Descriptor English: Tricuspid Valve Prolapse
Descriptor Spanish: Prolapso de la Válvula Tricúspide
Descriptor prolapso valvular tricuspídeo
Entry term(s) prolapso de la válvula tricúspide
prolapso tricuspídeo
Scope note: Protrusión anormal de una o más valvas de la VÁLVULA TRICÚSPIDE hacia la AURÍCULA DERECHA durante la SÍSTOLE. Ello propicia que el reflujo de sangre hacia la aurícula derecha instaure una INSUFICIENCIA DE LA VÁLVULA TRICÚSPIDE y SOPLO SISTÓLICO. Sus causas más comunes no son las anomalías valvulares primarias sino, más bien, la dilatación del VENTRÍCULO DERECHO y el anillo tricuspideo.

Tree number(s): C14.280.484.400.875
RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D014263
Scope note: Abnormal protrusion of one or more of the leaflets of TRICUSPID VALVE into the RIGHT ATRIUM during SYSTOLE. This allows the backflow of blood into right atrium leading to TRICUSPID VALVE INSUFFICIENCY; SYSTOLIC MURMURS. Its most common cause is not primary valve abnormality but rather the dilation of the RIGHT VENTRICLE and the tricuspid annulus.
