Abstract
- With the advent of transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR), the concept of the neo-left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) was introduced and remains an essential component of treatment planning. This paper describes the LVOT anatomy and provides a step-by-step computed tomography methodology to segment and measure the neo-LVOT while discussing the current evidence and outstanding challenges. It also discusses the technical and hemodynamic factors that play a major role in assessing the neo-LVOT. A summary of expert-based recommendations about the overall risk of LVOT obstruction in different scenarios is presented along with the currently available methods to reduce the risk of LVOT obstruction and other post-procedural complications.<br />Competing Interests: Funding Support and Author Disclosures Dr. Wang has served as a consultant for Edwards Lifesciences and Boston Scientific; has received research grant support from Boston Scientific; and had patents on left ventricular outflow tract prediction modeling software assigned to assigned to her employer (Henry Ford Health System).
