Abstract

The negative impact of tricuspid regurgitation on prognosis in now well established. It also appears clear that surgical and possibly percutaneous treatment should be performed before reaching a point of no return with advanced heart failure and deterioration of right ventricle function. Percutaneous treatment has been divided into coaptation restoration devices, annuloplasty devices, and ortho- or heterotopic valve replacement. The present article offers a brief review of diagnostic modalities beyond echocardiography, surgical treatment as well as of the multiple recent development in the percutaneous treatment of this frequent condition.
