Abstract : Atrial Functional’ Tricuspid Regurgitation’ (AFTR) is defined as Tricuspid Regurgitation due to right’ atrial (RA) remodelling or due to lone tricuspid annular dilatation, without any primary or secondary cause, except for Atrial Fibrillation/Atrial Flutter induced and without any left heart failure and pulmonary hypertension.
