Tricuspid Leaflet Gap-Reduction Maneuvers During Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Repair

Blog Article

Transcatheter tricuspid valve edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) has emerged as an option for treating patients with tricuspid regurgitation.Few studies have explored intraprocedural maneuvers to optimize leaflet-grasping Brooch T-TEER in order to improve technical success.This case series of 3 patients describes maneuvers that facilitated T-TEER in patients with large Scooters coaptation gaps or short leaflet lengths.
