Introduction: Although myocardial injury is common after blunt chest trauma, tricuspid valve injury associated with traumatic atrial septal defect resulting in acute hypoxia is an infrequent event. We report an unusual case of blunt chest trauma referred to us for unexplained hypoxemia, emphasizing the unusual nature of injury and the importance of comprehensive cardiac evaluation in such cases.

Case Report: A 35-year-old male presented to the emergency department after falling from a tree from an approximate height of 15 feet.

Traumatic tricuspid regurgitation (TTR) is an uncommon cause of acute right ventricular dysfunction. The surgical approach can be complex, and repair tends to have a lower success rate when right heart failure symptoms are present. We present a case of a 56-year-old man with chronic isolated tricuspid valve flail and severe TTR due to high-energy blunt chest trauma from a vehicle accident 24 years prior.

Article Synopsis
  • * Mitral valve repair was successful in 90.9% of cases, with posterior leaflet lesions showing the highest success rates, while the in-hospital mortality rate was low at 0.6%.
  • * Results indicate that despite the emergence of less invasive techniques, surgical repair remains the best option for most DMR patients, with a 5-year survival rate of 95.5%.

Background And Objective: Within recent years, transcatheter tricuspid edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) has emerged as a safe and effective treatment option in patients with secondary tricuspid regurgitation (TR). However, for primary TR, data on the robustness and durability of TR reduction 1 year following T-TEER is limited.

Methods: All consecutive patients treated with T-TEER for TR at two high-volume centers between September 2018 and December 2022 were enrolled in a registry.

Background: The aim of this study was to report the long-term results of the clover and edge-to-edge repair techniques for complex tricuspid regurgitation (TR).

Methods: This was a single-center observational study. A competing risks proportional-hazards regression model, using the Fine and Gray model, was performed to analyze the time to TR ≥2+, considering death as a competing risk.
