  • Title: Hybrid Open Minimally Invasive Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement.
    Author: Marcus SG, Mahadevan VS, Deuse T.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2018 Aug; 106(2):e57-e59. PubMed ID: 29605597.
    Abstract:
    We describe a hybrid surgical interventional technique for minimally invasive implantation of a transcatheter aortic valve in the mitral position. This technique does not require circular mitral annular calcification and minimizes the risk of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. We believe this technique represents a useful approach for surgeons and interventional cardiologists until specialized transcatheter mitral valve devices become available.
