Tricuspid Stenosis Tricuspid Obstruction

Categories: Uncategorized
Sources: Disturbances Of The Heart

This is rare and probably always congenital, and is supposed to be

due to an inflammation of the endocardium during intra-uterine life.

In early childhood it is possible that it may be associated with

left-side endocarditis.



A special treatment of the heart, if any is needed, would probably

not be indicated unless there was associated tricuspid

insufficiency, when digitalis might be used.
