Severe tricuspid regurgitation with biannular disjunction requiring surgical treatment: a case report.

This case report emphasizes the clinical significance of TAD as a potential cause of severe TR, even without significant MR. Tricuspid annular disjunction progresses more gradually compared with MAD. This case suggests that remodelling of the right atrium, particularly in chronic atrial fibrillation, may contribute to the development of TR. Despite diagnostic challenges due to the flexible and dynamic nature of the tricuspid annulus, this is the first report of TAD-induced severe TR necessitating surgical intervention. Accurately diagnosing TAD remains challenging with current imaging modalities, emphasizing the need for improved diagnostic tools to optimize treatment strategies.
