Reintervention is commonly required postsurgical mitral valve replacement (SMVR) or repair due to bioprosthetic valve and annuloplasty ring degeneration. However, redo SMVR is associated with a high risk of morbidity and mortality. Postsurgical transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) is a safe and less-invasive alternative that has repeatedly been shown to be associated with improved survival and lower rates of complications compared with redo SMVR. Comprehensive patient evaluation and thorough procedural planning are key to successful TMVR. Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
