Abstract
|
|
|
|
Optimal surgical timing is of crucial importance for the treatment of valvular heart diseases. Clinical implications of functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) are increasingly being recognized. In contrast to the well-established treatment strategies for left-sided valve disease, optimal surgical timing of functional TR has not yet been established. Several lines of evidence have accumulated over the past 10 years, and now is the perfect time to review the data. The present article reviews the clinical implications and treatment strategies of functional TR, particularly in relation to optimal surgical timing.
