“…Congenitally unguarded tricuspid orifice with patent right ventricular outflow tract is a rare anomaly with <50 cases reported in the literature with antemortem diagnosis 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11. Isolated unguarded tricuspid orifice with no other congenital abnormality has been reported in a few patients so far 1, 8, 9, 10.…”

Congenitally unguarded tricuspid valve (TV) orifice, a variant of TV dysplasia, is a rare malformation with protean manifestations. This report describes a symptomatic adult male with gross right heart failure and atrial fibrillation, who was found to have an unguarded TV orifice with isolation of the trabecular apical cavity of the right ventricle (RV) and muscular ridges separating outflow tract (forme-fruste of the double-chambered RV). The right ventricular outflow tract remained patent.

“…Unguarded tricuspid valve (TV) with well-developed right ventricle (RV) and the patent outflow tract constitute a rare congenital anomaly with a few antemortem case reports 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11. It is a variety of TV dysplasia, in which there is partial or complete agenesis of the TV tissue 12 .…”

“…Other clinical presentations have also been reported, including arrhythmias and thrombosis . Patients with partial isolated unguarded TV, good RV function, and new‐onset right cardiac failure might benefit from tricuspid annuloplasty . However, in view of the frequent association with RV dysfunction, it does not seem to be an optimum long‐term option .…”

The anatomic causes for fetal right atrial dilatation with tricuspid regurgitation include Ebstein anomaly, tricuspid dysplasia, unguarded tricuspid orifice, and Uhl anomaly. Unguarded tricuspid orifice is characterized by complete or partial agenesis of the tricuspid valvular and subvalvular structures. It is commonly associated with pulmonary atresia. Its prenatal diagnosis is usually associated with unfavorable prognosis. We present a prenatally diagnosed case of fetal unguarded tricuspid orifice with description of its diagnostic workup, along with a review of literature, to enhance the understanding of this rarely reported entity. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
