Prevention of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in transapical mitral valve replacement: the MitraCut procedure
The MitraCut procedure was effective and reproducible for preventing potential LVOT obstruction in TA-TMVR patients during its initial exploration in 6 European hospitals. Considerations regarding the scissors' characteristics, their handling and cut length are mandatory for safe performance of the procedure.
