Current Status and Future Prospects of Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement: JACC State-of-the-Art Review
A Alperi , JF Granada , M Bernier et al.

KEYWORDS
mitral regurgitation; TMVR; limitations

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most prevalent valvular heart disease and, when left untreated, it confers a poorer prognosis. Catheter-based repair therapies face some limitations like their applicability on challenging anatomies and the potential recurrence of significant MR over time. Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) has emerged as a less invasive approach potentially overcoming some of the current limitations associated with transcatheter mitral valve repair. Several devices are under clinical investigation, and a growing number of systems allow for a fully percutaneous transfemoral approach. In this review, the authors aimed to delineate the main challenges faced by the TMVR field, to highlight the key aspects for procedural planning, and to describe the clinical results of the TMVR systems under clinical investigation. Finally, they also discuss what the future perspectives are for this emerging field.
