Dr. Creighton Wright answered

Specializes in surgery

Possible: If there is pulmonary hypertension and pulmonary valve issue, then the tricuspid can be back pressured. In addition, the valve disease may affect more than one valve! rheumatic, marfan, prolapse etc. Your cardiologist can help decipher the variables with you.
