N2 - AIMS: Parachute® implantation (PI) is an attractive treatment option for patients with left ventricular apical aneurysms (LVAA). So far, only the retrograde approach has been approved for PI. Unfortunately, severe functional mitral regurgitation (MR) restricts PI. Thus, we were intrigued to combine PI and MitraClip therapy (MCT) as a new transvenous hybrid concept.METHODS AND RESULTS: PI was performed via a transseptally placed MitraClip guide in six consecutive patients (age 73.8±5.2; 66% male). Immediately after PI, MR was treated by MCT. Invasive right and left heart haemodynamics were taken before and after PI and MCT, respectively. Procedural success was 100%. PI induced a numerical increase in cardiac output (CO: +36.4; p=0.15) and stroke volume (SV: +30.1%; p=0.09), despite some evidence of MR aggravation. Subsequent MCT successfully reduced MR at least to mild in five patients and to moderate in one patient. SV and CO demonstrated a further increase (SV: +44.3%, p=0.03; CO: +44.5%; p=0.03).CONCLUSIONS: The study documents for the first time the feasibility of transseptal and transmitral PI. Nevertheless, pre-procedural MR seems to counteract the beneficial effects of PI. Hence, the combined transseptal approach of PI and MCT seems to be the appropriate strategy in patients with significant MR and LVAA.
