Early Experience With Evoque Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement in Carcinoid Heart Disease

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is nearly universal in carcinoid heart disease (CHD), but surgical replacement carries significant risk, and CHD was excluded from the landmark TRISCEND II trial. We present seven patients with CHD undergoing Evoque transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) at two tertiary centers.

Double Transeptal Puncture for SAPIEN M3 Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement: Initial Experience, Indications, and Technique

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The SAPIEN M3 system has been recently approved for transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR). The transeptal guide sheath is used to deploy the dock, which is completely released before inserting and deploying the M3 valve using the same femoral access, transeptal puncture (TSP) and guide sheath.
