Background. Barlow’s disease (BD) of mitral valve (MV) is a frequent challenge for MV repair, both surgical and percutaneous. Objectives. The present study sought to evaluate the outcomes of Transcatheter Edge–to-Edge Repair (TEER) therapy with the Mitraclip system (Abbott Vascular, Menlo Park, CA, USA) in patients with BD. Methods. A multicenter retrospective study was performed for evaluating the post-procedural outcomes (at early term and at 3 years-follow up) in patients referred for Mitraclip with a diagnosis of BD, compared with those of patients with MV prolapse without BD (non-BD). Conclusions: TEER therapy in BD is feasible with a procedural success similar to the one obtained in non-BD but with more complex procedure, a lower durability of the procedural results and a trend towards more HF-hospitalization at follow up, without difference in mortality and MV-surgery. Further studies with longer follow-up, including patients treated with the new generation of the MitraClip and with annuloplasty devices, are needed. |
