Abstract
The clinical predominance of suture dehiscence at the septal annulus, despite its greater ex vivo holding strength, suggests either adverse suture placement techniques in this region or asymmetric tensile loading after implantation. This issue highlights the need to optimize implantation techniques and to carefully assess anchor security in existing and next-generation FTR corrective devices.
