Abstract:
Tricuspid regurgitation(TR) is a malocclusion of the tricuspid lobes during systole, resulting in blood returning from the right ventricle to the right atrium during systole. Functional TR is not associated with clear tricuspid valve disease, but is secondary to left heart disease and is often accompanied by dilation of the tricuspid ring. The main treatment for TR is to reduce the enlarged ring with tricuspid valvuloplasty or to replace the diseased valve with tricuspid valve replacement. Tricuspid valvuloplasty is the most common and safest surgical method for functional TR, but the specific treatment strategies for TR are still controversial. This article reviews the diagnostic evaluation, surgical strategy and prognosis of TR treated by tricuspid valvuloplasty.
