blunt chest traumas mostly occur due to car accidents and can cause many cardiac complications such as septal rupture, free-wall rupture, coronary artery dissection or thrombosis, heart failure, arrhythmias, and chordae and papillary muscle rupture. one of the most serious complication is tricuspid regurgitation (tr), which can be simply diagnosed by physical examination and confirmed by echoca...

A2-year-old cachectic cross-breed gelding was admitted toVeterinary Teaching Hospital of University of Tehran followingthe onset of a marked respiratory distress, coughing and ventraledema. Clinical examinations indicated harsh respiratory andexpiratory sounds as well as jugular vein distention. Therespiratory and heart rates were 35/min and 60 bpm, respectively.Agrade III/IV pansystolic murmur...

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...

Abnormal tricuspid valve structure and motion resulting from the rupture of a right ventricular papillary muscle were visualised by two dimensional echocardiography. These findings were confirmed at operation. Two dimensional echocardiography appears to be a satisfactory method for evaluating patients with tricuspid regurgitation of sudden onset with a view to surgery.

Myxomatous disease generally affects mitral valve. However, tricuspid valves also can be involved in 20% of the myxomatous mitral valve disease. Valve prolapse, elongation of chordae and chordae rupture are generally seen complications of the myxomatous disease. There are some reports about severe tricuspid regurgitation due to tricuspid valve prolapse and elongated chordae, but no tricuspid an...

blunt injury to the chest can affect any one or all components of the chest wall and thoracic cavity. the clinical presentation of patients with blunt chest trauma varies widely and ranges from minor reports of pain to florid shock. traumatic tricuspid valve regurgitation is a rare cardiovascular complication of blunt chest trauma. tricuspid valve regurgitation is usually begotten by disorders ...

Spontaneous chordae rupture of the tricuspid valve is relatively rare, unlike the mitral valve. We present a 27-year-old male with chronic renal failure on hemodialysis therapy for treatment of parathyroid adenoma. The echocardiography showed the severe tricuspid regurgitation with chordae rupture which was not noted 1 year ago. In addition, the papillary muscle of both mitral and tricuspid val...
