Prognosis of persistent mitral regurgitation in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement

ConclusionUnresolved severe MR is a critical determinant of long term mortality following TAVR. Persistence of severe MR following TAVR can be predicted using selected parameters derived from TTE-imaging. These data call for close follow up and additional mitral valve treatment in this subgroup.Graphic abstractFactors associated with MR persistence or regression after TAVR
