Is a small amount of tricuspid regurgitation normal?

Tricuspid regurgitation can be divided into primary and secondary two types. Primary tricuspid regurgitation is mostly caused by rheumatic heart disease, endocarditis, congenital tricuspid valve malformation, etc. Secondary tricuspid regurgitation is mostly caused by right ventricular dilatation. No matter how much tricuspid regurgitation is, it is abnormal phenomenon and should be treated in time to control the development of the disease. Most patients can be controlled after regular treatment, and the prognosis is good.

If not treated in time, it can lead to continuous development of the disease and damage to the heart.
