Overview
Tricuspid stenosis is characterized by structural changes in the tricuspid valve. The pathophysiology of tricuspid valve depends on the underlying etiology. In rheumatic heart disease which is the most common cause of tricuspid stenosis, there is fibrous thickening of the valve leaflets and chordae tendineae with/without fusion of the commissures as a result of inflammation.[1]The obstruction to right ventricular filling due to the stenotic tricuspid valve can result in systemic venous hypertension and congestion.
Pathophysiology
- The tricuspid disease is characterized by diffuse fibrous thickening of the leaflets and fusion of 2 or 3 [2][3][4][5].
- Leaflet thickening usually occurs in the absence of calcific deposits, and the anteroseptal commissure is most commonly involved.
- Incompletely developed leaflets, shortened or malformed chordae, a small annulus, or an abnormal number or size of papillary muscles may result in TS.
- The valves consist of an outer layer of valve endothelial cells (VECs) surrounding three layers of the extracellular matrix each with specialized function and interspersed with interstitial valve cells (VICs).
- Genetic or acquired/environmental causes that disrupt the normal organization and composition of the extracellular matrix and communication between VECs and VICs alter valve mechanics and interfere with the valve leaflet function, culminating in heart failure.
- As a result of valvular stenosis, there is a persistent diastolic pressure gradient between the right atrium and right ventricle. This gradient increases when blood flow across the tricuspid valve increases, as occurs with inspiration and exercise, and decreases when blood flow decreases, such as with expiration[6].
- The primary result of TS is right atrial pressure elevation and consequent right-sided congestion[7].
- During sinus rhythm, the right atrial "a" wave is increased and may approach the level of right ventricular systolic pressure.
- The resting cardiac output may be reduced and fails to increase with exercise.
- This may contribute to the only modestly elevated left atrial and pulmonary arterial pressures seen when mitral valve disease is also present.
- As a result, most patients with significant tricuspid stenosis have systemic venous congestion with jugular venous distension, ascites, and peripheral edema.
- The pathophysiology of tricuspid stenosis depends on the underlying etiology:[1]
- Rheumatic tricuspid stenosis[8][9][1][10]:
- Diffuse scarring and fibrosis of the valve leaflets from inflammation. Fusion of the commissures may or may not occur.
- Chordae tendineae may become thickened and shortened.
- As a result of the dense collagen and elastic fibers that make up leaflet tissue, the normal leaflet layers become significantly distorted.
- Carcinoid heart disease:
- Fibrous white plaques located on the valvular and mural endocardium are characteristic presentations of carcinoid valve lesions[11][12].
- Valve leaflets become thick, rigid and smaller in area.
- Atrial and ventricular surfaces of the valve structure contain fibrous tissue proliferation.
- Congenital tricuspid stenosis:
- More common in infants
- Lesions may present in a number of different ways, either singularly or in any combination of the following:
- Incompletely developed leaflets
- Shortened or malformed chordae
- Small annuli
- Papillary muscles of abnormal size and number
- Infective endocarditis:
- Stenosis may develop as a result of large infected vegetations obstructing the opening of the tricuspid valve.
- Other conditions may mimic tricuspid stenosis by the mechanical obstruction of flow through the tricuspid valve:
- Supravalvular obstruction from congenital diaphragms
- Intracardiac or extracardiac tumors
- Thrombosis or emboli
- Large endocarditis vegetations
- Other conditions that impair right-sided filling
