Hello doctor. My uncle had an aneurysm, tricuspid valve regurgitation, blood clots forming bubbles at the heart stem, cerebral vascular occlusion, arteries in 1 leg and 1 arm, and 1 in the abdomen. There was treatment in Binh Thuan and now he was transferred to a higher level, but the results showed that the possibility of him having surgery is very low. So now my family has to deal with it and is waiting for the second test result from the hospital. My uncle has an aneurysm, tricuspid valve regurgitation, and cerebral vascular occlusion, what should be the best treatment? Hope your doctor can help you.

Hello. I need to tell you which aneurysm you have, the degree of tricuspid regurgitation, whether there is pulmonary hypertension? Results and ultrasound or CT images of the blocked arteries are needed to initially suggest a course of treatment.
As for the situation of "blood pooling into bubbles right at the heart stem", the doctor has not yet figured it out. With the health status of uncle, it is best for you and your family to discuss with the treating doctor or you can take him to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for examination and in-depth consultation.
Thank you for trusting and sharing your concerns with the question “How should an aneurysm, tricuspid valve regurgitation, and cerebral vascular occlusion be treated?” to Vinmec. Best regards.
