Revisit of Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation; Current Trends in the Diagnosis and Management

Abstract: Current knowledge of functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) as a progressive entity, worsening the prognosis of patients irrespective of its aetiology, has led to renewed interest in the pathophysiology and assessment of FTR. For the proper management of FTR, not only its severity, but also the mechanisms, the mode of leaflet coaptation, the degree of tricuspid annulus enlargement and leaflet tenting, and the haemodynamic consequences for right atrial and right ventricular morphology and function have to be … Show more

“…Some authors like Braunwald et al in 1967 recommended conservative treatment of functional tricuspid regurgitation 2 as, by definition, it would be corrected when the left-sided valve is treated surgically. However, the excellent results of repaired tricuspid valve regurgitation during mitral valve surgery by Carpentier in 1974 made it very justifiable procedure.…”

“…The role of echocardiography As for MR, echocardiography plays a central role in the assessment of secondary TR for diagnosis, follow-up, timing of intervention, and procedure guiding. [8][9][10][11]20,21 The morphology of the tricuspid valve is more complex, and the diagnosis of secondary TR is more difficult to make. Threedimensional echocardiography is essential, because 2-dimensional echocardiography is a poor assessment tool for identification of the 3 valve leaflets and detection of the regurgitation The assessment should begin with the right ventricle (Fig.…”
