Question
Hello doctor,
I have tricuspid regurgitation and stenosis. During this epidemic, I couldn't go to the doctor and had to use the old prescription to buy medicine at the store to take. After 2 months, my health got worse before the epidemic, I was diagnosed with early heart failure by the doctor, if I have heart failure now, can my heart failure be treated with surgery? Thanks for the advice doctor.

Hello,
With the question “Can heart failure be treated with surgery? , please answer as follows:
Tricuspid regurgitation is very common if mild regurgitation does not cause any symptoms. If you have been diagnosed with heart failure, your doctor will need to look for the cause of your heart failure, such as regurgitation (moderate to severe, mild regurgitation that doesn't cause heart failure), stenosis, congenital heart disease, heart failure, or heart failure. myocardium,...
Depending on different causes, there will be different treatment strategies with surgery or intervention or medical treatment. Some causes can be completely cured. You should go back to a higher level cardiologist for the most accurate advice and treatment.
In addition, if you unfortunately have heart failure, close monitoring and adherence to treatment is one of the important steps to improve quality of life and treatment effectiveness.
If you still have questions about the surgical treatment of heart failure, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for examination. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
