Key result
Implantation of two MitraClip devices in a patient with severe ischemic mitral regurgitation resulted in a concomitant iatrogenic atrial septal defect and left to right shunt.
Case Report (n=1)
Highlights the occurrence of iatrogenic atrial septal defect following MitraClip implantation and raises the clinical question of whether and when it should be closed.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May warrant monitoring for persistent iASD post-MitraClip; leaves open net hemodynamic effects in larger cohorts.
