Referral to surgery is, however, frequently delayed. During this time, the patients often deteriorate. We retrospectively analysed patients before MitraClip implantation and after mitral valve surgery.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>METHODS<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>A total of 49 patients who received a mitral valve replacement (average 8\u2009\u00b1\u200912\u2009months after MitraClip implantation) were assessed. Of these, 53% had 2\u20134 clips inserted. The mean age was 73\u2009years, and the mean log EuroSCORE was 20.79\u2009\u00b1\u200914.42%. Echocardiographic data obtained prior to MitraClip implantation and preoperatively, 10\u2009days and 6 and 12\u2009months after cardiac surgery were reviewed. Survival analysis, risk profile and postoperative complications were analysed.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>The 30-day and 1-year mortality was 26.5% and 59.2%, respectively. Prior to MitraClip implantation, 42.8% of patients had mild tricuspid insufficiency and 6.1% had moderate tricuspid insufficiency. Prior to surgery, 26.5% showed mild, 32.7% moderate and 38.8% severe tricuspid insufficiency (P\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001). Furthermore, right heart function assessed by tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion deteriorated significantly after Implantation of the MitraClip (P\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001). In patients with a MitraClip, the pulmonary artery pressure was significantly higher at the time of mitral replacement than it was before the MitraClip was implanted (P\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>A subgroup of patients does not benefit from a MitraClip and shows progressive deterioration in cardiac function, making valve replacement under difficult circumstances inevitable. The earlier these patients are operated on, the better it is. It can be assumed that some patients would be better off with primary surgery, especially if mitral reconstruction is then still feasible. Therefore, the indications for MitraClip implantation should be carefully considered and caution should be exercised during monitoring.<\/jats:p>\n
