This is a 🧵all about Transcatheter Mitral Valve Implantation (TMVI). If you don't know a lot about this and want to learn more - read on! This is a summary of a great expert focus session

#EACTS2021

1st TAVI was done 10 years before 1st TMVI

TAVI has revolutionised treatment of aortic stenosis; TMVI is further behind largely due to anaromical complexity of treating the MV compared to the AV - the AV valves are much more complex than the semilunar valves!
