Abstract

Abstract: Open heart transcatheter mitral valve implantation using the Edwards‐Sapien 3 for mitral annular calcification is a safe procedure, because surgeons do not have to decalcify. And also, surgeons can resect the anterior mitral leaflet to prevent left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and deploy the valve under direct visualization.
