Tricuspid Valve Regurgitation

Tricuspid Valve Regurgitation - Symptoms

Tricuspid valve regurgitation can affect the heart function and can cause symptoms such as:

Difficulty breathing
Abdominal swelling
Leg swelling

In severe and long-standing cases, it can affect the function of various organs such as the liver and the kidney.

Patients with tricuspid valve regurgitation usually remain asymptomatic (no symptoms) for a long period of time. When symptoms develop, the severity of tricuspid valve regurgitation is usually at the advanced stage.
