Abstract:
We present the case of an 82-year-old man with a history of inferior vena cava filter implantation and concomitant severe mitral regurgitation requiring transcatheter edge-to-edge repair. Despite being deemed ineligible for transfemoral access as technically challenging, he successfully underwent mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair after crossing and dilatation of the inferior vena cava filter. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).
