Article Synopsis
- - Severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a serious condition linked to high risks of illness and death, particularly in patients with active or multi-organ cancer, delaying necessary treatments.
- - A study at the Medical University of Vienna analyzed outcomes for 973 patients with severe TR, finding that 19% had active or historical cancer, with a notable increase in ten-year mortality among those with active cancers.
- - The research concluded that while severe TR significantly raises mortality rates in those with active cancer, having a history of cancer does not increase mortality compared to patients without cancer; interdisciplinary care is crucial for timely treatment.
