Surgical antegrade transcatheter mitral valve implantation for symptomatic mitral valve disease and heavily calcified annulus. [PDF]
Surgical techniques for the treatment of mitral valve disease (MVD) have continuously evolved; however, anatomical details like severe annular calcification remain challenging and require sophisticated surgical strategies. Among patients with symptomatic

Outcomes after Transcatheter Mitral Valve Implantation: A Literature Review [PDF]
Mitral valve disease is the most common heart valve disease worldwide. Surgical mitral valve replacement or repair has been an established therapy in patients with severe mitral valve disease for many years. On the other hand, many patients with advanced

Transcatheter mitral valve repair and replacement
Mitral regurgitation is the valvular heart disease with the highest prevalence in the Western countries, and its prevalence increases with age.1 Conventional surgery provides excellent results in the younger population free of comorbidities, but up to 50% of the patients with severe mitral ...

Transesophageal Echocardiography for Mitral Valve Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair
Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) has emerged as a viable treatment option for patients with degenerative or functional severe mitral regurgitation (MR) who are at high risk for mitral valve surgery but have mitral valve anatomy suitable for TEER.

Association of Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair Availability With Outcomes of Mitral Valve Surgery [PDF]
Background Transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVr) is currently offered at selected centers that meet certain operator and institutional requirements. We sought to explore the hypothesis that the availability of TMVr is associated with improved outcomes of MV surgery. Methods and Results

Transcatheter mitral valve implantation (TMVI) using the Edwards FORTIS device. [PDF]
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has demonstrated the feasibility of treating valvular heart disease with transcatheter therapy. On the back of this success, various transcatheter concepts are being evaluated to treat other valvular disease,
