Why the study?

Research on the tricuspid valve, functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR), and treatments has been limited by the pervasive expectation that FTR naturally regresses after left-sided valve repair.

Key Points

The paper aims to summarize recent advances in understanding tricuspid valve function and its role in functional tricuspid regurgitation.
Review of in-vivo and in-vitro investigations on tricuspid valve function.
Quantification of biomechanical properties of the tricuspid valve and surrounding heart tissue.
Computational modeling to analyze biomechanical and physiological function of the tricuspid valve.
In-depth analysis reveals alterations in tricuspid valve function directly impact the onset of functional tricuspid regurgitation.
Quantitative data on the biomechanical properties have been significantly enhanced through recent studies.
Computational models provide novel insights that inform surgical approaches and strategies for managing tricuspid regurgitation.
