The Essential Role of Ongoing Reassessment of Patients With Secondary Tricuspid Regurgitation
This case report describes a patient diagnosed with severe secondary tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and pulmonary hypertension. Initial improvement with heart failure therapy was followed by a worsening of TR despite optimal medical management. Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair successfully addressed TR, resulting in marked clinical improvement.
