| Popis: | Tricuspid valve regurgitation (TR) increases adverse outcomes in children with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). Changes in tricuspid valve (TV) annulus and leaflet geometry have been described but the underlying causes for TR in HLHS remain uncertain. We aimed to examine the association between left ventricular (LV) size and TR in infants with HLHS as right ventricular (RV)–LV interactions may be important in TR development. Echocardiograms of 50 infants with HLHS were reviewed. LV size, RV function, TR grade, TV annulus z-score, and aortic arch obstruction were examined at birth and 1 year of age (or the latest study post-bidirectional Glenn anastomosis if the patient was |
