“V” shaped split of the anterior mitral leaflet after LAMPOON before valve-in-ring

Clip/TEER day with @mhammadah combination of mitral & tricuspid cases, lead free @RAMPARTic happy staff what can go wrong? Ops.. we opened a MitraClip XTW for a TriClip case!! It is ok, put it on the back table use it to take a cool picture! I love the cathlab team @UnivHealthSA

Laceration of the Anterior Mitral Leaflet #LAMPOON and #TMVR Valve-in-Ring for mitral stenosis in patient with 2 previous heart surgeries. Electrosurgery and complex structural heart intervention things you only find at few leading valve programs in the country.

Transcatheter Repair versus Mitral-Valve Surgery for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation: @NEJM 🥸 MATTERHORN Trial: meaning of Matterhorn: a mountain of the Alps, straddling the main watershed and border between Italy and Switzerland... 😱 Creative names: Summary 👇👇👇

Transcatheter Valve Repair in Heart Failure with Moderate to Severe Mitral Regurgitation: @NEJM 🥸RESHAPE-HF2: Randomized Investigation of the MitraClip Device in Heart Failure: Second Trial in Patients with Clinically Significant Functional Mitral Regurgitation 😱 Summary 👇

RESHAPE-HF2 shows no impact on mortality but significant reduction in HFH and improvement in KCCQ. All call for a larger trial to confirm MTEER for lower risk and lower MR severity. #ESC2024

RHEIA Trial: women w/ severe AS, TAVI using SAPIEN 3/SAPIEN 3 Ultra superior to surgery for primary composite end point of death, stroke, or rehospitalization at one year: superiority driven by lower rate of rehospitalizations. #ESC2024 #ESCCongress2024 @escardio

Not the first 2 tricuspid valve clip cases @UTHealthSAValve @UnivHealthSA but the first using the newly approved #Triclip device. Superb outcomes! @mhammadah @drmomani @SouthTexasMed @ladybugs711 #TTEER

Valve-in-Valve #TAVR with complex BiBASILICA electrosurgery and bioprosthetic valve remodeling for optimal results in a failed 19 mm Trifecta, final mg of 12 mm Hg. A high-end procedure done is few intuitions nationwide, and only at @UTHealthSAValve @UnivHealthSA in South Texas.

Amazing tricuspid clip case by our valve team @mhammadah @drmomani @little_tx using 4D ICE. @UnivHealthSA @UTHealthSAValve @UTHealthcareSA

Can you explain what is going on here? What is the depth of this TAVR implant? Good or bad? @TAVRBot

Our team continues to be on the front line of bringing new innovations in valvular heart disease to South Texas @SouthTexasMed @UnivHealthSA @UTHealthcareSA. Our experts completed South Texas first Pascal implant used to repair mitral valve regurgitation without cardiac surgery.
