Complications of transcatheter mitral valve replacement

Facilitator: W. Ben Ali

Summary

This session addresses complications arising during transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR), illustrated by challenging cases such as entangled snares, emergency interventions for prosthesis dislocation, vascular access difficulties, and repeat transapical mitral valve-in-valve replacements. It highlights the importance of anticipating and managing unexpected events to optimize patient outcomes.

Presentations available when logged in:

  • A tale of enragled snare
  • Emergency transcatheter intervention for acute mitral valve prosthesis dislocation- second TMVR
  • Twice transapical mitral valve-in-valve replacement: "expect the unexpected"
