Mitral valve surgery after a failed MitraClip procedure.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Among patients undergoing transcatheter mitral valve repair with the MitraClip device, a relevant proportion (2-6%) requires open mitral valve surgery within 1 year after unsuccessful clip implantation. The goal of this review is to pool data from different reports to provide a comprehensive overview of mitral valve surgery outcomes after the MitraClip procedure and estimate in-hospital and follow-up mortality.

Methods

All published clinical studies reporting on surgical intervention for a failed MitraClip procedure were evaluated for inclusion in this meta-analysis. The primary study outcome was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes were in-hospital adverse events and follow-up mortality. Pooled estimate rates and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of study outco
