http://www.ctsnet.org/edmunds/Chapter35section1.html

Extractions: The normal tricuspid valve is a tri-leaflet structure with anterior, septal, and posterior leaflets. There are generally three papillary muscles arising from the right ventricle to support the tricuspid valve. A large number of disease processes may affect tricuspid valve leaflets and their supporting structures. These include rheumatic, [ ] infective, [ ] traumatic, [ ] and ischemic, [ ] carcinoid, [ ] myxomatous, [ ] and collagen-vascular diseases. [ ] Pathologic involvement of the tricuspid valve may occur concomitantly in patients who have myxomatous degeneration of the mitral valve and mitral valve prolapse. The most common etiology of organic tricuspid valve disease is rheumatic pancarditis. Rheumatic tricuspid valve disease is almost always associated with severe mitral valve disease [ ] and, in the majority of patients, with aortic valve disease as well. Pathologic changes found in patients with organic tricuspid valve disease are usually less extensive than those affecting left-sided cardiac valves. However, the same processes of fibrous thickening of the leaflets, [ ] thickening and shortening of the chordae tendineae, and fusion at the commissures are involved. Calcification may occur but is rarely as extensive as in mitral and aortic valves.

http://www.ctsnet.org/edmunds/Chapter35section2.html

Extractions: Systemic venous hypertension with signs of right-sided heart failure is the hallmark of important tricuspid valve disease, and symptoms include jugular venous distension, peripheral edema, ascites, hepatomegaly, and in advanced cases, a pulsatile liver. Subjective determination of the severity of these findings is an important feature of the preoperative assessment to determine whether and which tricuspid valve intervention is required in an individual undergoing surgery for concomitant left-sided valvular heart lesions. Cardiac catheterization is useful for evaluating the tricuspid valve. At catheterization, in patients with significant tricuspid incompetence, the right atrial pressure tracing reveals elevation of the mean right atrial pressure, absence of the x descent, and a prominent v or c-v wave. As the severity of tricuspid regurgitation increases, the contour of the right atrial pressure wave increasingly resembles right ventricular pulse pressure. Right atrial and ventricular end-diastolic pressures are usually elevated in tricuspid regurgitation. Before operation, it is often difficult to determine whether tricuspid regurgitation is a primary abnormality of the tricuspid valve and its chordae or whether it is secondary to left-sided disease. Pulmonary arterial systolic pressure greater than 60 mmHg suggests left-sided valvular disease as the etiology for the tricuspid regurgitation. Catheterization in patients with significant tricuspid stenosis reveals a diastolic pressure gradient between the right atrium and ventricle. The gradient increases during inspiration and decreases during expiration. A mean diastolic pressure gradient greater than 5 mmHg often produces signs and symptoms of systemic venous hypertension. In patients who are still in normal sinus rhythm and not in atrial fibrillation, the right atrial

Extractions: Etiologies include: Late stage rheumatic heart disease (may produce either stenosis or incompetence and is almost always associated with mitral valve disease), carcinoid syndrome (stenosis), and bacterial endocarditis (IV drug users). Clinically, patients have an enlarged pulsatile liver and increased jugular venous pressures. On CXR there is right atrial enlargement. REFERENCES:

Extractions: Community Advisor Search Send to a friend Home Diseases, Conditions and Injuries by Michelle Badash, MS Definition Causes Risk Factors ... Organizations Tricuspid valve disease refers to damage to the tricuspid heart valve. This valve is located between the atrium (upper chamber) and the ventricle (lower pumping chamber) of the right side of the heart. The tricuspid valve has three cusps, or flaps, that control the direction and flow of blood. The two main types of tricuspid valve disease are: Rheumatic fever is the most common cause of tricuspid valve disease. Less common causes include: A risk factor is something that increases your chances of getting a disease or condition.

