Abstract
Mitral valve dysfunction is prevalent amongst older patients. Of those not suitable for surgical therapy, mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) can treat as large proportion of patients, many are not suitable TEER candidates. As such, orthotopic transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) is an important innovation but it faces significant challenges. Orthotopic TMVR requires a prosthesis with stable anchoring, adequate sealing, minimal footprint in the left ventricle and long term durability. Multidisciplinary expertise in advanced imaging, surgery, heart failure are needed for success.

CARDIOVASCULAR REVASCULARIZATION MEDICINE 2024:S1553-8389(24)00098-8.

Abstract
Transcatheter heart valve (THV) procedures require careful planning and consideration to prevent coronary artery obstruction (CAO), which poses a significant and potentially life-threatening condition, especially in patients undergoing valve-in-valve (ViV) transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Despite identifying predictors of CAO and utilization of computed tomography and inputting THV features, a significant uncertainty remains in predicting CAO. The ShortCut™ device (Pi-Cardia, Rehovot, Israel) was purposefully designed to modify the leaflets in patients undergoing TAVR, especially prior to ViV procedures, to overcome the risk for CAO. This review aims to detail the device's objectives, structure, procedural steps, the available clinical data, and future directions for its intended utilization in the structural arena for the prevention of CAO.

Abstract
Mitral annular calcium (MAC) with severe mitral valvular dysfunction presents a complex problem, as valve replacement, either surgical or transcatheter, is challenging because of anatomy, technical considerations, concomitant comorbidities, and advanced age. The authors review the clinical and anatomical features of MAC that are favorable (green light), challenging (yellow light), or prohibitive (red light) for surgical or transcatheter mitral valve interventions. Under the auspices of the Heart Valve Collaboratory, an expert working group of cardiac surgeons, interventional cardiologists, and interventional imaging cardiologists was formed to develop recommendations regarding treatment options for patients with MAC as well as a proposed grading and staging system using both anatomical and clinical features.

Abstract
Mitral regurgitation is the second-most frequent valvular heart disease in Europe and it is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Recognition of MR should encourage the assessment of its etiology, severity, and mechanism in order to determine the best therapeutic approach. Mitral valve surgery constitutes the first-line therapy; however, transcatheter procedures have emerged as an alternative option to treat inoperable and high-risk surgical patients. In patients with suitable anatomy, the transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral leaflet repair is the most frequently applied procedure. In non-reparable patients, transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) has appeared as a promising intervention. Thus, currently TMVR represents a new treatment option for inoperable or high-risk patients with degenerated or failed bioprosthetic valves (valve-in-valve); failed repairs, (valve-in-ring); inoperable or high-risk patients with native mitral valve anatomy, or those with severe annular calcifications, or valve-in-mitral annular calcification. The patient selection requires multimodality imaging pre-procedural planning to select the best approach and device, study the anatomical landing zone and assess the risk of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. In the present review, we aimed to highlight the main considerations for TMVR planning from an imaging perspective; before, during, and after TMVR.
