Incidence and Predictors of Cerebrovascular Accidents in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair with Mitraclip
Transcatheter mitral edge-to-edge repair (TEER) with transcatheter devices has become a mainstay in the minimally invasive treatment of patients with severe mitral regurgitation at increased surgical risk. Despite its apparently favorable risk profile, there is uncertainty on the risk and features of cerebrovascular accidents (CVA) early and long after TMVR. We aimed at appraising incidence and predictors of CVA in patients undergoing TEER.