http://www.kaymed.com/medterms_ts.htm

Extractions: Tricuspid stenosis is an uncommon valvular lesion. It is due to rheumatic fever and is always associated with rheumatic mitral valve disease and sometimes combined with mitral valve disease and aortic valve disease as well. Tricuspid stenosis occurs in about 5% of patients with rheumatic mitral valve disease. The symptoms of tricuspid stenosis are usually those of the concomitant mitral stenosis or mitral regurgitation. These are shortness of breath on exertion and tiredness. The tricuspid stenosis may be associated with various degrees of tricuspid regurgitation (leaking) due to deformity of the valve. The disease of the tricuspid valve, if severe enough, will produce swelling of the liver, fluid in the abdomen and edema (swelling of the lower extremities due to fluid). The reason for these findings is that blood is restricted from flowing through the stenotic (narrowed) tricuspid valve and into the right ventricle (right lower chamber of the heart). Diagnosis of the tricuspid valvular and mitral valvular disease can be made by echocardiography. One never sees rheumatic aortic and tricuspid valve involvement without mitral involvement in the rheumatic process. However, patients may have rheumatic tricuspid stenosis and mitral stenosis without aortic valve disease. Prior to operation, one must perform coronary arteriography to determine whether the coronary arteries have significant blockages as well. If the coronary arteries are significantly obstructed they should have bypasses at the time of surgery on the mitral and tricuspid valves. The aortic valve should be repaired or replaced at the time of surgery as well if it is involved.

Extractions: The cause of tricuspid stenosis is usually rheumatic in origin and as such is rarely seen in Western counrties. Tricuspid disease occurs in fewer than 5% of patients who present with rheumatic heart disease. Furthermore, it nearly always occurs in association with mitral and aortic valve disease. Clinical features: More often than not the symptoms of associated mitral and aortic valve disease predominate, however, tricuspid stenosis may cause symptoms similar to that of right heart failure with hepatic discomfort and peripheral oedema. The main clinical feature, however, is a raised jugular venous presuure due to loss of normal rapid right ventricular filling. A mid-diastolic murmur which is usually best heard at the lower left or right sternal edge. This murmur is usually higher-pitched than that of mitral stenosis and is increased by inspiration. Right heart failure may precipitate hepatomegaly with presystolic pulsation, ascites and peripheral oedema. Investigations: Echocardiograph and Doppler: the vlave has similar appearances to that of rheumatic mitral stenosis such as thickened immobile cusps, a reduced valve area and a reduced rate of diastolic filling of the left ventricle

http://www.upei.ca/~cidd/Diseases/cardiovascular diseases/tricuspid dysplasia.ht

Extractions: What is tricuspid valve dysplasia? The atrioventricular (AV) valves in the heart ensure that the blood flows from the atria to the ventricles when the heart beats. Malformation (dysplasia) of the right atrioventricular (tricuspid) valve causes backflow of blood into the right atrium, or tricuspid regurgitation. There may also be narrowing (stenosis) of the valve. Due to the dysplastic valve, the heart works less efficiently. How is tricuspid dysplasia inherited? The mode of inheritance is undefined. What breeds are affected by tricuspid dysplasia This is mostly seen in larger breeds, especially the borzoi, boxer, German shepherd, Great Dane, Great Pyrenees, Irish setter, Labrador retriever, Newfoundland, old English sheepdog, and Weimaraner. Tricuspid dysplasia is more common in males than females. For many breeds and many disorders, the studies to determine the mode of inheritance or the frequency in the breed have not been carried out, or are inconclusive. We have listed breeds for which there is a general consensus among those investigating in this field and among veterinary practitioners, that the condition is significant in this breed. What does tricuspid dysplasia Often animals will live for several years without developing heart disease. More severely affected animals with a greater degree of regurgitation and/or stenosis across the defective valve, will develop right-sided heart failure. Signs may include cool limbs and a distended abdomen due to an enlarged liver or build-up of fluid. Your dog may also have a reduced tolerance for exercise and may experience fainting or collapse due to an abnormal heart rhythm.

Extractions: Abnormalities of the tricuspid valve (TV) are an uncommon finding at post-mortem (PM) in the horse, but tricuspid regurgitation (TR) can be found in aniwith no gross valvular lesions. Although TR is not well documented in the literature, it is not as uncommon as some reports would suggest. TR can result from pulmonary hypertension due to pulmonary disease such as severe inflammatory small airway disease (COPD). Pulmonary hypertension may also result from left-sided CHF. The TV may be particularly likely to leak as a result of dilation of the valve annulus because of the three leaflet structure. It is also possible that dilation of the right side occurs as a result of the normal eccentric hypertrophy which results from exercise training and may lead to TR. TR detected by DE is more common in human athletes than in sedentary individuals and a similar situation may occur in trained racehorses.
