    Description of Event or Problem · 0

    IT WAS REPORTED IN THIS ARTICLE SUMMARY IN WHICH THE STUDY EVALUATED THE INCIDENCE, MANAGEMENT, AND OUTCOME OF PATIENTS WHO EXPERIENCED MITRACLIP (ABBOTT VASCULAR) FAILURE SECONDARY TO LOSS OF LEAFLET INSERTION (LLI), SINGLE LEAFLET DETACHMENT (SLD), OR EMBOLIZATION. A TOTAL OF 147 CASES OF MITRACLIP FAILURE WERE DETECTED (OVERALL INCIDENCE = 3.5%), AND THESE WERE SECONDARY TO LLI [WHICH WAS CLASSIFIED AS THE CLIP STILL ATTACHED AT BOTH LEAFLETS BUT WITH A DAMAGE ON IT; THE INJURY COULD RESULT IN A TEAR, PERFORATION, OR SHAPE DISTORTION] OR SLD IN 47 (31.9%) AND 99 (67.3%) CASES, RESPECTIVELY, WHEREAS IN 1 (0.8%) CASE CLIP EMBOLIZATION WAS OBSERVED. MITRACLIP FAILURE OCCURRED IN 67 (45.5%) PATIENTS WITH FUNCTIONAL MR, IN 64 (43.5%) PATIENTS WITH DEGENERATIVE MR, AND 16 (10.8%) WITH MIXED ETIOLOGY. ALTHOUGH THE MAJORITY OF MITRACLIP FAILURES WERE DETECTED BEFORE DISCHARGE (47 INTRAPROCEDURAL AND 42 IN THE HOSPITAL), UP TO 39.5% OF CASES WERE DIAGNOSED AT FOLLOW-UP. IN TOTAL, 80 (54.4%) SUBJECTS UNDERWENT A REDO PROCEDURE, EITHER PERCUTANEOUSLY WITH MITRACLIP (N = 51, 34.7%) OR SURGICALLY (N = 36, 24.5%) INCLUDING 4 CASES OF SURGICAL CONVERSION OF THE INDEX PROCEDURE AND 7 CASES OF BAILOUT SURGERY AFTER UNSUCCESSFUL REDO MITRACLIP. AFTER A MEDIAN FOLLOW-UP OF 163 DAYS (IQR: 22-720 DAYS), 50 (43.9%) SUBJECTS PRESENTED MODERATE TO SEVERE MR, AND 43 (29.3%) PATIENTS DIED. AN UP-FRONT REDO MITRACLIP STRATEGY WAS ASSOCIATED WITH A TREND TOWARD A REDUCED RATE OF DEATH AT FOLLOW-UP VS SURGICAL OR CONSERVATIVE MANAGEMENT (P = 0.067), WHEREAS POSTPROCEDURAL ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY, AGE, AND MODERATE TO SEVERE TRICUSPID REGURGITATION WERE INDEPENDENT PREDICTORS OF DEATH. MITRACLIP FAILURE SECONDARY TO LLI AND SLD IS NOT A RARE PHENOMENON AND MAY OCCUR DURING AND ALSO BEYOND HOSPITALIZATION. REDO MITRACLIP STRATEGY DEMONSTRATES A TREND TOWARD A REDUCED RISK OF DEATH COMPARED WITH BAILOUT SURGERY AND CONSERVATIVE MANAGEMENT. A THIRD OF THOSE PATIENTS REMAINED WITH MORE THAN MODERATE MR AND HAD SUBSTANTIAL MORTALITY AT THE INTERMEDIATE-TERM FOLLOW-UP. DETAILS ARE LISTED IN THE ATTACHED ARTICLE, MANAGEMENT AND OUTCOME OF FAILED PERCUTANEOUS EDGE-TO-EDGE MITRAL VALVE PLASTY: INSIGHT FROM AN INTERNATIONAL REGISTRY. NO ADDITIONAL INFORMATION WAS PROVIDED.
