A systematic approach for transcatheter mitral valve edge‐to‐edge repair of isolated commissure prolapse

Abstract

AbstractAlthough transcatheter mitral valve edge‐to‐edge repair (TEER) has been widely used for non‐central degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR), few reports have described therapeutic strategies for commissure prolapse. Furthermore, no standard approach for TEER for commissure has established. Thus, we categorized various grasping strategies into three patterns, and proposed a promising systematic strategy to observe three possible grasping patterns for identifying appropriate grasping target. Here, we report a successful TEER case of isolated posterior commissure prolapse in which we used a systematic approach.
