Nonrheumatic tricuspid (valve) stenosis - what does this mean

Nonrheumatic tricuspid stenosis is a condition in which the tricuspid valve in the heart becomes narrowed, reducing blood flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle. this narrowing is caused by a variety of factors, including inflammation, scarring, and calcification of the valve leaflets, leading to a decreased ability of the valve to open and close properly.

What happens during the disease - nonrheumatic tricuspid (valve) stenosis

Nonrheumatic tricuspid stenosis is a condition in which the tricuspid valve of the heart is narrowed, resulting in decreased blood flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle. this narrowing can be caused by a number of factors, including inflammation of the valve, calcification of the valve, and congenital heart defects. when the valve is narrowed, the pressure in the right atrium increases, leading to right-sided heart failure and increased pressure in the pulmonary arteries. this can lead to symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and swelling in the legs.
