2. Tricuspid regurgitation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricuspid_regurgitation

   Tricuspid regurgitation (TR), also called tricuspid insufficiency, is a type of valvular heart disease in which the tricuspid valve of the heart, located between the right atrium and right ventricle, does not close completely when the right ventricle contracts .

3. Valvular heart disease - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valvular_heart_disease

   Tricuspid valve stenosis without co-occurrent regurgitation is highly uncommon and typically the result of rheumatic disease. It may also be the result of congenital abnormalities, carcinoid syndrome, obstructive right atrial tumors (typically lipomas or myxomas ), or hypereosinophilic syndromes.

4. Tricuspid valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricuspid_valve

   The tricuspid valve, or right atrioventricular valve, is on the right dorsal side of the mammalian heart, at the superior portion of the right ventricle.The function of the valve is to allow blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle during diastole, and to close to prevent backflow (regurgitation) from the right ventricle into the right atrium during right ventricular ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kussmaul's_sign

   The differential diagnoses of Kussmaul's sign includes constrictive pericarditis, restrictive cardiomyopathy, pericardial effusion, and severe right-sided heart failure. [citation needed]

6. Regurgitation (circulation) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regurgitation_(circulation)

   Tricuspid regurgitation: the backflow of blood from the right ventricle into the right atrium, owing to imperfect functioning (insufficiency) of the tricuspid valve. Regurgitation in or near the heart is often caused by valvular insufficiency (insufficient function, with incomplete closure, of the heart valves); for example, aortic valve ...

7. Carvallo's sign - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carvallo's_sign

   Tricuspid regurgitation Carvallo's sign is a clinical sign found in patients with tricuspid regurgitation . The pansystolic murmur found in this condition becomes louder during inspiration ; this sign enables it to be distinguished from mitral regurgitation .

8. Ebstein's anomaly - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebstein's_anomaly

   Severe tricuspid regurgitation with symptoms; Transient ischemic attack or stroke; The CCS further recommends patients who require operation for Ebstein's anomaly should be operated on by congenital heart surgeons who have substantial specific experience and success with this operation. Every effort should be made to preserve the native ...

9. Right atrial enlargement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_atrial_enlargement

   Other recognised causes are: right ventricular failure, tricuspid regurgitation, and atrial septal defect. [1] Right atrial enlargement (RAE) is clinically significant due to its prevalence in diagnosing supraventricular arrhythmias.
