It was reported that on 19feb2024, a patient presented with grade 4 functional mitral regurgitation (mr) for a mitraclip procedure.One mitraclip xtw was implanted and the mr was reduced to grade 2.On 20feb2024, a transthoracic echocardiogram (tte) displayed a single leaflet device attachment (slda) and recurrent grade 3+ mr.The posterior leaflet was detached.Per the physician, the slda was due to the clip being too close to the lateral indentation and grasped in the indentation area.On 26feb2024, a second clip intervention was performed.An xt was place medial to the slda on anterior 2 and posterior 2 leaflet segments (a2/p2).There was residual mr from the lateral indentation.The mr was reduced to grade 2+.The procedure was successful.No additional information was provided.
