Surgery for Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation in Adult Atrial Septal Defect - An Increasing Subject in a Decreasing Matter.

Introduction: Functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is known to complicate adult atrial septal defect (ASD), but its management is still under debate. We reviewed our experience in ASD surgery, focusing on associated functional TR and its treatment.

Methods: This retrospective study (2005-2019) included 206 consecutive adult ASD surgical cases without associated valve pathology, except functional TR.
