One-year results show improvement of severe tricuspid regurgitation and quality-of-life improvements with transcatheter edge-to-edge repair in a select patient population.
A Closer Look at Tricuspid Regurgitation in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
When assessing patients with PAH and secondary TR, it’s time to pay more attention to intrinsic right ventricular function, remodeling and hemodynamics. So suggests a new mechanistic study.
First Transcatheter TricValve System Implanted for Tricuspid Regurgitation in North America
The investigational bicaval device promises a potential solution for patients with severe TR and right heart failure who currently have no treatment options.
Isolated Tricuspid Valve Surgery for Right Heart Failure: A Call to Broaden Patient Eligibility
A study showing good early outcomes after isolated tricuspid valve surgery supports expanding surgical candidacy criteria and operating earlier on patients with functional tricuspid regurgitation.

How Broadly Is Concomitant Tricuspid Repair Indicated as Part of Surgery for Degenerative Mitral Regurgitation?
The jury is still out on whether patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation and less than severe tricuspid regurgitation should undergo tricuspid annuloplasty along with mitral valve surgery.
Large Cohort Study of Isolated Tricuspid Regurgitation Yields Novel Risk Score to Guide Care
The study’s resulting risk score predicts mortality outcomes with the aim of providing management guidance. A companion study shows that surgery appears to yield a survival benefit in both primary and secondary TR.
