Abstract:
Recently, several transcatheter devices for aortic valve replacement and mitral valve repair have been used in clinic, and researchers have designed a variety of tricuspid valve (TV) intervention devices. We reviewed the current status of transcatheter TV intervention, and focused on the structures of these devices and the early results of clinical trials. Undoubtedly, transcatheter intervention for TV is promising, innovational and safe for patients with severe TV regurgitation.
