Mitral valve replacement and repair

Find all the latest content on mitral valve replacement and repair published on this website.

Building on the years of experience with TAVI, mitral valve replacement and repair is now beginning to take-off with a vast array of new techniques and options. Certain devices, for instance in mitral repair, are now widely used. To understand this complex field a knowledge and mastery is required covering the latest research, emerging tools, devices and techniques, vascular access; the role of adjunctive pharmacotherapy; imaging techniques such as echocardiography as well as understanding bleeding risks or patient selection.

A patient with multivalvular disease: which approach?

05 Apr 2022

An 81-year-old lady with past history of surgical aortic valve replacement followed by implantation of dual-chamber permanent pacemaker was admitted for recurrent episodes of right heart decompensations. The echocardiographic evaluation revealed massive TR and moderate primary MR due to a retracted posterior leaflet. What would be...

Iatrogenic atrial septal defects following transcatheter mitral valve repair and implications of interventional closures

21 Dec 2021

The authors investigated whether iatrogenic atrial septal defect closure post-transcatheter mitral valve edge-to-edge repair is superior to conservative therapy, and whether outcomes (death/heart failure hospitalization) differ between patients with and without an iASD post-TMVR.
