Abstract Background Functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) is common in left-sided heart pathology involving the mitral valve. The incidence, clinical impact, risk factors, and natural history of FTR in the setting of ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) are less known. Method We conducted a cohort study based on data collected from January 2012 to December 2014. Patients diagnosed with IMR were eligible for the study. The median follow-up was 5 years. The primary outcome is defined as FTR developing at any stage. Results Among the 134 IMR patients eligible for the study, FTR was detected in 29.9% (N = 40, 20.0% mild, 62.5% moderate, and 17.5% severe). In the FTR group, the average age was 60.7 ± 9.2 years (25% females), the mean LV ejection fraction (LVEF) was 37.3 ± 6.45 [%], LA area 46.4 ± 8.06 (mm2), LV internal diastolic diameter (LVIDD) 59.6 ± 3.94 (mm), RV fractional area change 22.3 ± 4.36 (%), systolic pulmonary artery pressure (SPAP) 48.4 ± 9.45 (mmHg). Independent variables associated with FTR development were age ≥ 65y [OR 1.2], failed revascularization, LA area ≥ 42.5 (mm2) [OR 17.1], LVEF ≤ 24% [OR 32.5], MR of moderate and severe grade [OR 419.4], moderate RV dysfunction [OR 91.6] and pulmonary artery pressure of a moderate or severe grade [OR 33.6]. During follow-up, FTR progressed in 39 (97.5%) patients. Covariates independently associated with FTR progression were lower LVEF, RV dysfunction, and PHT of moderate severity. LA area and LVIDD were at the margin of statistical significance (p = 0.06 and p = 0.05, respectively). Conclusion In our cohort study, FTR development and progression due to IMR was a common finding. Elderly patients with ischemic MR following unsuccessful PCI are at higher risk. FTR development and severity are directly proportional to LV ejection fraction, to the extent of mitral regurgitation, and SPAP. FTR tends to deteriorate in the majority of patients over a mean of 5-y follow-up.

Background— Despite correction of left-sided cardiac lesions, associated functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) that was surgically ignored can persist. It can also appear de novo. The aim of this study was to analyze TR in a group of patients who underwent successful revascularization and mitral valve repair (MVRep) for functional ischemic mitral regurgitation (MR). Methods and Results— Among 124 consecutive patients with MVRep, 70 left the operating room with MR ≤1+ and had a preoperative and follow-up transthoracic echocardiogra. Moderate or greater MR or TR was considered significant. Twenty-one patients (30%) had TR before surgery, and only 9 had TR repaired. The postoperative incidence of residual TR was not significantly different whether the tricuspid valve had been repaired (4 of 9 [44%]) or surgically ignored (8 of 12 [67%]). At last follow-up, 34 patients (49%) had significant TR. The incidence of TR increased from 25% at <1 year to 53% between 1 and 3 years and 74% at >3 years. Absence or presence of recurrent MR did not significantly affect TR (14 of 22 [64%] with MR versus 20 of 48 [42%] with no MR). Preoperative and postoperative tricuspid annulus size in patients with late TR was significantly larger than in patients without TR. Conclusions— Functional TR is frequently associated with functional ischemic MR. After MVRep, close to 50% of patients have TR. The incidence of postoperative TR increases with time. Preoperative tricuspid annulus dilation might be a predictor of late TR.
