure. As the TV is not easy to analyse, three-dimensional imaging, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and co...

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 کاملThe forgotten valve: lessons to be learned in tricuspid regurgitation.
Only limited information is currently available about the prognostic significance of tricuspid regurgitation (TR). The few existing studies, however, suggest a strong impact of TR on clinical outcome. Significant TR is associated with poor prognosis in patients with mitral stenosis after percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty and with a reduction in exercise capacity after mitral valve surgery. A s...
