May expand options for high-risk mitral regurgitation; leaves open efficacy and safety pending randomized trials.
This review outlines emerging percutaneous mitral valve repair techniques for patients with mitral regurgitation who are deemed high risk for traditional surgery.
Goldberg et al. (2010) conducted a review in Mitral regurgitation. Percutaneous mitral valve repair techniques was evaluated. Several less invasive techniques for percutaneous mitral valve repair, including the bow-tie configuration and coronary sinus devices, have been developed and are under clinical evaluation.
