Transjugular transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair in a patient with functional mitral regurgitation: a case report.

Eur Heart J Case Rep

January 2025

Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Sendai Kousei Hospital, 1-20 Tsutsumidori-amamiya, Aoba Ward, Sendai, Miyagi 9810914, Japan.

Article Synopsis
  • The transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (M-TEER) using the MitraClip system is usually done via the transfemoral approach, but the transjugular approach can be a viable alternative when the former isn't possible.
  • A 57-year-old man with heart failure and severe functional mitral regurgitation could not undergo the transfemoral approach due to an occluded inferior vena cava, leading to the decision to use the transjugular technique instead.
  • The procedure was successful with no complications, significantly reducing the patient's mitral regurgitation, and he showed sustained improvement a year later.

Purpose: Advancements in minimally invasive technologies to decrease postoperative morbidity and recovery times represent a large opportunity for mitral valve repair operations. However, current technologies are unable to replicate gold standard surgical neochord implantation.

Methods: We developed a novel neochordal repair device, Minimally Invasive Ventricular Anchoring Neochordoplasty (MIVAN), which operates via transcatheter, trans-septal anchoring to the posterior ventricular wall.

Atrial Secondary Tricuspid Regurgitation: Insights Into the EuroTR Registry.

JACC Cardiovasc Interv

December 2024

Medizinische Klinik und Poliklinik I, LMU Klinikum, LMU München, Munich, Germany; German Center for Cardiovascular Research, Partner Site Munich Heart Alliance, Munich, Germany. Electronic address:

Article Synopsis
  • Atrial secondary tricuspid regurgitation (A-STR) is a subtype of secondary tricuspid regurgitation (STR) that is often treated with transcatheter tricuspid valve edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER), showing distinct patient characteristics and treatment outcomes.
  • A study involving 641 patients revealed that 31% had A-STR, which was linked to better heart function, a higher presence of atrial fibrillation, and more effective TR reduction post-procedure compared to nonatrial STR patients.
  • A-STR patients experienced improved survival rates and lower symptomatic burdens after treatment; only 38% remained symptomatic (NYHA class ≥III) after 2 years, compared to 46

Background: The development of new trans-septal transcatheter interventions for patients with structural heart disease necessitates a precise and comprehensive understanding of the anatomy of the interatrial septum (IAS). The scarcity of gross anatomical studies has triggered our interest in exploring the morphometry and morphology of IAS.

Aims: To study the morphology, morphometry and variations of the interatrial septum in autopsied human hearts.
