Abstract:
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a common finding in patients with chronic cardiopathy, and often a marker of an advanced disease. Being silent or with symptoms intertwined with the primitive left heart disease, TR has often been neglected, leading to the late referral of patients with advanced right-heart failure. Hence, isolated tricuspid surgery has been associated with high morbidity and mortality rates, the worse of all valve interventions, and medical management has been limited to symptomatic treatment. In this context, percutaneous therapies for severe TR have gained traction, addressing the unmet therapeutic gap for a less invasive disease-modifying management. The aim of this review is to provide an updated overview on transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions, focusing on devices' characteristics, associated evidence, and future perspectives.
