ReValve Solutions, Inc., an innovator in the field of transcatheter structural heart replacement and repair, announced today it has successfully completed the first human use of its transcatheter, Palmetto System for mitral valve replacement.

"The complexity of mitral valve pathology creates challenges for transcatheter therapies to treat effectively. The first in human experience with this innovative technology shows promise for patients with advanced mitral valve regurgitation,” said Charles Davidson, MD.
"The features of the Palmetto System allow for transseptal mitral valve replacement in native mitral regurgitation. This case highlights the potential for this technology, which is another step forward for transseptal mitral valve replacement,” said Edris Aman, MD.
“The case is a major step forward in Re-Imaging the treatment of structural heart disease.

The system is design to avoid any disturbance to the left-ventricular outflow tract and if needed will allow for future valve replacement without compromising the orifice area. Preserving options for the physician and patient is an essential part of the solution to structure heart treatment.
