Research progress on the treatment of isolated tricuspid regurgitation / 中国胸心血管外科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

@#With the prevalence of atrial fibrillation and the increasing use of intracardiac pacemakers, the incidence of isolated tricuspid regurgitation is gradually increasing. Severe isolated tricuspid regurgitation has a seriously negative effect on the survival rate and life quality of patients. As the major invasive therapy, surgery is not routinely carried out due to high perioperative mortality. This article attempts to summarize the etiology, natural course and adverse consequences of isolated tricuspid regurgitation, current treatment strategies, surgical indications and techniques, efficacy evaluation, prognostic factors and transcatheter treatment progress of isolated tricuspid regurgitation, aiming to provide references for cardiologists and further researches.
