Key result
The Edge to Edge technique for mitral regurgitation repair was investigated to determine its long-term clinical outcomes and durability.
Why the study?
The Edge to Edge technique is simple and feasible for mitral regurgitation repair, but its long-term durability remains a major concern.
Does the Edge to Edge technique provide long-term durability for repair of mitral regurgitation?
Does the Edge to Edge technique provide long-term durability for repair of mitral regurgitation?
This study aims to evaluate the long-term durability and outcomes of the edge-to-edge technique for mitral valve repair.
Long-term edge-to-edge mitral repair data are hypothesis-generating; randomized trials needed to confirm durability.
Objective: The “Edge to Edge technique” (E to E) is a simple and feasible technique for repair of mitral regurgitation (MR). The durability is a major concern in “E to E”. The aim of this study was to assess the long-term outcome and durability of this technique.
