Dysphagia: A Novel Risk Factor for Poor Outcomes Following Cardiovascular Procedures
Background Dysphagia, an increasingly recognized clinical marker of frailty, is prevalent among older adults yet its impact on cardiovascular postprocedural outcomes remains undetermined. This study evaluated the association between dysphagia and adverse

Patient Risk–Benefit Preferences for Transcatheter Versus Surgical Mitral Valve Repair
Background Transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (TEER) of mitral regurgitation is less invasive than surgery but has greater 5‐year mortality and reintervention risks, and leads to smaller improvements in physical functioning.

Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair is an alternative therapy for patients with severe mitral regurgitation. Here, we report the first case of right ventricular apical thrombus formation following transcatheter edge-to-edge repair in a 54-year-old male ...

Barlow’s Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair in Mitral Annular Calcification
Objective: The presence of Barlow’s and mitral annular calcification poses significant challenges in mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER). Our case involved a patient with both pathologies who underwent successful 3-dimensional intracardiac ...

Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Mitral Valve Repair in a Patient With Anderson-Fabry Disease
Severe degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) is one cardiac manifestation of the multiorgan metabolic enzyme disorder Anderson-Fabry Disease (AFD). Although DMR is normally managed surgically, many patients with AFD are unsuitable for this.

Background Prognostically meaningful tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is not well‐defined in the mitral transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair arena. We aimed to explore the prevalence, correlates, and consequences of TR grades and postprocedural trends in this ...

Technologies in minimally invasive treatment of severe mitral regurgitation
Mitral valve regurgitation is the second most common valve defect in Europe among adults. Primary mitral regurgitation (MR) results from structural abnormalities of the valve apparatus (e.g., leaflet prolapse, chordae rupture), often due to myxomatous ...
