Transcatheter Tricuspid Edge-to-Edge Repair is a viable option for severe Tricuspid Regurgitation

The Tri.Fr Randomized Clinical Trial evaluated the efficacy of Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair (T-TEER) + Optimized Medical Therapy (OMT) versus OMT alone in 300 patients with severe, symptomatic tricuspid regurgitation (TR) across 24 centers in France and Belgium. At 1-year follow-up, 74.1% of patients in the T-TEER group improved, compared to 40.6% in the OMT-alone group (P . T-TEER significantly reduced TR severity, improved NYHA class, patient global assessment (PGA), and Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) scores, and had a high procedural success rate (97.3%) with a low 30-day major adverse event rate (0.7%). The findings support T-TEER as an effective intervention for symptomatic severe TR, warranting long-term follow-up to assess mortality and hospitalization impact.
