Why the study?
In patients with symptomatic mitral paravalvular leak, successful transcatheter reduction to less than mild improves short- and midterm survival, prompting the presentation of single-centre techniques and outcomes.
Transcatheter mitral paravalvular leak closure is a safe and effective procedure with high technical and clinical success rates for improving symptoms and severity of PVL.
