It was reported that a triclip procedure was performed to treat functional tricuspid regurgitation (tr) with a grade of 5+ on a patient with 4 leaflets with a central gap and a previous aortic valve replacement and a previous left atrial appendage (laa) closure device.A triclip was inserted and deployed on the tricuspid valve.However, difficulties visualizing the clip occurred, and post deployment, the clip detached from the anterior leaflet and remained attached to the other leaflet (single leaflet device attachment/slda).A second clip, a triclip xtw was then inserted and deployed on the tricuspid valve, reducing tr to a grade of 4-5.There was no clinically significant delay in the procedure.
