[2/10] Impt to understand #TricuspidValve 1⃣ Anatomy
3 leaflets ⬇️ + fibrous annulus + 2 papillary 💪🏽 + chordae tendinae + RA/RV ❤️
⬛️ Anterior 🍃 (largest)
◾️Posterior
▪️Septal (smallest)

[3/10] 2⃣ Etiologies = Structural (1º) vs. Functional (FTR)
Keep chart ⬇️ DDx in mind when reading #EchoFirst
~80% of significant TR = FTR/2º to TA dilatation + leaflet tethering ⬅️ RV remodeling ⬅️ volume and/or pressure overload
Structural (1º) cause = less common
