One million individuals aged 65 and over are affected by heart valve disease in the UK. Given the rapidly ageing population, the prevalence of clinically significant valve disease is projected to double by 2050 [1]. These forecasts carry serious implications for healthcare providers tasked with addressing the needs of this growing cohort of patients, who are mostly too old and frail for open-heart surgery. Aortic stenosis and mitral regurgitation are the most frequent valve conditions. Both share an adverse prognosis and a lack of effective medical therapies. In response, there have been groundbreaking developments in minimally-invasive transcatheter technology to implant bioprosthetic devices in the failing native valve. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is already established as an alternative to conventional surgery for inoperable and high/intermediate-risk patients, and trials in low-risk cohorts are currently being concluded. Within 5 years, TAVI is likely to become the default treatment for the majority of patients with aortic stenosis. Based upon this paradigm shift, attention is now firmly focused on transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR). Unlike TAVI, TMVR requires sophisticated engineering solutions to address the unique challenges posed by the heterogeneity and complexity of mitral valve anatomy and physiology, and its interaction with the left ventricle. Specific concerns include difficulty in anchoring the device to the deformed mitral annulus (with risk of valve migration or paravalvular leak), and potential for left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction by the implanted valve (with risk of refractory heart failure and late mortality)[2, 3]. The latter is the most important and independent predictor of 30-day and 1-year mortality in patients with mitral annular calcification under-
