Abstract

In the realm of innovative medical procedures, TEER (transcatheter edge-to-edge repair) has emerged as a promising field, showcasing significant growth and advancements. Mitral TEER has been performed for the last two decades; in contrast, tricuspid TEER is newer, with long-term outcomes pending. This article aims to provide a comprehensive review of the current literature, with a primary focus on outcomes and potential complications associated with both procedures. Both procedures carry a low risk of complications when done by experienced providers. A team approach involving specialists in cardiology, cardiothoracic surgery, cardiac imaging and heart failure ensures comprehensive care. A unified approach encompassing preprocedural workup, risk assessment, and standardised care throughout the procedure and recovery contributes to successful outcomes.
