  • First clinical application of the novel X-Clip transcatheter edge-to-edge repair system for treating severe functional mitral regurgitation

    For patients with moderate-to-severe functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) who continue to experience heart failure symptoms despite optimized medical and device therapy, transcatheter mitral valve edge-to-edge repair (TEER) is increasingly becoming a reliable treatment option. With the continuous research and development and improvement of TEER-related devices, there are currently dozens of domestically developed TEER devices undergoing clinical trials in China. In this study, we report the first case of a patient with severe FMR treated with the X-Clip® TEER system. The patient, a 60-year-old male, suffered FMR attributed to dilated cardiomyopathy. Preoperative transthoracic echocardiography showed severe mitral regurgitation (4+). He underwent percutaneous repair using the X-Clip® system, and immediate postoperative ultrasound showed a reduction in mitral regurgitation to trace. At the 1-month follow-up, the patient’s symptoms and New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class had improved, and a follow-up transthoracic echocardiogram showed trace mitral regurgitation (1+).
