Abstract

Tricuspid regurgitation is the most frequent disease of the tricuspid valve. Of these, functional tricuspid regurgitation is the most frequent, and severe insufficiency is associated with an increasing risk of cardiovascular events and bad prognosis. The pathophysiology and assessment of tricuspid regurgitation is essential for transcatheter treatments, new treatment options. The aim of this short review is to summarise the assessment of tricuspid regurgitation and to show new transcatheter therapeutic options. Current experience with these new therapies is preliminary and further studies are needed to develop the evidence of transcatheter tricuspid valve therapy.
