“…Since symptoms from RV failure may appear only when advanced and irreversible myocardial damage has occurred, early and subtler adverse effects of PR may be easily missed if the evaluation depends on clinical assessment alone [17,18]. Many authors have reported that severe long-term PR may result, despite the lack of symptoms, in progressive RV dilatation and dysfunction [16][17][18][19][20][21][22], and poor exercise tolerance [23][24][25][26]. Residual lesions like VSD, tricuspid regurgitation (TR), RVOT or branch pulmonary artery stenosis, and surgical sequelae-like conduction disturbances or resection of muscle during repair or RVOT patching, further impact on RV size and function [15,17,18,20,25,27,28].…”
