Hello doctor,
I had an echocardiogram at the hospital, the doctor concluded: Mitral valve regurgitation 1/4, tricuspid regurgitation 1/4, PAPS = 20MMHG. Pulmonary valve regurgitation. So the doctor asked me if mitral valve regurgitation with tricuspid regurgitation requires treatment? Thank you doctor.

Hello,
With the question “Does mitral regurgitation with tricuspid regurgitation need treatment? , the doctor would like to answer as follows:
With the degree of abnormality as you mentioned in the question, these can be considered as "physiological" abnormalities. No specific treatment is needed if there is only regurgitation 1. /4 is as simple as you say. Follow up echocardiogram every 12 months for periodic evaluation
If you still have questions about mitral regurgitation and tricuspid regurgitation, you can go to the hospital. of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for your trust and question to Vinmec. Wishing you a lot of health
