Overview

Tricuspid stenosis is rarely an isolated disease.^[1] The most common cause of TS is rheumatic heart disease and it is usually associated with coexisting mitral valve and/or aortic valve abnormality.^[1] TS of rheumatic etiology usually occurs with tricuspid regurgitation. Tricuspid stenosis takes years to develop, with the exception of congenital complications of tricuspid stenosis include heart failure, liver failure, and stroke.^[2]

Natural history

The natural course of tricuspid stenosis is not well defined and it is extremely rare for TS to occur in isolation.^[1]

Complication

The complications of tricuspid stenosis are:

Right atrial enlargement
Atrial fibrillation

Prognosis
