Abstract
Introduction: Isolated tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is very rare and is associated with many conditions, frequently is seen in association with drug abuse, endocarditis or chest trauma. Case report: More commonly TR is associated with other cardiac abnormalities such as end stage aortic or mitral valve disease most often Mitral stenosis, elevated pulmonary artery pressure leads to right ventricular (RV) strain and eventually RV failure with TR. RV can compensate for volume overload. On the other hand pressure overload is not well tolerated by RV. Conclusion: Most symptoms associated with TR are directly related to increased RV afterload.
