Key result
Redo MitraClip repair was successfully performed for late recurrent severe mitral regurgitation secondary to progressive degenerative mitral valve disease after an initial successful procedure.
Why the study?
Data are sparse on the management of recurrent severe mitral regurgitation after an initial successful MitraClip repair.
Case Report (n=1)
Redo MitraClip repair may be a feasible option for patients presenting with late recurrent severe mitral regurgitation after an initial successful procedure.
Redo MitraClip may be feasible for late recurrent severe MR; hypothesis-generating and leaves open need for prospective safety data.
Transcatheter mitral valve repair using the MitraClip (Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, CA) is a reasonable option for the treatment of patients with severe symptomatic degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR) who are at prohibitive surgical risk. The occurrence of recurrent severe MR after initial successful MitraClip repair is uncommon. Data are sparse on the management of recurrent severe MR after initial successful repair using the MitraClip. We describe a successful case of redo MitraClip repair for late recurrent severe MR secondary to progressive degenerative mitral valve disease after a successful initial MitraClip procedure and review the literature.
