Interest in the anatomy of the tricuspid valve has increased in the past two decades with the awareness that functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) is not an innocuous bystander of left-side heart disease but, on the contrary, is an insidious disease progressively leading to untreatable right heart failure and eventually to death.

Is tricuspid valve really tricuspid? [PDF]
Advancement in imaging techniques and interventional cardiology procedures have generated renewed interest in anatomy of tricuspid valve complex. The purpose of the present study was to characterize the morphology of tricuspid valve leaflets using objective criteria. Thirty-six embalmed cadaveric hearts were utilized for the present study.

Transcatheter treatment for tricuspid valve disease.
Approximately 4% of subjects aged 75 years or more have clinically relevant tricuspid regurgitation (TR). Primary TR results from anatomical abnormality of the tricuspid valve apparatus and is observed in only 8-10% of the patients with tricuspid valve ...

How rare is isolated rheumatic tricuspid valve disease? [PDF]
The incidence of rheumatic fever (RF) has markedly decreased in Europe since the beginning of the 20th century due to improved living conditions, early antibiotic therapy in streptococcal pharyngitis, and changes in serotypes of circulating streptococci.

Aims Isolated tricuspid valve surgery (ITVS) is considered to be a high-risk procedure, but in-hospital mortality is markedly variable. This study sought to develop a dedicated risk score model to predict the outcome of patients after ITVS for severe ...

Tricuspid valve endocarditis [PDF]
Right-sided infective endocarditis (RSIE) encompasses 5–10% of all infective endocarditis (IE) cases. Among them, about 90% involve the tricuspid valve (TV) (1). Major risk factors for TV infective endocarditis (TVIE) are intravenous drug use, pacemaker (PM) leads and indwelling vascular accesses (1,2). Only between 5–16% of RSIE cases require surgical

Background: Transcatheter treatments of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) have been emerging as alternatives for high-risk patients. In contrast to the immobilization of the common transcatheter tricuspid device, using a radial force-independent stent valve ...

Conventional transvenous pacemaker leads may interfere with the tricuspid valve leaflets, tendinous chords, and papillary muscles, resulting in significant tricuspid valve regurgitation (TR).

Right sided heart evaluation after successful mitral valve replacement. [PDF]
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)
