This video demonstrates a patient with a failed MitraClip placement on the tricuspid valve, which led to severe tricuspid regurgitation, heart failure, and a dilated mitral annulus that required repair. The procedure included the removal of the MitraClip and the placement of an Abbott valve in the tricuspid position.
