Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement in carcinoid heart disease: A multimodality‑guided, patient-centered approach
17 Apr 2026
A 74-year-old woman with carcinoid syndrome develops progressive NYHA III dyspnoea and marked fatigue, despite well-controlled systemic symptoms. Echocardiography reveals torrential tricuspid regurgitation with carcinoid valve involvement, while surgical risk is deemed high due to age, frailty, and systemic disease. How would your Heart Team approach this...

Complications of transcatheter mitral valve replacement
17 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
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...
Percutaneous mitral balloon commissurotomy in unusual scenarios
17 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session examines percutaneous mitral balloon commissurotomy applied in unusual and challenging scenarios. It covers advanced techniques such as wire-guided Inoue balloon valvuloplasty post annuloplasty, strategies for severe mitral calcification, and innovative simplifications of established methods, emphasizing the ongoing relevance of this procedure in complex mitral...
Challenging mitral TEER: overcoming access limitations and anatomical challenges
16 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session delves into the challenges of mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER), focusing on complex cases such as denied access, patch dehiscence-induced regurgitation, and functional mitral regurgitation due to amyloid cardiomyopathy. It also highlights innovative imaging approaches, including the use of transthoracic echocardiography as a rescue...
