Overview
Echocardiography is the imaging modality of choice for tricuspid atresia. Findings include:
- Atrial septal defectASD
- Ventricular septum defect VSD
- Patent ductus arteriosus PDA
- Aortic arch anomaly
- Theleft ventricle is larger than the right ventricle
- Color flow doppler is absent between theright atrium and right ventricle
Echocardiography
Shown below is an ECHO image demonstrating atresic tricuspid valve and ventricular septal defect.
Shown below is a short video of an echocardiogram of a patient with tricuspid atresia.

Shown below is a echocardiogram of a 20 day old neonate with tricuspid valve atresia. This congenital anomaly is not compatible with life unless there is a right-to-left shunt. In the case presented below, there is VSD and ASD, and it represents about 1% of all congenital anomalies.
