Abstract:
Percutaneous transcatheter mitral valve reconstruction in edge to edge fashion is a well-established option in inoperable or high peri-operative risk patients with severe, symptomatic mitral valve regurgitation. MitraClip in combination with medical treatment improves survival and reduces hospitalization rates compared with optimal medical therapy alone in well selected patients. Clip-associated endocarditis is a rare complication with only few reported cases in the literature. We present a case of late infective endocarditis post Mitral Clip implantation and also review the literature regarding this new rare condition.
