[[Tricuspid stenosis]] (TS) is characterized by structural changes in the [[tricuspid valve]]. The most common cause of [[tricuspid stenosis]] (TS) is [[rheumatic heart disease]]. Echocardiography is the gold standard test for the diagnosis of tricuspid stenosis which gives tricuspid peak inflow velocity and degree of thickening of tricuspid valve leaflets.

Overview

Tricuspid stenosis (TS) is characterized by structural changes in the tricuspid valve. The most common cause of tricuspid stenosis (TS) is rheumatic heart disease. Echocardiography is the gold standard test for the diagnosis of tricuspid stenosis which gives tricuspid peak inflow velocity and degree of thickening of tricuspid valve leaflets.

Staging of Tricuspid stenosis

  • Based on the valve anatomy, hemodynamics, and consequences tricuspid stenosis can be staged into the following:[6][7][8][9][10]
Stage Definition Valve anatomy Valve hemodynamics Hemodynamic consequences Symptoms
C, D Severe TS Thickened, distorted, calcified leaflets
  • T ½ ≥190 ms 
  • Valve area ≤1.0 cm2
Right atrial / Inferior vena cava enlargement
  • Stage C-No symptoms
  • Stage D-Symptoms variable and dependent on the severity of associated valve disease and degree of obstruction
