This session addresses complications encountered during transcatheter mitral valve edge-to-edge repair (TEER), focusing on their identification, management, and prevention. Through case studies and interactive discussions, participants gain insights into optimizing case selection and implementing effective bailout strategies to ensure procedural safety.

Focused on advanced transcatheter leaflet modification techniques, this session explores indications and patient selection for TAV-in-SAV cases in Asian populations. It details the concepts, procedural setup, and material preparation for transcatheter electrosurgery, with in-depth coverage of BASILICA and UNICORN techniques, including step-by-step guidance, recorded cases, troubleshooting,...

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.

Although TAVI is an accepted alternative to surgery in patients with severe aortic stenosis who are at high surgical risk, less is known about long-term comparative outcomes among patients with aortic stenosis who are at intermediate surgical risk. P. Redaelli & M. Pighi review the SURTAVI trial...
