Abstract
Purpose of review: Patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) are at risk for significant morbidity and mortality. Transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions (TTVI) may offer patients less invasive treatment alternatives to surgery. This review evaluates the most common class of device currently used worldwide to treat TR, tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) and orthotopic transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR), both of which are now approved in the USA and Europe.
Recent findings: The first pivotal randomized clinical trial, TRILUMINATE, demonstrated that T-TEER can safely reduce TR and is associated with improved health status outcomes. However, results of this trial have raised questions about whether this device can provide sufficient TR reduction to impact clinical outcomes. Orthotopic TTVR has recently gained attention with initial data suggesting near-complete TR elimination. The current review examines the technical features and anatomic limitations of the most commonly used devices for T-TEER and orthotopic TTVR, discusses the current clinical data for these devices, and offers a theoretical construct for device selection.
期刊介绍:
The aim of this journal is to provide timely perspectives from experts on current advances in cardiovascular medicine. We also seek to provide reviews that highlight the most important recently published papers selected from the wealth of available cardiovascular literature.
We accomplish this aim by appointing key authorities in major subject areas across the discipline. Section editors select topics to be reviewed by leading experts who emphasize recent developments and highlight important papers published over the past year. An Editorial Board of internationally diverse members suggests topics of special interest to their country/region and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. We also provide commentaries from well-known figures in the field.
