Overview
Tricuspid stenosis is mostly associated with mitral valve abnormalities. Common symptoms include dyspnea, peripheral edema, and fatigue. Tricuspid stenosis (TS) is the narrowing of the tricuspid orifice that obstructs blood flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle. Almost all cases result from rheumatic fever. Symptoms include a fluttering discomfort in the neck, fatigue, cold skin, and right upper quadrant abdominal discomfort. Jugular pulsations are prominent, and a presystolic murmur is often heard at the left sternal edge in the 4th intercostal space and is increased during inspiration. The diagnosis is by echocardiography. TS is usually benign, requiring no specific treatment, but symptomatic patients may benefit from surgery.
History and Symptoms
History
- Tricuspid stenosis is almost always due to rheumatic fever; tricuspid regurgitation is almost always also present, as is rheumatic mitral valvulopathy.[1][2]
- Rare causes of tricuspid stenosis include systemic lupus erythematosus, right atrial myxoma, congenital malformations, and metastatic tumors.
- The right atrium becomes hypertrophied and distended, and sequelae of right heart disease-induced heart failure develop but without right ventricular (RV) dysfunction; the RV remains underfilled and small.
- Uncommonly, atrial fibrillation occurs.
Common Symptoms
Common symptoms of tricuspid stenosis include:[3][4][5]
- The only symptoms of severe tricuspid stenosis are fluttering discomfort in the neck (due to giant a waves in the jugular pulse), fatigue and cold skin (due to low cardiac output), and right upper quadrant abdominal discomfort (due to an enlarged liver)[6]
- Out of proportion to dyspnea
- The primary visible sign is a giant flickering a wave with gradual y descent in the jugular veins
- Jugular venous distention may occur, increasing with inspiration (Kussmaul sign)
- The face may become dusky and scalp veins may dilate when the patient is recumbent (suffusion sign)
- Hepatic congestion and peripheral edema may occur
Less Common Symptoms
Less common symptoms of tricuspid stenosis include:[1][7]
- Fatigue
- Dyspnea
- Abdominal discomfort (due to hepatomegaly secondary to systemic venous congestion)
- Ascites
- Pedal edema
- leg edema
- Jugular venous distension
- Heart murmur
- Anasarca
