Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement for Residual Tricuspid Regurgitation After TEER

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Residual or recurrent tricuspid regurgitation (TR) after prior transcatheter tricuspid edge‐to‐edge (T‐TEER) repair occurs in about 12% of patients within 1 year. Since surgical tricuspid valve repair or replacement is of high risk, treatment options remain scarce.

Successful Percutaneous Retrieval of an Embolized MitraClip From the Right Subclavian Artery

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Single leaflet device attachment (SLDA) after mitral transcatheter valve edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) has been reported in up to 5% of patients. However, complete embolization of the M‐TEER device is exceedingly rare. Device retrievals in all previously reported cases were completed by vascular surgery cut down at the end. In this case, we are
