transcatheter mitral and tricuspid therapies. Transcatheter mitral (a) and tricuspid (b) valve intervention devices with reported clinical use (original image)
A MitraClip™ is a device for percutaneous mitral valve repair. It is a percutaneous edge-to-edge attachment system that mimics the surgical procedure. This technique creates a tissue bridge between the anterior and posterior leaflets employing one clip deployed through trans-septal catheterization.
It is sometimes offered for patients suffering from severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation where surgery may not be possible due to inherent risks and other comorbidities (particularly for the elderly with comorbidities ).
