“Prophylactic” Tricuspid Repair for Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2014
The optimal management of functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) in the setting of mitral valve operations remains controversial. The objective of this study is to compare the outcomes of congestive heart failure patients who underwent a prophylactic tricuspid operation for FTR as a component of their initial mitral valve procedure with those who ...

The Pathogenesis of Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation

Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2010
Functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a common etiology of TR. Functional TR results from geometrical distortion of the normal spatial relationships of the tricuspid leaflets, annulus, chords, papillary muscles, and right ventricular (RV) walls. Functional TR results most commonly from left-sided heart disease, including mitral valve abnormalities

Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation

2019
Functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) is an important prognosticator in many cardiac diseases. Although surgical intervention has been being frequently applied, the success of current repair techniques is often uncertain and observation of residual or progressive FTR after tricuspid valve annuloplasty is not uncommon.

Basis for Intervention on Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation

Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2010
Functional tricuspid regurgitation is a complex valvular lesion. Its optimal management remains controversial in the current era as the result of uncertainties regarding accurate diagnosis, surgical indication, the appropriate surgical procedure, and the late results of surgical treatment.

Extracardiac Tricuspid Annuloplasty: A Novel Technique for Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2021
We report 3 cases of functional tricuspid regurgitation and demonstrate a novel tricuspid repair technique through the right atrioventricular groove without cardiopulmonary bypass or open heart surgery, which provides a new idea for the treatment of functional tricuspid regurgitation.

Functional tricuspid regurgitation: An underestimated issue

International Journal of Cardiology, 2013
This review article focuses on functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) that has long been a neglected and underestimated entity. FTR is defined as leakage of the tricuspid valve during systole in the presence of structurally normal leaflets and chordae.

Determinants of the Severity of Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2006
We performed a prospective study of patients with chronic right ventricular (RV) dilation to determine the factors associated with the degree of functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR). We prospectively enrolled 64 patients with chronic RV dilation and measured right atrial (RA) area, RV area and its fractional area change (RVFAC), tricuspid annular ...

Tricuspid Leaflet Augmentation to Eliminate Residual Regurgitation in Severe Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2011
We describe a technique for treating severe functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) when residual regurgitation cannot be eliminated with ring annuloplasty alone. The anterior leaflet and the anterior half of the posterior leaflet are augmented with an elliptic pericardial patch before implantation of a rigid annuloplasty ring.

A Modified Tricuspid Ring Annuloplasty to Reduce Residual Regurgitation in Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2010
We describe a modified technique of tricuspid ring annuloplasty to reduce postoperative residual regurgitation in patients with functional tricuspid regurgitation; first, an adjustable segmental tricuspid annuloplasty is performed to obtain coaptation of the valve leaflets with two 5-0 monofilament annular sutures, and then a prosthetic ring of the ...
