Mitral repair on the edge: a case report of redo transcatheter mitral edge-to-edge repair for recurrent regurgitation in Complex lateral jet anatomy.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality if left untreated. While surgical repair remains the gold standard, mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) is an established alternative for patients at high surgical risk. However, recurrent MR after initial M-TEER remains a therapeutic challenge and is associated with poor outcomes.

Case summary

A 77-year-old patient presented with recurrent heart failure symptoms due to MR after prior CARILLON^® device implantation for secondary MR at an external hospital in September 2019. Transoesophageal echocardiography revealed degenerative mitral valve disease characterized by a complex combination of posterior leaflet prolapse and anterior leaflet flail, re
