Key result
Transcatheter mitral valve repair techniques provide less invasive treatment options to address the unmet clinical need of untreated patients with mitral regurgitation.
This review provides an overview of currently available transcatheter mitral repair options and the clinical evidence for treating mitral regurgitation.
May broaden options for untreated mitral regurgitation; leaves open comparative efficacy from randomized device trials.
Over the past decade, different transcatheter repair techniques have been developed to treat mitral regurgitation (MR) with less invasive approaches in order to address the unmet clinical need of untreated patients with MR. The aim of this report is to provide an overview of the currently available transcatheter mitral repair options, focusing on the evidence reported so far.
