- Description
- Transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVr) has emerged as a safe and effective alternative to conventional surgery in patients with primary and secondary mitral regurgitation, especially those at high surgical risk. This review summarises alternative indications for TMVr outside of the traditional criteria derived from the major randomised trials and focusses on less common mitral valve anatomies such as commissural prolapse and bileaflet prolapse, patients with mitral annuloplasty rings, as well as acutely unwell patients with papillary muscle rupture and/or cardiogenic shock. Specific technical challenges involved in treating such patient groups are summarised and described.
