Isolated tricuspid valve regurgitation following chest trauma is rare but often benign. Diagnosis is aided by echocardiography, with surgery potentially delayed for decades, as seen in two long-undiagnosed cases.

Area of Science:

Cardiology
Trauma Surgery
Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

Nonpenetrating chest trauma can rarely cause isolated tricuspid valve regurgitation.
The clinical presentation is typically benign, allowing for delayed surgical intervention.

Observation:

Two cases of traumatic tricuspid regurgitation are presented.
Patients remained largely asymptomatic with mild symptoms for 16 and 43 years post-injury.

Findings:

Two-dimensional Doppler echocardiography is crucial for diagnosing traumatic injury to the tricuspid valve apparatus (chordae tendineae, papillary muscles).
Delayed diagnosis is possible even after several decades.

Implications:

This highlights the potential for delayed presentation of traumatic tricuspid regurgitation.

Echocardiography is vital for identifying subtle cardiac damage after chest trauma.
