title: [Pathogenesis of tricuspid valve regurgitation in patients with implanted of right-ventricular electrode].
abstract: Permanent pacemakers could provoke or enhance preexisting tricuspid valve regurgitation. Pacemaker electrode implantation provokes local inflammatory process and subsequent permanent tissue remodeling, particularly in area of neighboring valve apparatus. As a consequence valve regurgitation may occur. It is supposed that valve perforation and right ventricle contraction asynchrony caused by right ventricle apex stimulation may lead to tricuspid valve regurgitation. Presented work shows current literature review according this topic.
