Mitral Annuloplasty with a Cardioband Device: Effective in Functional Mitral Regurgitation

Both surgical and medical treatment options for functional mitral regurgitation are limited. The Cardioband system (Valtech Cardio, OrYehuda, Israel) is a new transvenous, transseptal direct mitral annuloplasty device. This work studied the safety and efficacy of this new device 6 months after implantation.   Thirty-one patients with moderate to severe mitral regurgitation associated with severe impairment of the left systolic ventricular...

Pre-TAVI Mitral Regurgitation Is Associated with Higher Mortality

Courtesy of Dr. Carlos Fava.   This study sought to analyze the clinical impact and the level of improvement of mitral regurgitation (MR) in patients who receive a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), and to find potential candidates for double valve repair with percutaneous techniques.   Of 1.110 patients included, 177 (15.9%) suffered from severe pre-TAVR mitral...
