Detailed explanation-1: -The tricuspid valve is located between the right atrium and the right ventricle. The pulmonary valve is located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery. The mitral valve is located between the left atrium and the left ventricle. The aortic valve is located between the left ventricle and the aorta.
Detailed explanation-2: -The tricuspid valve complex consists of three leaflets (anterior, posterior, and septal), the chordae tendinae, two discrete papillary muscles, the fibrous tricuspid annulus, and the right atrial and right ventricular myocardium (Figure 1).
Detailed explanation-3: -Two of the valves, the mitral and the tricuspid valves, move blood from the upper chambers of the heart (the atria) to the lower chambers of the heart (the ventricles). The other two valves, the aortic and pulmonary valves, move blood to the lungs and the rest of the body through the ventricles.
