Mitral and tricuspid annuli in hemophilia—A detailed analysis from the three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiographic MAGYAR-Path Study [PDF]
Aim: Hypocoagulability and associated alterations in myocardial mechanics seen in hemophilia could theoretically impact valvular geometry. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to characterize mitral and tricuspid annular dimensions and ...

Update on the Current Landscape of Transcatheter Options for Tricuspid Regurgitation Treatment [PDF]
Most patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation lack treatment options because of prohibitive surgical risk. New transcatheter treatments under development and investigation might be able to address this unmet clinical need.
