First performance of transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral and tricuspid valve repair in a single procedure in Latin America: case report

Abstract

We present the first case in Latin America of transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral and tricuspid valve repair in a single procedure, in a patient at high risk for surgery. The patient progressed to heart failure and limitation in her daily living activities when she was submitted to transcatheter mitral and tricuspid valve repair. Six months later, she was asymptomatic and performing her daily living activities. We discuss the most updated recommendations for transcatheter repair when both valvar conditions coexist, and show the knowledge gaps.
