Transcatheter mitral valve repair, particularly edge-to-edge leaflet repair, is a well-
established alternative for patients with severe primary mitral regurgitation (MR) considered …

Up to 40% of patients with aortic stenosis (AS) harbor discordant Doppler-
echocardiographic findings, the most common of which is the presence of a small aortic …

Abstract Aims The Valve Academic Research Consortium (VARC), founded in 2010, was
intended to (i) identify appropriate clinical endpoints and (ii) standardize definitions of these …

Background: Few data exist on patients with low-flow, low-gradient aortic stenosis (LFLG-
AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Also, very scarce data exist …

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most prevalent valvular heart disease and, when left
untreated, it confers a poorer prognosis. Catheter-based repair therapies face some …

Background Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) has emerged as an alternative
therapeutic option for the treatment of severe mitral regurgitation in patients with prohibitive …

Mitral transcatheter therapies represent the treatment of choice for all patients deemed
unsuitable for cardiac surgery. So far, the largest clinical experience has been limited to …

Accumulating clinical experience and technological improvements have provided the basis
for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) to emerge as a well-established means for …

Background: Data on long-term outcomes after valve-in-valve (ViV) transcatheter aortic
valve replacement (TAVR) are scarce. The objective of this study was to determine the long …

The emergence of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has segued the
development of transcatheter mitral valve (MV) repair devices. Transcatheter mitral valve …
