Abstract
Secondary mitral valve regurgitation is a frequent consequence of left ventricular dysfunction in patients with severe heart failure. The management of this disease can be challenging since it often culminates in refractory pulmonary edema and multi-organ failure. We present the case of a 50-year-old male who was admitted in cardiogenic shock following myocardial infarction. After successful revascularization, percutaneous mitral valve repair using the MitraClip(®) device enabled weaning from extracorporeal membrane oxygenation followed by the implantation of a left ventricular assist device as bridge to transplant.
