Case report: Concomitant MitraClip implantation for severe mitral regurgitation and plug closure of endocarditis induced fistula between aortic root and left atrium after transcatheter aortic valve implantation.
Ben RenPeter P T de JaegereNicolas M D A van MieghemPublished in: European heart journal. Case reports (2021)
Our case illustrates a complex transcatheter structural heart intervention with improvised procedural strategies based on the intra-procedural TOE findings. We conclude that the pre-procedural TOE needs to be comprehensive rather than exclusive, particularly in the context of bioprosthesis-related endocarditis.
