Abstract: | Transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair is an approach for treating mitral regurgitation, which is an alternative for surgery in patients with a high surgical risk. Although the safety and efficacy of the technique have been demonstrated, it is still associated with potentially life-threatening complications. The aim of this paper is to discuss the nature, management, and prevention of the most important procedural complications associated with this procedure. |
