A member asked:
Can both tricuspid valve stenosis and tricuspid regurgitation result in hypertrophy in the right atrium?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sort of: The right atrium tends to enlarge somewhat with both conditions; it is more so with tricuspid stenosis. Technically though it is an enlargement, not a hypertrophy (which means muscular thickening). Ra enlargement with tr would imply either severe tr or very elevated pulmonary resistance pressures.
