This is filed to report death, thrombosis, heart failure.It was reported in a research article that the patient had functional mitral regurgitation (fmr) with a grade of 3+.A mitraclip device was implanted, reducing mr to 1+.Follow up echocardiography showed the formation of a large thrombus which was absent before the procedure.The patient did not show any major adverse events during the hospital stay but expired due to left ventricular failure three months after the procedure.Additional details can be found in the attached article "dangerous liaison: successful percutaneous edge-to-edge mitral valve repair in patients with end-stage systolic heart failure can cause left ventricular thrombus formation".
