Explanation

"Normal appearance of the tricuspid and mitral valves" refers to the healthy and typical look of two important parts of the heart. The tricuspid valve controls blood flow within the right side of the heart, while the mitral valve does the same on the left side. When a doctor says they have a "normal appearance," it means they look as they should, without any signs of disease or damage. This is a good thing, as problems with these valves can lead to serious heart conditions.
