Aberrant tendinous chords with tethering of the tricuspid leaflets: a congenital anomaly causing severe tricuspid regurgitation.
OBJECTIVE To define the entity of tricuspid regurgitation caused by tethering of the tricuspid valve leaflets by aberrant tendinous chords. DESIGN Retrospective study. SETTING Tertiary care centre (university teaching hospital). PATIENTS 10 patients with unexplained severe tricuspid regurgitation. METHODS The last 13 500 echocardiographic studies from our facility were reviewed to ident...
متن کاملGeneral anesthesia with remifentanil for cesarean section in a parturient with severe mitral and tricuspid regurgitation
Valvular heart lesions have deleterious effects on hemodynamics in parturients during pregnancy. Cesarean section with an opioid-based general anesthesia is used to alleviate the adverse effects. We described a case of a 28-year-old primigravida at 37 weeks’ gestation with a diagnosis of severe mitral regurgitation, tricuspid regurgitation, and pulmonary hypertension in active labor. Cesarean s...
متن کاملSevere tricuspid regurgitation mimicking constrictive pericarditis
PATIENT Female, 62 FINAL DIAGNOSIS: Tricuspid regurgitation Symptoms: Dyspnea exertional • fatigue • leg edema MEDICATION - Clinical Procedure: - Specialty: Cardiology. OBJECTIVE Challenging differential diagnosis. BACKGROUND Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) can mimic some hemodynamic findings of constrictive pericarditis (CP), due to the restraining effect of the enlarged right heart on inta...
متن کاملExcessive respiratory variation in tricuspid regurgitation systolic velocities in patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation.
AIMS Respiratory changes in tricuspid regurgitation (TR) systolic velocities are occasionally demonstrated by Doppler echocardiography in patients with TR. We tested the hypothesis that excessive respiratory changes in TR velocities are diagnostic of severe TR. METHODS AND RESULTS The difference between the maximal (expiratory) and minimal (inspiratory) TR systolic velocities during spontaneo...
