Figure 1
A – Baseline TEE documenting significant mitral regurgitation. Bicommissural view. B – TEE images after implantation of the first MitraClip. The residual MR is still present, bicommissural and LVOT view and in the 3D TEE reconstruction – the MR jet visible in the lateral part of the double orifice of the mitral valve. C – TEE images of iatrogenic perforation of the anterior leaflet. I – bicommissural. II – bicommissural view with color Doppler imaging of significant MR jet. III – 3D reconstruction perforation of the anterior leaflet

Figure 2
A – TEE images after implantation of the Amplatzer septal occluder (11 mm) into the lateral orifice of the mitral valve. I – bicommissural view, II – LVOT view. B – Angiographic image of the final effect of the procedure: two MitraClips and ASO device implanted laterally
