The condition should be described as a congenital malformation of the tricuspid valve (right atrioventricular valve) and its supporting structures (chordae tendineae, papillary muscles, valvular leaflets) resulting in tricuspid stenosis (narrowing) or regurgitation (insufficiency). Tricuspid valve dysplasia leads to increased volume load on the right atrium and ventricle towards the end of diastole. A stenotic tricuspid valve can limit ventricular filling during diastole and increased pressure as a result of increased volume can cause [[Heart Failure, Righ-Sided|right-sided congestive heart failure]].
