Overview
The main therapy is treatment of the underlying cause. In most cases, surgery is not indicated since the root problem lies with a dilated or damaged right ventricle. When surgical treatment is done, it is usually done as part of another procedure, most commonly mitral valve repair for mitral regurgitation.

Indications for Surgery
Shown below is an algorithm depicting the indications for tricuspid valve surgery adapted from the 2014 AHA/ACC guideline for the management of patients with valvular heart disease. If the patient does not meet any of the decision pathways in the algorithm, regular monitoring with medical therapy is recommended and surgery is not indicated.[1]

Surgical Methods
Principal surgical technique: The principal surgical repair for secondary TR is tricuspid annuloplasty. The aim of tricuspid annuloplasty is to improve leaflet coaptation by correcting annular dilatation and restoring annular geometry. The two principle surgical methods are:[2][3]
- Ring annuloplasty: It is regarded as the standard for surgical repair. The size of the tricuspid annulus is permanently fixed by implantation of a rigid or semirigid prosthetic, undersized ring, and it is associated with a reduced incidence of late, recurrent tricuspid regurgitation.
- Suture annuloplasty: It is technically easy and can be done quickly. Also, compared with ring annuloplasty, a prosthetic implant is not used with suture annuloplasty and the risk of postoperative conduction disturbances is lower.
Other methods:[2]
- Adjunctive repair techniques: This may be necessary for augmentation of the effects of ring annuloplasty in patients with marked leaflet tethering and right ventricular remodeling. The long-term outcomes and durability of these adjunctive techniques are not well established. Types of adjunctive repair techniques are listed in the table below.
| Anterior leaflet augmentation using autologous pericardial patch | “Clover” technique | Double orifice valve technique |

- Tricuspid valve replacement: Should be undertaken when valve repair is not technically feasible or predictably durable. Valve repair should be considered as a first option in patients with secondary tricuspid regurgitation and marked right ventricular remodeling and leaflet tethering, and in patients with complex primary tricuspid regurgitation or severe tricuspid stenosis. Bioprosthetic valves are currently favored, however, no differences in survival or adverse events at long-term follow-up have been recorded in patients receiving mechanical or biological valves.
- Transcatheter therapies: The safety and feasibility of transcatheter therapies for treating severe tricuspid regurgitation are still being investigated. Three types of transcatheter therapies have recently emerged for treating severe tricuspid regurgitation:
- Heterotopic caval transcatheter valve implantation
- Transcatheter tricuspid valve annuloplasty
- Coaptation device
- Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement: This has been done in experimental studies in ewes, it has not been done in humans.[4]
