Comparative Efficacy and Safety of Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair Versus Mitral-valve Surgery in Elderly Patients With Mitral Regurgitation: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Mitral valve surgery is the reference treatment for severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation (MR). Percutaneous mitral valve interventions, such as the MitraClip procedure, offer an alternative, particularly for high-risk patients. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to analyze the safety and effectiveness of transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVR) compared to surgical mitral valve repair or replacement (SMVR) in elderly patients with mitral regurgitation.

Methods

We searched PubMed, Scopus, Ovid, EBSCO, and ProQuest through July 2024. Eligible studies were randomized controlled trials and observational comparative studies of TMVR versus SMVR for patients with MR, reporting outcomes such as all-cause mortality, MR recurrence, stroke, myocardial
