Abstract

The tricuspid valve complex consists of three leaflets (anterior, posterior and septal), the cordae tendinae, the papillary muscle, the tricuspid annulus, and the right atrial and right ventricular myocardium. Successful valve function depends on the integrity and coordination of these components. There are two types of tricuspid regurgitation, primary and secondary. Secondary (functional) is more common than the primary type and leads to dilatation of the right ventricle and tricuspid annulus due to volume overload
