Severe, untreated tricuspid regurgitation is associated with worse clinical outcomes. While isolated tricuspid valve (TV) surgery has been linked to poor long-term outcomes, transcatheter TV therapies, including edge-to-edge repair and transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR), have emerged as effective alternatives and have been shown to improve outcomes, leading to their regulatory approval in the United States. Conduction system abnormalities are commonly seen among patients undergoing TTVR due to the close proximity of the atrioventricular node and the His bundle to the TV annulus.

Aim: To assess the incremental value of real-time three-dimensional (3D) transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in visualizing tricuspid valve (TV) anatomy for procedural planning and guidance of transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) in cases of severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR).
Materials And Methods: An observational study was conducted on 54 patients with severe TR. The visualization of the TV leaflets during systole was graded semiquantitatively using predefined criteria: 0 points-no visible leaflet border or tissue; 1.

Background: Pulmonary hypertension is a contraindication to correction of tricuspid regurgitation.
Case Summary: A 75-year-old Italian woman with previous episodes of right heart failure was diagnosed with World Health Organization (WHO) functional class IV pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) complicated by torrential tricuspid regurgitation. After 6 months of treatment with diuretic agents, macitentan, and tadalafil, she improved to WHO functional class III, with a pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) decreasing from 5.
