The device is positioned directly above the regurgitant jet and advanced across the mitral valve into the LV, with the two arms of the Clip perpendicular to the valve leaflets.

CTA head and neck did not show any large vessel vasculitis. Transthoracic echocardiography showed thickening of the mitral valve (MV) leaflets, with moderate MR and an elevated MV gradient of 11 mm Hg ...

With the increasing prevalence of transcatheter mitral valve-in-valve interventions (V-in-V), a detailed understanding of the surgical valves (SV) is of paramount importance. Left ventricular outflow ...

A rare form of endocardial cushion defect is an atrioventricular (AV) canal-type ventricular septal defect with cleft mitral ... of the anterior leaflet of the mitral valve to the interventricular ...

These are the inlet valves to the two ventricles, the mitral valve on the left side and the tricuspid valve on the right.

MR ≤2+ at 5 years on core-lab assessment (n = 103): 94.7% vs. 91.3%. Unplanned mitral valve intervention or surgery: 4.5% vs. 52.0% (crossover to MitraClip in GDMT only arm: 48.7%); LVAD or heart ...
