Question 1

report says there is trace tricuspid valve regurgitation, pg11mmhg. pulmonary valve has trace regurgitation .aortic valve is trileaflet with annulus of 1.19 cm. are these normal findings? the left side of her neck also pulsates?

Accepted Answer

: Prob normal depending on skill of the echocaridographer.  It would be good to tell us why it was done next time. Discuss with local Dr.

Question 2

carotid bruit in neck of 7 yr old. neck pulsates and is very pronounced. is this normal. what causes this? heart ultrasound normal except for trace tricuspid valve regurgitation. should a cardiac consultation be done?

Accepted Answer

: Yes, your kid should be examined by a pediatric cardiologist.

Question 3

heart murmur with normal echocardiogram. only showed trace mitral & tricuspid valve regurgitation. does this mean murmur is benign?

Accepted Answer

Yes: A murmur is just a sound made by blood flowing through your heart and valves. If the Echo is normal, trace mitral and tricuspid regurgitation is probably normal for you. Benign means not indicative of pathology or not pathological. You have a benign murmur.

Question 4

is it okay to have trace mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Trace mitral and tricuspid regurgitation by itself is nothing to worry about. There many people who live normal lives with this.  This usually diagnosed with an echo. The echo gives a lot more additional information so make sure you have conversation with your doctor to make sure you  you understand.

Question 5

my echo reads trace of mitral&tricuspid valve  regurgitation is that normal? have had chronic fatigue for months - have scleroderma and gastroparesis

Accepted Answer

Trivial: These findings on an echocardiogram are common and insignificant and shouldn't cause fatigue or any other symptoms. I assume that the rest of the echocardiogram was normal.

Question 6

how does tricuspid valve regurgitation affect hypertension?

Accepted Answer

It doesn't : Completely desperate although pulmonary HTN can make tricuspid regurgitation worse.

Question 7

i have subpulmonic vsd with left to right shunt with gradient - 86mmhg. will i need surgery? also i have a trivial tricuspid valve regurgitation.

Accepted Answer

VSD: It appears that you have a significant congenital heart defect which needs to be corrected. However your cardiologist is the best person to advise you.

Question 8

my cardiologist said that i have mild mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation but they are not harmful.but now i have ectopics when laying down. why?

Accepted Answer

These findings are: most likely unrelated as all of us experience occasional extra heart beats. You should go back to your cardiologist and tell him/her about your new symptoms. A long term monitor and perhaps a short course of drug therapy might be warranted. Discuss this with your health care professional.

Question 9

2yr has mild to moderate mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation. and has increased urinate, cough at night & low body temp. could flow be increasing?

Accepted Answer

Kidney function: Although this is theoretically possible, I would suggest kidney function studies including blood, urine and reanl ultrasouns. Consult you physician and make an appointment for follow up.

Question 10

my echo results- trivial mitral valve regurgitation, mild (1+-2+) pulmonic valve regurgitation, trivial (-1+) tricuspid valve regurgitation- normal?

Accepted Answer

Missing Data: Some important data are missing before i can say normal.What is pa pressure.
What  about lv function etc. If they  r normal then only i can comment on it sorry!
