This consensus document provides expert recommendations for the periprocedural management, anticoagulation strategies, and long-term follow-up of patients undergoing transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement.
Cite This Study
Hausleiter et al. (2024) conducted a review in Severe tricuspid regurgitation with complex valve morphology. Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) was evaluated. Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement effectively reduces severe tricuspid regurgitation and induces reverse right ventricular remodeling, despite risks of conduction and bleeding complications.
