What are the key considerations when managing combined mitral and tricuspid regurgitation?
17 Feb 2026 – From PCR London Valves 2025
Fabien Praz and Neil Fam talk about the management of patients with combined mitral and tricuspid regurgitation, who are often elderly with heart failure and multiple comorbidities. Careful assessment—including echocardiography, hemodynamics, and sometimes CT—is crucial to identify the dominant lesion. Surgery is preferred if feasible, but...
One-year results from the ADALA trial

Is iatrogenic atrial septum defect closure a necessary procedure?
17 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
Philipp Lurz and Saibal Kar discuss iatrogenic atrial septal defects from transseptal procedures. Small ones usually close on their own, while large defects causing significant shunting need closure to prevent right heart overload. Some moderate defects may be beneficial by decompressing the left atrium, so closure...
