  2. Tricuspid valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricuspid_valve

    The tricuspid valve, or right atrioventricular valve, is on the right dorsal side of the mammalian heart, at the superior portion of the right ventricle.The function of the valve is to allow blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle during diastole, and to close to prevent backflow (regurgitation) from the right ventricle into the right atrium during right ventricular ...

    The tricuspid valve is located between the right atrium and the right ventricle. If you have tricuspid atresia, the valve doesn’t have an opening, which blocks blood flow between the atrium and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koch's_triangle

    It is an anatomical area located at the base of the right atrium, and its boundaries are the coronary sinus orifice, tendon of Todaro, and the septal leaflet of the right atrioventricular valve (also known as the tricuspid valve). [2] It is anatomically significant because the atrioventricular node is located at the apex of the triangle. The ...

  5. Tricuspid regurgitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricuspid_regurgitation

    Tricuspid regurgitation (TR), also called tricuspid insufficiency, is a type of valvular heart disease in which the tricuspid valve of the heart, located between the right atrium and right ventricle, does not close completely when the right ventricle contracts ().

  6. Papillary muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papillary_muscle

    The papillary muscles are muscles located in the ventricles of the heart. They attach to the cusps of the atrioventricular valves (also known as the mitral and tricuspid valves) via the chordae tendineae and contract to prevent inversion or prolapse of these valves on systole (or ventricular contraction).

  7. Heart valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_valve

    Tricuspid atresia is the complete absence of the tricuspid valve which can lead to an underdeveloped or absent right ventricle. Pulmonary atresia is the complete closure of the pulmonary valve. Ebstein's anomaly is the displacement of the septal leaflet of the tricuspid valve causing a larger atrium and a smaller ventricle than normal.

    Tricuspid valve separates right chambers- atrium from ventricle. As its name suggest, it has 3 leaflets (anterior, posterior and septal), all attached at the annulus of the leaflet that notably lacks any fibrotic tissue. [37] Apart from the leaflets and annulus, it also consists of three papillary muscles and three sets of chordae tendineae. [38]
