Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair (MitraClip) in Bangalore

MitraClip is a breakthrough, minimally invasive structural heart procedure designed to treat severe mitral regurgitation (a leaking mitral valve). Delivered through a thin tube inserted into a vein in the groin, the MitraClip device clips the two flaps of the mitral valve together, allowing it to close more tightly and reducing the backward flow of blood into the lungs.


Dr. Sreekanth Shetty specializes in advanced structural heart interventions, including catheter-based therapies for valvular disorders. His clinical focus centers on mapping complex valve anatomy using precise echocardiographic guidance to deliver optimal clip placement and restore normal cardiac hemodynamics.

When Is It Recommended?

MitraClip therapy is recommended for patients suffering from significant, symptomatic degenerative or functional mitral regurgitation who remain highly symptomatic despite optimal medical therapy, and who face excessively high risks for standard open mitral valve surgery.

Key Benefits

Minimally invasive, percutaneous approach

Repairs the valve without stopping the heart

Shorter hospital stays and quicker return to daily life

Lower risk of complications compared to open surgery

Reduces symptoms of heart failure and fluid backup
