Isolated severe TR linked to poor prognosis, especially with pulmonary hypertension or left atrial enlargement.
The prognosis of isolated severe tricuspid regurgitation is variable and worsened by concomitant pulmonary hypertension, renal or hepatic dysfunction markers, and left atrial enlargement.

May support risk stratification in isolated severe TR; leaves open need for prospective validation before guiding interventions.
<0.001). Conclusions The prognosis of isolated severe TR is not always favorable. Careful attention should be paid to patients with concomitant risk factors, such as pulmonary hypertension, elevated blood urea nitrogen levels, decreased albumin levels, and left atrial enlargement.
