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.

Hemobilia is a relatively uncommon but important cause of gastrointestinal bleeding. It occurs due to abnormal communications between the biliary system and surrounding vasculature, often caused by surgical interventions, trauma, infections, or malignancies. The rise of advanced hepato-pancreato-biliary techniques, including radiofrequency ablation and transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement, necessitates careful evaluation for the potential presence of hemobilia during the post-procedural period of these patients.

Step-by-Step Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement Using the LuX-Valve Plus System.

JACC Case Rep

November 2024

Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine and Therapeutics, Prince of Wales Hospital, Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China.

The LuX-Valve Plus is a novel radial force-independent orthotopic transjugular transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement device proven to be effective in TR reduction. We describe preprocedural assessment for eligibility and procedural planning by means of computed tomography as well as procedural steps of device implantation under multimodality imaging guidance including transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), intracardiac echocardiography (ICE), and fluoroscopy: steering into the right ventricle, leaflet capture by graspers, fine valve adjustment, and septal anchor deployment. Potential pitfalls are avoided by achieving optimal alignment by means of TEE multiplanar reconstruction to steer the delivery system, and using mid-esophageal and deep gastric views of 3-dimensional TEE and supplementary ICE to visualize the graspers for leaflet capture, especially when TEE imaging is technically challenging.
