Background: Hypothyroidism is associated with multiple heart diseases such as tricuspid regurgitation (TR). We aimed to investigate in the prognosis of TR induced by hypothyroidism.
Methods: We conducted a cohort study included all patients with severe primary TR. Long term prognosis of TR induced by hypothyroidism was compared to the prognosis of other severe primary TR causes.
Results: Among 43 patients with severe primary TR, 19 patients presented hypothroism considered as the only cause of severe TR. Thirteen females patients had hypothyroidism. Hypothyroidism was associated with significantly higher renal failure with no difference in hypertension, diabetes and atrial fibrillation or flutter. At two-years evluation, there were a sgnificantly higher prevalence rehospitalization and mortality a in patients with hypothyroidisme despite the treatment of hypothroidism.
| hypothyroidism | Other causes | p | |
| Right ventricle dysfunction | 14 (73.7%) | 11 (45.8%) | 0.06 |
| Rehospitalization | 8 (61.5%) | 2 (14.3%) | 0.01 |
| Mortality | 7 (36.8%) | 0 | 0.001 |
Conclusion: Despite adequat hypothroidism treatment, severe TR induced by hypothyroidism had a long term poor prognosis.
