Abstract

Mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) is an established treatment option for patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) at high risk for surgery. However, the rate of recurrent MR ≥ 3+ after M-TEER may be up to 10% at 1 year. As the volume of M-TEER procedures increases, the number of patients experiencing recurrent MR post-TEER is also rising. M-TEER reshapes valve anatomy and complicates further treatment strategies for MR. In this review, the authors provide practical management considerations for patients with residual or recurrent MR after M-TEER.
