Mitral valve replacement and repair

Latest mitral valve replacement and repair content in interventional cardiology - research, practice, and education

Building on the years of experience with TAVI, mitral valve replacement and repair (TMVR) 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...

Management of mitral regurgitation patients undergoing TMVI screening

13 Jan 2022

This study's results emphasise the strengths and limitations of transcatheter mitral valve implantation (TMVI) as a novel and promising therapy providing predictable elimination of MR in most patients, by S. Ludwig et al.

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.
