Abstract:
Mitral regurgitation is the most prevalent yet undertreated valvulopathy despite its adverse prognosis. With the emergence of transcatheter mitral interventions, the potential for this huge unmet disease burden to be addressed may finally be realized. Medtronic Intrepid™ Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement System represents one of several novel solutions. Based on early data from the pilot study, its efficacy and clinical utility is currently being tested against the mainstay treatment of surgical mitral valve replacement in a randomized trial. While there remain significant challenges before transcatheter mitral intervention can become part of the routine treatment algorithm, the authors are optimistic that transcatheter mitral valve repair and intervention have the potential in revolutionizing the management of severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation.

Heart Valves
The AV valves prevent the backflow of blood from the ventricles to the atria during ventricular contraction. These valves function with the assistance of the chordae tendineae and papillary muscles. When the ventricles are relaxed, the chordae tendineae are slack, allowing blood to flow from the atria into the...
