BCH Lecture: Latest treatments for heart valve problems 1/5/23
- Category: Cardiology
People with mild heart valve problems often live long, full lives and never require treatment. But once a diseased valve begins to affect your heart’s ability to pump blood, you may need a valve repair or replacement.
Hear Dr. Srini Iyengar, BCH’s structural heart program director, describe the types of heart valve disorders and their potential complications. He’ll then explain the latest treatment options for mitral and aortic valve disease, with a special focus on minimally invasive endovascular procedures such as TAVR and MitraClip® Therapy.
