Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Surgery
  • Interventional Cardiology
  • Medical Devices

Background:

  • Residual and recurrent mitral regurgitation (MR) post-transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) presents significant therapeutic challenges.
  • Existing treatment options for severe MR after TEER are limited, necessitating novel approaches.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a simplified, transapical electrosurgical laceration and stabilization of clip (ELASC) procedure.
  • To demonstrate the feasibility of ELASC as a direct approach for mitral valve leaflet modification.
  • To enable transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) in patients with recurrent MR post-TEER.

Main Methods:

  • A novel transapical electrosurgical technique was developed for precise laceration and stabilization of mitral valve leaflets.
  • The procedure was performed in a patient experiencing recurrent MR after prior TEER.
  • Successful TMVR was subsequently performed following the ELASC procedure.

Main Results:

  • The simplified transapical ELASC procedure was successfully performed.
  • The technique allowed for effective modification of mitral valve leaflets.
  • The patient subsequently underwent successful TMVR, addressing the recurrent MR.

Conclusions:

  • The described transapical ELASC procedure offers a simplified and direct alternative for managing challenging cases of recurrent MR post-TEER.
  • This approach facilitates subsequent TMVR, expanding treatment options for patients with complex mitral valve disease.
