Abstract:Tricuspid regurgitation is a common valve disease with high incidence and poor prognosis. For elderly patients and those with a history of open heart surgery, second thoracotomy and valve replacement carry a high risk. Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) has become an alternative treatment for patients with high surgical risk. LuX‐Valve is a novel self‐expandable valve that does not rely on radial force to anchor the valve annulus. The preliminary results have been satisfactory, and this technolog… Show more
