Abstract
Percutaneous mitral valve repair has become an alternative to surgical MV repair in high-risk patients. It is primarily indicated in severe functional or degenerative MV regurgitation. The MitraClip system is a catheter- based device that places a stitch at the edge of the anterior and posterior mitral leaflets. Here, we describe a case of recurrent pulmonary edema secondary to severe MV regurgitation after treatment with an annuloplasty ring who was treated successfully using the MitraClip system.
