Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair (MitraClip)
HCPCS 33418
Transcatheter mitral valve repair, percutaneous approach, including transseptal puncture when performed; initial prosthesis
AI EXPLANATION: Transcatheter mitral valve repair is a minimally invasive procedure to treat a leaky mitral valve, a condition where blood flows backward inside the heart. Instead of open-heart surgery, a doctor inserts a thin, flexible tube called a catheter into a blood vessel in the groin and guides it into the heart. Through this tube, a tiny clip device is attached to the flaps of the mitral valve, helping it close more completely and restoring normal blood flow.
