Transcatheter repair of tricuspid regurgitation with MitraClip.

Abstract

Transcatheter therapy with the MitraClip system (Abbott Structural, Menlo Park, CA) is the most commonly used transcatheter therapy for patients with tricuspid regurgitation, with over 1000 cases performed worldwide. The procedure is an off-label approach that requires meticulous attention to anatomical features obtained via comprehensive echocardiography and, in some cases, using cardiac computed tomography. Herein, we describe patient selection, procedural performance, and clinical outcomes of this therapy.
