Project description:This review outlines the first trial experience with transcatheter therapy for mitral regurgitation (MR), developed from the EVEREST II MitraClip trial in a trial population comprised predominantly of patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR). Subsequent experience with MitraClip and several other devices has been mostly in functional MR patients. At the same time, there has been ongoing experience with MitraClip in DMR, and a variety of other devices have been developed for catheter-based treatment of MR. Annuloplasty devices have been indicated for DMR, and the potential for transcatheter annuloplasty to be used, in conjunction with other catheter techniques, such as chordal replacement, as it is in standard mitral repair, is developing. Transcatheter mitral valve replacement will clearly have some role for MR of both functional and degenerative etiologies, when repair is not feasible or fails. This review will discuss the evidence base and future development of these mitral repair and replacement approaches for DMR.

Project description:Patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) might have an associated significant MR that can potentially lead to left ventricular (LV) failure after procedure. Considering the specific alterations in the mitral valve in TAVR scenario and the widespread use of TAVR in recent years, it appears important to know and understand the anatomical, functional and clinical implications to develop adequate strategies for the future. Patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) have been generally excluded from randomized clinical trials, making poor the impact that associated MR can have on clinical outcomes after TAVR. Several factors must be considered whose presence influences the severity of MR. For example, the elevated prevalence of coronary disease with consequent ischemic MR may account for LV dilation observed at the end stage of aortic stenosis. Evidence randomized studies and registries suggests that the rate of concomitant moderate-to-severe MR in patients undergoing TAVR oscillates between 2% and 33%, and patients with moderate to severe MR may have hemodynamic frailty with clinical deterioration during mechanical intervention. Short- and long-term outcomes, including cardiac mortality, appear to be influenced by the existence of preoperative moderate-to-severe MR or by the postprocedural worsening of mild MR, generally due to adverse LV remodeling. The incidence and the prognostic effect of concomitant MR in patients undergoing TAVR requires specific attention as might trigger adjunctive strategy treatment which should be carefully evaluated in clinical trials.KeywordsMitral regurgitation (MR); mitral valve; transcatheter aortic valve; transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)

Project description:Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most prevalent valvular heart disease globally. Mitral valve surgery is the gold-standard treatment for MR. However, a significant portion of patients with mitral valve disease are at high or prohibitive surgical risk. Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) has emerged as a potential treatment option for this vulnerable population. Numerous TMVR devices are currently being investigated, with early data demonstrating feasibility and efficacy of TMVR. In this article, we explore the unique challenges of designing a TMVR system and describe the TMVR systems under clinical evaluation.

Project description:We describe the case of a 57-year-old man who had severe mitral valve stenosis and regurgitation without significant annular calcification. He was not a candidate for surgical valve replacement or repair because of his substantial comorbid conditions, overall frailty, and elevated surgical risk. He underwent successful transcatheter mitral valve replacement of his native mitral valve with compassionate, off-label use of an Edwards Sapien 3 valve. A search of the literature produced no other cases like ours, which represents a further evolution of the transcatheter valve implantation concept. Further studies are needed to help define accurate valve sizing, intraprocedural positioning, and long-term device stability, as well as to determine which patients might benefit from this commercially available valve. In the meantime, our findings could present a means of treating patients who have no other options.

Project description:Over the past decade, several transcatheter devices have been developed to address the treatment of severe mitral regurgitation (MR) in patients at high surgical risk, mainly aimed at repairing the native mitral valve (MV). MV repair devices have recently been shown to have high efficacy and safety. However, to replicate promising trial results, specific anatomical and pathophysiological criteria have to be met and operators need a high level of experience. As yet, the longer-term durability of transcatheter MV repair remains unknown. Transcatheter MV replacement (TMVR) might be a treatment option able to target various anatomies, reliably abolish MR, and foster ease of use with a standardised implantation protocol. This review presents upcoming TMVR devices and available data and discusses how TMVR might further advance the field of transcatheter treatment of MR.

Project description:What the article teaches Transcatheter heart valve thrombosis in the mitral position causes increased valve gradients, valve dysfunction, and symptoms, and may be associated with lack of therapeutic anticoagulation. How it will impact practice Anticoagulation with a vitamin K antagonist should be considered in all patients undergoing transcatheter mitral valve replacement. What new research/study would help answer the question posed Efficacy, optimal duration, and safety of anticoagulation therapy, balancing reduced thrombosis against increased bleeding risk, needs to be assessed in larger cohort studies and prospective trials.

Project description:Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) is a rapidly evolving treatment for mitral regurgitation. As with transcatheter aortic valve replacement, multidetector computed tomography analysis plays a central role in defining the candidacy, device selection and safety for TMVR procedures. This contemporary review will describe in detail the multidetector computed tomography data collection, analysis, and planning for TMVR procedures in patients with native mitral regurgitation as well as in those with failed surgical prosthetic mitral valve replacement or surgical mitral valve repair.
