Event or Problem Description

|
This event was captured based on a review of the article, percutaneous edge to edge mitral valve repair with the mitraclip system in barlows disease.It was reported that a (b)(6)-year-old male patient with barlow¿s disease underwent a mitraclip procedure to treat degenerative mitral regurgitation with grade 4.One clip was implanted reducing mr to 2.On 30 day and 12 months follow up, the device and procedure were a success.On last follow up (60 month) visit, the patient had recurrent mr which was treated with a second mitraclip procedure.Two additional clips were implanted.However, despite the implantation of another two clips (three clips in total) early recurrence of mr occurred due to the leaflet perforation and the patient underwent urgent mitral valve replacement.No additional information was provided.
