Abstract

Primary mitral regurgitation is a valvular heart disorder that found to be treated with surgery that has been the gold standard for decades with different techniques to approach this pathology. In the last decade, Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair emerged as a valid option for this type of pathology, in case of surgical unsuitability. Others device emerged as well leaving less remark compared with Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair. The article analyse the old and new frontiers as well as the controversies of this phenotype.
