An uncommon and challenging finding regarding the tricuspid valve: case report, clinical considerations, and practical management
Given the lesion's morphological features, the patient's asymptomatic status, and the absence of a precipitating event suggestive of an alternative diagnosis, we concluded that the most likely diagnosis is aseptic tricuspid valve aneurysm. Following a multidisciplinary heart team discussion, surgical intervention was deemed unnecessary.
