Illustration of the Twelve Intrepid transcatheter mitral valve replacement system (5) {Reprinted from EuroIntervention, Meredith et al. 12;Y78-80, Copyright [2016], with permission from Europa Digital & Publishing}. (A) The outer stent frame (arrow) facilitates fixation to the mitral valve annulus, and an atrial brim (arrowhead) allow valve placement under echocardiography; (B) the inner frame homes a 27-mm bovine pericardial valve (arrowhead); (C) the outer frame (arrow) has small cleats to facilitate valve anchoring.
