Özet
The insufficiency of the tricuspid valve developed due to blunt chest trauma is a rare and an insidiously progressing clinical incident. In this article we present a case which showed tricuspid insufficiency because of the rupture of the anterior papillary muscle due to trauma and which was treated surgically.
