Key result
Staged Cardioband followed by MitraClip XTR reduces torrential TR to mild-moderate in a case report.
Why the study?
Does staged transcatheter valve repair with Cardioband and MitraClip XTR reduce tricuspid regurgitation in patients with severe TR and large coaptation gap?
Case Report (n=1)
Does staged transcatheter valve repair with Cardioband and MitraClip XTR reduce tricuspid regurgitation in patients with severe TR and large coaptation gap?
Staged annuloplasty and leaflet plication using Cardioband and MitraClip XTR may be an effective treatment option for patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation and a large coaptation gap.

May support staged Cardioband-MitraClip for severe TR with large gap; hypothesis-generating pending prospective trials.
Sugiura et al. (2018) conducted a case report in Tricuspid regurgitation (n=1). Staged transcatheter valve repair via Cardioband and MitraClip XTR was evaluated on Reduction in tricuspid regurgitation and coaptation gap. Staged transcatheter valve repair using Cardioband followed by MitraClip XTR successfully reduced torrential tricuspid regurgitation to mild-moderate with total restoration of coaptation.
