Heart Int. 2020 Dec 23;14(2):86-91. doi: 10.17925/HI.2020.14.2.86. eCollection 2020.

Abstract

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement has revolutionised the treatment of aortic valve disease. The Myval™ device (Meril Life Sciences Pvt. Ltd., Gujarat, India) is a CE-marked, next-generation balloon-expandable transcatheter heart valve, designed for the treatment of severe aortic valve stenosis. This review illustrates the salient technical features of this transcatheter valve, pre-clinical studies and evidence from the first-in-human trial. We also provide a brief overview of planned clinical trials and registries.

Keywords: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation; balloon-expandable; newer-generation transcatheter heart valve; severe aortic stenosis; transcatheter heart valve.
