Functional Tricuspid Insufficiency: Imaging, Surgical Indications, Restorative Techniques And Results
GIORNALE ITALIANO DI CARDIOLOGIA(2020)
摘要
Although the indications for surgical management of severe functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) are now generally accepted, controversy persists concerning the role of intervention for moderate TR. However, there is a trend for intervention in this setting, particularly in patients with annular dilation. Echocardiographic imaging is the gold standard to identify functional TR and distinguish it from a primitive or degenerative form. Currently, surgery remains the best approach for the interventional treatment of TR. Ring annuloplasty seems to provide better results than suture annuloplasty (De Vega technique) and rigid rings appear to be more reliable in the long term, in comparison with flexible bands. Tricuspid valve repair is more beneficial compared with replacement, except in highly selected cases of long-standing TR with multifactorial mechanism.
