Tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair versus surgery for tricuspid regurgitation: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Key Points

• T-TEER shows comparable safety and function in patients with tricuspid regurgitation, with early mortality rates similar to surgery.
• The analysis reports that both interventions have similar long-term outcomes and morbidity rates, indicating flexible treatment options.
• This systematic review leverages data from multiple studies to offer insights on the efficacy of tricuspid repair techniques.
• Findings suggest that T-TEER might provide a less invasive alternative to surgical repair while maintaining patient outcomes.
