Transesophageal echocardiography in robot-assisted mitral valve repair for Barlow’s disease: usefulness for predicting artificial ring size and artificial chordae length using the loop technique

JA Clinical Reports, 2020
Background There is no fully recommended methodology for surgery for Barlow’s disease. Various methods have been proposed. The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) measurements for selecting the

Cardiac implantable electronic device carriers undergoing transcatheter tricuspid valve annuloplasty: real-world insights

Clinical Research in Cardiology
Abstract Background Transtricuspid cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) complicate the management of tricuspid regurgitation (TR). Transcatheter tricuspid valve annuloplasty (TTVA) offers a promising approach due to minimal interaction with leaflets and transvalvular CIEDs, though real-world evidence is ...
