Echocardiographic-based treatment of functional tricuspid regurgitation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2011
Functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) worsens over time, and its natural history is unfavorable. An aggressive surgical strategy, using the echocardiographic systolic dimensions of the tricuspid annulus (sysTA), can be helpful to reduce the detrimental late effects of FTR.From March 2006 to February 2008, 298 patients, with at least FTR grade 1 ...

Interventional Cardiology Perspective of Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2009
A vast unmet need exists for tricuspid valve (TV) repair for functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) among patients undergoing left heart valve surgery. The FTR is a dynamic entity that is governed by several pathophysiologic mechanisms like TV annular dilatation, annular shape, pulmonary hypertension, left or right ventricle dysfunction, right ...

“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 ...

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.

Tricuspid valve annuloplasty for functional regurgitation

Multimedia Manual of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2008
Functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is present in many patients with advanced heart failure. The following manuscript and videos describe our approach to its correction.

Surgical Strategies for Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation

Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2010
Functional or secondary tricuspid regurgitation commonly is found in the setting of left-sided heart disease and, when severe, is associated with substantially poorer functional outcomes and survival if untreated. The traditional view that functional tricuspid regurgitation generally resolves with surgical correction of the primary lesions is no longer

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.

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.

Isolated Tricuspid Valve Surgery for Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation

The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon
Abstract Background Severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) adversely affects long-term survival; however, isolated tricuspid valve (TV) surgery has been rarely performed due to high operative mortality. In addition, the previous literature included heterogeneous TR etiologies.
