Nowadays, Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair (TMVRe) technologies are rapidly expanding with the future potential to be adopted as a valuable alternative to surgery in selected patients. TMVRe devices can be distinguished based on the targeted component of the Mitral Valve (MV) apparatus and classified into leaflet repair, direct/indirect annuloplasty, chordal repair and ventricular/chamber remodeling. The present chapter will analyze the broad spectrum of these technologies.

Abstract
Nowadays, Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair (TMVRe) technologies are rapidly expanding with the future potential to be adopted as a valuable alternative to surgery in selected patients. TMVRe devices can be distinguished based on the targeted component of the Mitral Valve (MV) apparatus and classified into leaflet repair, direct/indirect annuloplasty, chordal repair and ventricular/chamber remodeling. The present chapter will analyze the broad spectrum of these technologies.
