Overview
Tricuspid stenosis (TS) is the least common valvular disease. TS is rarely an isolated disease, it is mostly associated with mitral valve abnormalities, and/or concomitant tricuspid regurgitation. Approximately 8% of patients with rheumatic heart disease develop isolated TS, while up to 50% develop tricuspid regurgitation and TS.[1] The prevalence of TS is lower in developed countries compared to developing countries due to the low prevalence of rheumatic heart disease, which is the most common cause of TS.
