Key result
Transcatheter mitral valve implantation represents a promising patient-tailored approach for patients unsuitable for cardiac surgery, though current clinical data remains limited.
Why the study?
Current data regarding transcatheter mitral valve implantation remain limited with issues still to be addressed, despite its potential to broaden patient-tailored mitral therapies beyond repair techniques.

TMVI may enable tailored mitral therapies for surgical-ineligible patients; leaves open the need for robust prospective data before practice change.
This review highlights the current status, available devices, and future perspectives of transcatheter mitral valve implantation for patients ineligible for surgery.
Russo et al. (2021) conducted a review in Mitral valve pathology. Transcatheter mitral valve implantation was evaluated. Transcatheter mitral valve implantation represents a promising patient-tailored approach for patients unsuitable for cardiac surgery, though current clinical data remains limited.
