Emergent Transcatheter Tricuspid Edge-to-Edge Repair for Right Ventricular Shock From Tricuspid Regurgitation in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Transcatheter tricuspid edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) is an emerging technology used to treat severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR). The pivotal trials demonstrating the safety and efficacy of T-TEER exclude patients with severely reduced left ventricular function (≤20%).

Case summary

We demonstrate the use of T-TEER in a patient with end-stage hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who suffered acute, torrential TR and subsequently developed cardiogenic shock as a complication of high-risk transvenous lead extraction.

Why beyond the guidelines

Currently, there are no guidelines addressing the nonsurgical emergent management of acute TR.

Discussion

The TriClip system (Abbott) may have certain advantages when used in managing acute primary TR compared with other va
