Delayed diagnosis of severe traumatic tricuspid regurgitation after traffic injury.

ABSTRACT: Traumatic accidents sometimes cause primary traumatic tricuspid regurgitation (TR), and the diagnosis is occasionally delayed due to the load adaptability of the right ventricle, which may lead to fatal outcomes. Here, we report a case of a 28-year-old man with traumatic TR, which presented with late-onset exertional dyspnea 5 years after a blunt chest injury from a bicycle accident. The chordae tendineae of anterior tricuspid leaflet was ruptured with right heart dilatation, and he underwent surgical tricuspid valvuloplasty. For the patients having a chest traumatic accident, echocardiographic screening is recommended considering TR occurrence. <Learning objective: The early detection with echocardiographic screening after chest traumatic accident followed by immediate surgical intervention is crucial to improve the prognosis of traumatic tricuspid regurgitation.>.

A Case of Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation Related to Traumatic Papillary Muscle Rupture.

Project description:A 25-year-old male presented after a motor vehicle accident with tricuspid valve (TV) regurgitation, due to a flail TV secondary to papillary muscle rupture. We highlight the importance of three-dimensional echocardiographic imaging of the tricuspid valve and its utility in aiding a successful surgical repair.

Traumatic tricuspid valve regurgitation: A two case series.

Project description:Traumatic tricuspid valve injury is rare, accounting for 0.02% of traumatic injuries. The majority of cases result from blunt force trauma to the chest, however penetrating injuries have been documented in literature. Patients' can be in the full spectrum of disease, from asymptomatic to cardiogenic shock. Indications for surgery include right heart failure or evidence of right heart volume overload in the setting of significant tricuspid regurgitation. Early surgical repair is warranted to preserve right ventricular function. Surgery also needs to be planned in conjunction with the patients' other injuries. In some cases, it may be beneficial for surgery to be delayed whilst the patient is closely observed, in order for the patient to recover from concomitant injuries. We report two cases of tricuspid regurgitation in the context of blunt trauma, and our approach to the management of these patients.

Tricuspid Edge-to-Edge Repair Versus Tricuspid Valve Replacement for Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation.

Project description:Background and objectivesTricuspid valve (TV) repair techniques other than annuloplasty remain challenging and frequently end in tricuspid valve replacement (TVR) in complicated cases. However, the results of TVR are suboptimal compared with TV repair. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of TV edge-to-edge repair (E2E) compared to TVR for severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR).MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed 230 patients with severe TR who underwent E2E (n=139) or TVR (n=91) from 2001 to 2020. Clinical and echocardiographic results were analyzed using inverse probability of treatment weighting analysis and propensity score matching.ResultsThe two groups showed no significant differences in early mortality and morbidities. During the mean follow-up of 106.2±68.8 months, late severe TR and TV reoperation rates were not significantly different between groups. E2E group, however, showed better outcomes in overall survival (p=0.023), freedom from significant tricuspid stenosis (TS) (trans-tricuspid pressure gradient ≥5 mmHg, p=0.021), and freedom from TV-related events (p<0.001). Matched analysis showed consistent results.ConclusionsE2E for severe TR presented more favorable clinical outcomes than TVR. Our study supports that E2E might be a valuable option in severe TR surgery, avoiding TVR.

Tricuspid valve regurgitation: current diagnosis and treatment.

Project description:Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is present in 1.6 million individuals in the United States and 3.0 million people in Europe. Functional TR, the most common form of TR, is caused by cardiomyopathies, LV valve disease, or pulmonary disease. The five-year survival with severe TR and HFrEF is 34%. Echocardiography can assess the TR etiology/severity, measure RA and RV size and function, estimate pulmonary pressure, and characterize LV disease. Management includes diuretics, ACE inhibitors, and aldosterone antagonists. Surgical annuloplasty or valve replacement should be considered in patients with progressive RV dilatation without severe LV dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension. Transcatheter repair/replacement is possible in patients with a LVEF <40%, dilated annuli, and impaired RV function. The diagnosis and treatment of TR, including coaptation, annuloplasty devices and prosthetic valves, success rates, morbidity/mortality, and trials are discussed. Transcatheter tricuspid valve repair/replacement is an emerging therapy for high-risk patients with TR who would otherwise have a dismal clinical prognosis.

Surgical management of traumatic tricuspid regurgitation: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundTraumatic tricuspid valve regurgitation is a rare condition related to blunt chest trauma. In the early phase, the patients may remain asymptomatic. Progressive tricuspid regurgitation leads to the development of symptoms thereafter. Progressive right ventricular dysfunction aggravates symptoms, and the diagnosis is made by subsequent echocardiography at a later time. The treatment is usually surgical, especially in younger patients.Case summaryWe describe a 30-year-old patient with traumatic tricuspid valve regurgitation after a motorcycle accident. No cardiac injury was detected at the moment of the collision, and the patient remained asymptomatic at the initial phase. Five years later, the patient was admitted to our hospital with symptoms of dyspnoea at exertion. Echocardiography demonstrated severe tricuspid valve regurgitation with right ventricle dilatation. Surgical tricuspid valve repair including ring annuloplasty and implantation of artificial chords via an endoscopic approach was performed. Surgery was complicated by impingement of the right coronary artery by one of the annuloplasty sutures, which was addressed by subsequent percutaneous coronary intervention.DiscussionTraumatic tricuspid valve regurgitation requires careful evaluation. Transthoracic echocardiography should be recommended to exclude post-traumatic tricuspid regurgitation after major blunt chest trauma. Early diagnosis is important to avoid right ventricular failure. First-line surgical treatment consists of tricuspid repair by means of ring annuloplasty and implantation of artificial chords.
