Abstract

Many novel percutaneous interventions are being developed for application in the tricuspid valve position. At the present time, there are no commercially available devices for this application. There has been mounting evidence supporting the safety and efficacy of using the MitraClip system on the tricuspid valve. This review summarizes the peer reviewed data available to date supporting this procedure, outlines the step-by-step maneuvers using the MitraClip system for this application, and imaging techniques used prior to and during the procedure.

Keywords: MitraClip; transcatheter tricuspid valve repair; tricuspid regurgitation.
