Population
One 84-year-old patient with severe mitral and tricuspid regurgitation and multiple comorbidities
Comparison
Simultaneous mitral and tricuspid valve repair using MitraClip system
Design
Case report
Single-access simultaneous MitraClip repair appears feasible in high-risk elderly patients; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before broader adoption.
We present a case of an 84-year old patient with severe mitral and tricuspid regurgitation with a lot of cormobidities who underwent a simultaneous transfemoral (one approach) mitral and tricuspid valve repair using the MitraClip system.
