Isolated tricuspid valve stenosis--probably of rheumatic etiology.
نویسنده
چکیده
Rheumatic heart disease is still a common cardiac disease in developing countries. Triscupid valve is not usually involved in RHD and whenever it is involved, it is always associated with mitral valve disease. We report a case of isolated tricuspid stenosis, most likely of rheumatic etiology.

متن کاملIsolated tricuspid stenosis.
Isolated tricuspid stenosis is rare but it may be rheumatic (Durosiez, I868; Gordon et al., 1957; Killip and Lukas, I958), congenital (Lewis, I945), due to disseminated lupus erythematosus (Gibson and Wood, 1955), or of unknown aetiology (Krook, Biorck, and Wulff, I955; Sapirstein and Baker, I963). Most commonly tricuspid stenosis is a sequel to rheumatic fever and then it is almost invariably ...

Surgical treatment of a rheumatic valvular lesion may exaggerate the physical signs or lead to the recognition for the first time of another valvular lesion. This is seen in combined lesions of the aortic and mitral valves and less frequently of the mitral and tricuspid valve. Tricuspid stenosis (Pantridge and Marshall, 1957) and tricuspid incompetence (Mounsey, 1959) have been revealed after m...

Introduction: It is well-documented that right-sided heart dysfunction and significant tricuspid valve regurgitation (TVR) have adverse effects on patient outcomes after left-sided heart valve surgery. Therefore, the evaluation of right ventriclular (RV) function and TR severity in patients who had undergone mitral valve replacement (MVR), associated with/without concomitant su...
متن کاملDiagnosis and Treatment of Tricuspid Stenosis.
It has often been pointed out that tricuspid stenosis occurs much more frequently than it is diagnosed. This may be because it so rarely occurs as a single valvular defect (although such cases have been described), because there are no characteristic symptoms, and because clinical signs are often inconspicuous. In the past, it has not been considered of much practical importance to make the dia...
