      An 82-year-old patient was referred for a MitraClip (Abbott, Chicago, IL) procedure in the context of recurrent mitral regurgitation (MR). Three years before, the patient had undergone surgical mitral valve repair (SMVR) (neochordae on the anterior leaflet A2, 24-mm Physio-Ring, Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA) for degenerative MR (A2 prolapse with a 40-mm annulus dilatation), tricuspid repair, and replacement of the ascending aorta with a prosthetic tube. The final result after SMVR showed a mean gradient of 6 mm Hg and a trivial leak. Six years earlier, he underwent a first sternotomy to replace a severely stenotic aortic valve (bioprosthesis).
