Key result
A simplified, transapical electrosurgical laceration and stabilization of clip procedure successfully enabled transcatheter mitral valve replacement for recurrent mitral regurgitation.
Why the study?
Residual and recurrent mitral regurgitation after transcatheter edge-to-edge repair are therapeutically challenging.
Case Report (n=1)
A simplified transapical ELASTA-CLIP procedure provides a direct approach to facilitate transcatheter mitral valve replacement in patients with recurrent mitral regurgitation after prior edge-to-edge repair.
Residual and recurrent mitral regurgitation after transcatheter edge-to-edge repair are therapeutically challenging. In the present case report, we describe a simplified, transapical electrosurgical laceration and stabilization of clip procedure that represents an alternative and direct approach for electrosurgical laceration of mitral valve leaflets enabling transcatheter mitral valve replacement for recurrent mitral regurgitation after mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair.

Stolz et al. (2023) conducted a case report in Recurrent mitral regurgitation after transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (n=1). Simplified transapical electrosurgical laceration and stabilization of clip procedure (ELASTA-CLIP) was evaluated. A simplified, transapical electrosurgical laceration and stabilization of clip procedure successfully enabled transcatheter mitral valve replacement for recurrent mitral regurgitation.
